What are the default repositories that SBT uses?

Question

I can provide a ~/.sbt/repositories file to override the repositories that SBT uses for resolving dependencies. When the file is present the default repositories aren't used.

What are the default repositories in SBT (0.13)? I want to add them to my repositories file so I can resolve dependencies inside and outside the network without having to change/move the file.

Answer 1

If you want to add to the default repositories (instead of replacing them), I think the easiest would be to create an .sbt file inside ~/sbt/0.13/, e.g. ~/sbt/0.13/my-resolvers.sbt:

resolvers += "Oracle Repository" at "http://download.oracle.com/maven"

Otherwise, you can find out in the sbt console via show externalResolvers. The entries are stored in sbt.boot.properties, which ends up as the sbt/sbt.boot.properties file in the launcher jar (for example ~/.sbt/launchers/0.13.17/sbt-launch.jar):
