embedding SBT builds
It would be great to be able to embed projects built with SBT as subprojects into CBT builds. This will allow to depend on SBT projects by source, (once we have GIT dependencies, which I'll start working on tonight).
This shouldn't be too hard actually. A cbt.Dependency subclass that delegates to a SBT build under the hood should do it.
Somebody with solid SBT knowledge wanna pick this up :)? @clhodapp @MasseGuillaume ?
sbt 1.0 will have a client - server architecture and sbt-remote-control has something similar already.
sbt dependsOn work by publishing artifact locally. You could do the same thing with the above api.
how about an sbt plugin to allow embedding cbt (sub-projects?) within sbt?
@ScalaWilliam yeah thought about it as well. just created a ticket for that: https://github.com/cvogt/cbt/issues/149
I experimented with calling sbt programmatically from cbt here: https://github.com/cvogt/cbt-sbt But it wasn't faster than calling it from the command line if I recall correctly. There also were probably also some other unresolved issues still.
