scalastyle_config
The Scalastyle configuration we use for our in-house Scala projects.
Using with the Scalastyle SBT plugin
Assuming your project already has the plugin setup, update your build.sbt to include the following settings:
scalastyleConfigUrl := Some("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zendesk/scalastyle_config/master/scalastyle-config.xml"),
scalastyleConfigUrlCacheFile := "scalastyle-config.xml",
scalastyleConfigRefreshHours := 168 // Weekly instead of daily.NOTE: if you're using a recent version of Zendesk's (internal) zendesk_sbt_base_settings plugin, then these settings are already setup for you.
The scalastyleConfigUrlCacheFile setting puts the downloaded file into the root of your repository, which is where IntelliJ expects it to be.
To ensure that the download config is not part of your Git repository, add a line containing scalastyle-config.xml to .gitignore (which can be in the root of your repository, or the global one).
