Loading current sbt project in ammonite repl like "sbt console" in current project directory

[pamu]

sbt console in the current sbt project loads the project into to the repl. Is it possible to do the same with ammonite repl as well.

something like this

sbt console

output: loading current sbt project ....
similarly

amm console

output: loading current sbt project....

This is probably made redundant by the fact you can already run Ammonite in any SBT project pretty trivially

@lihaoyi i dont think its trivial, i just failed to do this with use of docs description (probably dont know sbt enough and got multi-module project here). while searching for solution to the problem found this ticket.

i think you should reevaluate this feature request. easier level of entry is always welcome i guess.

Another thought: It would be very nice to be able to say "Run this script in the context of this sbt project."

import $sbt:~/Dev/myrepo/

would be very exciting.

I disagree and agree with @prozz . I'm also trying to figure out how to run ammonite inside an sbt session the same I can sbt 'project myproject' 'console'.

Any directions?

Agreed, just spent close to two hours trying to get Ammonite running and gave up.

Since there's a little recent chatter, I thought I'd add that I found the linked instructions to mostly work... except that sbt kept forking. Adding this line to build.sbt let me start Ammonite with sbt test:run:

Test / run / fork := false
