SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder"

[Kevin Kirsche]

Following the "Diving in" guide leaves issues.

First, I make a new project, make the following build.sbt file:

name := "Scala API Interaction Library"

version := "0.1.0"

scalaVersion := "2.11.6"

libraryDependencies +=
  "net.databinder.dispatch" %% "dispatch-core" % "0.11.2"

With that configured, I create a new file for my application to run from and populate it per the guide:

import dispatch._,  Defaults._

object Boot extends App {
  //try to start with making a very simple GET HTTP request
  val svc = url("http://rubygems.org/api/v1/downloads.json").GET
  val downloads = Http(svc OK as.String)

  for (d <- downloads)
    println(d)
}

Then try to run it with sbt followed by run and I get the following output:

[info] Running Boot
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.

Any help you could provide to help me get started would be greatly appreciated.

Oops. missed libraryDependencies += "ch.qos.logback" % "logback-classic" % "1.1.2" as it's not in the docs.
