Missing or invalid dependency

[sbuljat]

If my published artifact has a dependency on MongoDB driver library then project which depends on my library cannot compile without explicit MongoDB library dependency in build.sbt. Shouldn't it retrieve as transitive dependency? Tried maven and ivy style...same

Hi @sbuljat.
Can you show the build.sbt files of the project that depends on MongoDB and the the other one that depends on it? Also the version of sbt used and the error message could be useful.

Hi @laughedelic

Here's build.sbt from project 1:

name := "project-id"

organization  := "com.project"

version := "1.0.4"

publishTo := {
  val prefix = if (isSnapshot.value) "snapshots" else "releases"
  Some(s3resolver.value("Releases", s3("releases.project.com")) withMavenPatterns)
}

s3credentials := file(".s3credentials")

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
    "org.scalatest" %% "scalatest" % "2.2.4"    % "test",
    "com.typesafe" % "config" % "1.3.0",
    "org.mongodb" %% "casbah" % "3.0.0"
)

Here's build.sbt from project 2:

name := "project-ner"

organization  := "com.project"

version := "1.0.1"

scalaVersion := "2.11.7"

s3credentials := file(".s3credentials")

resolvers ++= Seq[Resolver](
   s3resolver.value("Releases", s3("releases.project.com")).withMavenPatterns
)

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
   "org.scalatest" %% "scalatest" % "2.2.4" % "test",
   "com.typesafe" %   "config" % "1.3.0",
   "com.project" %%  "project-id" % "1.0.4"
)

Error in project 2:

Wow 😮 I see such error for the first time. After quick googling I think it's some internal scala/sbt issue (also here). But this SO question suggests that probably you can add some other mongodb related dependency and it will help. Here, unfortunately, I cannot help you.

And a couple of things related to the sbt-s3-resolver plugin:

• at the moment it doesn't support resolving maven dependencies (we have Resolving private Maven dependencies #7, but no much progress there)
• although if the published maven artifacts are public, you still can resolve them

at the moment it doesn't support resolving maven dependencies (we have #7, but no much progress there)

any updates on this one?

[laughedelic]

@Liorba you mean #7?

At the moment we don't use this functionality ourselves, and we don't have time to implement it. So if anybody will make a pull-request, it will be good.

@laughedelic yes..
