Configuring and controlling multiple resolvers

[nilius]

Hello great Scala-Steward team,

We ran into a special situation when using scala-steward 0.8.1 with multiple resolvers, which is difficult to solve for us. It would be great if you could help with advice!

We want to use two libraries. Since the second lib is not available in the default maven resolver, we add a resolver for confluent.

scalaVersion := "2.12.10"
resolvers += DefaultMavenRepository
resolvers += "Confluent Maven Repo" at "https://packages.confluent.io/maven"
lazy val compileDependencies = {
  Seq(
    "org.apache.kafka"            % "kafka-clients"            % "2.7.0",
    "io.confluent"                % "kafka-avro-serializer"    % "6.0.1",
  )
}
libraryDependencies ++= compileDependencies

Unfortunately, the lib org.apache.kafka/kafka-clients is available also in the confluent resolver:

• With version 6.0.1ce in https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.kafka/kafka-clients?repo=confluent-packages
• With version 2.7.0 in https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.kafka/kafka-clients

Therefore, the scala stewarts creates a MR to update kafka-clients to 6.0.1ce, but we want to the newest version from the default maven resolver, which is 2.7.0. Put in other words, we want org.apache.kafka/kafka-clients only to be resolved against the DefaultMavenRepository, not against the Confluent Resolver.

Is there any way to control which libs are taken from which resolver?

Thanks for ideas!

Fabian

I took the liberty to correct the usage of the terms "repository" and "resolver" in your issue to make the case (hopefully) more clear.
