Sbt alternative to "mvn install -DskipTests"

Question

I'm trying to instal sbt based project to local maven repository. I have tried commands:

• "sbt publish" - require repository credentials
• "sbt publish-local" install to .ivy repositry, but I need maven!

How can I do such operation in terms of SBT?

Answer 1

The SBT wiki has the goods. Just define the repo (look for "Publishing to the users local maven repository" on the linked page) and invoke "publish".

Answer 2

Using SBT 0.13 and without editing the project source files:

• Create (or edit) a global.sbt file in ~/.sbt/0.13:

  vim ~/.sbt/0.13/global.sbt

• Add the following line:

  publishTo := Some(Resolver.file("file", new File(Path.userHome.absolutePath+"/.m2/repository")))

• Save and close the file

• Run sbt publish from the project folder
