sbt - How to copy files to target so they are used in run task? -

i re-create artifact repository target subdirectory, before invoke special run task.

// audit task must invoke run task, after re-create artifact in directory audit := { println("in audit") // 1. re-create artifact directory val auditagent = ((fullclasspath in test value) filter (_.data.getname.startswith("reactive-audit-agent"))).head.data val targetagent= target.value / "reactive-audit-libs" / "reactive-audit-agent.jar" io.copyfile(auditagent,targetagent) // 2. set javaopt. javaoptions += "-javagent:"+targetagent // 3. invoke run task javaagent ??? }

with sbt run run project. sbt audit run project specific javagent.

i seek utilize fullruntask(audit,...) extend audit task, body in audit not running

audit := { println("in audit") } fullruntask(audit, runtime, "com.octo.reactive.sample.testapp")

custom configuration update report

based upon configurations , update report i've figured out approach declare dependency , utilize in task. approach explicitly declares dependency on external file that's required task, become java agent.

what seem have missed in past revisions of reply requirement:

with sbt run run project. sbt audit run project specific javagent.

the next build.sbt gives solution (it assumes sbt 0.13.7-m3 the alter no blank lines - add together blank lines if don't want upgrade yet):

lazy val agent = config("agent") extend runtime inconfig(agent)(defaults.configsettings) sourcedirectory in agent <<= sourcedirectory in compile ivyconfigurations += agent // makes file available in ivy2 local repository librarydependencies += "org.aspectj" % "aspectjweaver" % "1.8.2" % "agent" fork in (agent, run) := true javaoptions in (agent, run) += "-javaagent:" + update.value.select(configurationfilter("agent")).filter(_.name.contains("aspectjweaver")).head addcommandalias("audit", "agent:run")

the build defines new hidden agent configuration dependency belongs configuration only.

using update (as described in update report) select declared dependency "agent" run, since configuration extend runtime had exclude other "transitive" dependencies (that runtime gives).

when execute run runs old run task - no changes here:

> run [info] running com.example.hello hello, world!

when run agent:run executes custom run in agent configuration (you see no alter unless alter - create typo in - -javaagent else breaks startup):

> agent:run [info] running com.example.hello [info] hello, world!

as final solution there's audit alias that's agent:run.

> audit [info] running com.example.hello [info] hello, world!

with solution sbt downloads dependency usual (so don't have worry if file exists or not , when not, build fail).

copying files directory using resource generators

how can re-create files directory, before run project ?

read page generating files find section generate resources says:

a resource generation task should generate resources in subdirectory of resourcemanaged , homecoming sequence of files generated.

do show resourcemanaged find out path that's default under target/scala-[scalaversion].
