Create 'Bill of Materials' (BOM) POM files from sbt for consumption in Maven and Gradle.

sbt-bill-of-materials

A sbt plugin to generate Bill of Materials (BOM) pom.xml for use with Maven or Gradle.

• HowToDoInJava: Maven BOM – Bill Of Materials Dependency
• Apache Maven: Bill of Materials (BOM) POMs

A BOM for a Scala project may either

1. reference a single Scala minor version and create a BOM POM per Scala minor version, or choose to
2. list all its artifacts for their Scala versions in a single BOM POM.

Artifacts that typically appear as libraries should use 1. to ensure dependencies do not mix Scala minor versions.

For frameworks which give the user a pre-defined set of dependencies approach 2. may appear simpler. Lagom has been using approach 2. for many years.

Usage

Add the sbt plug-in in project/plugins.sbt

addSbtPlugin("com.lightbend.sbt" % "sbt-bill-of-materials" % <latest>)

Create a BOM per Scala minor version

Create an sbt (sub-)project which will produce the BOM. list the sbt projects to include in the BOM as bomIncludeProjects.

lazy val billOfMaterials = project
  .enablePlugins(BillOfMaterialsPlugin)
  .settings(
    name := "sample-library-bom",
    bomIncludeProjects := Seq(core, nonScala)
  )

Create the BOM pom.xml files with:

sbt +billOfMaterials/publishM2

Create a single BOM for all Scala versions

lazy val billOfMaterials = project
  .enablePlugins(BillOfMaterialsPlugin)
  .settings(
    name := "framework-sample-bom",
    // Just one BOM including all cross Scala versions
    crossVersion := CrossVersion.disabled,
    // Create BOM in the first runn
    crossScalaVersions := crossScalaVersions.value.take(1),
    bomIncludeProjects := Seq(core),
  )

Create the BOM pom.xml files with:

sbt billOfMaterials/publishM2
