This project morphs the "org.scala-lang" % "scala-dist" % $version maven artifact
into a Scala $version distribution (zip, tar.gz, deb, rpm, and msi).
To build a distribution, run:
universal:packageBin- Builds the universal zip installeruniversal-docs:packageBin- Builds the universal documentation zipdebian:packageBin- Builds the Debian DEB file. requires dpkg-debrpm:packageBin- Builds the yum RPM file. requires rpmbuildwindows:packageBin- Builds the Windows MSI. requires WiX 3.6
Alternatively, the s3Upload task's mappings are configured based on the platform
the installer is running on. On Windows, it builds the MSI; on another platform,
it'll create and upload the other packages in the above list. (Use s3Upload::mappings for a dry-run.)
The version of Scala to package is derived from the most recent git tag,
or you can specify it using -Dproject.version.
This packager only works for Scala 2.11+ releases,
as earlier ones did not publish the scala-dist artifact to maven.
Due to limited resources, the native packages are quite rudimentary. We welcome new maintainers!
If you're looking for the editor configurations that used to be in the tool-support directory, please see https://github.com/scala/scala-tool-support. They were moved out because they no longer ship with the Scala distribution. (New maintainers are welcome on the scala-tool-support project!)
The specification also used to be in this repo -- it is now a part of the main repository over at scala/scala.

The branching structure mimics that of scala/scala: branches for 2.11.x, 2.12.x, etc.
