sbt-compat is an sbt plugin that backports parts of sbt 1's public API on top of
sbt 0.13 implementation.
The idea of providing the latest (and greatest) API on top of older versions comes from Miles Sabin's macro-compat where the newer macro APIs are provided for older versions of Scala.
Add this plugin to your sbt plugin (in build.sbt, NOT project/plugins.sbt):
libraryDependencies += Defaults.sbtPluginExtra(
"com.dwijnand" % "sbt-compat" % "1.0.0",
(sbtBinaryVersion in pluginCrossBuild).value,
(scalaBinaryVersion in update).value
)
Once sbt 0.13.17 is released with the fix to sbt/sbt#3393 this will simplify to:
addSbtPlugin("com.dwijnand" % "sbt-compat" % "1.0.0")
Use sbt 1's API, importing the relevant packages.
It might be necessary to wildcard import at times, and sometimes it might be necessary to import sbt.compat._.
