Automatically infer colons in dependency strings with new syntax

Open alexarchambault opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

It'd be nice to experiment in Scala CLI with a new syntax for dependency strings, so that users don't have to worry about the number of : in them. That syntax could look like

org.scalameta:munit 0.7.29

(single : between organization and name, space between name and version)

We could experiment with a parser for that in Scala CLI, using the coursier.Complete API in a first time to list available names and pick the best one.
