how to define artifacts using custom names in build.sbt

[rollinsruss]

Generally speaking I'm confused about how to provide dynamic names for
additional Artifact definitions. But, more specifically, my first case
to tackle is reusing the jarName from the Assembly plugin when calling
addArtifact in my build.sbt. Based on what I've read in the groups, my
initial attempt has come up short:

addArtifact(Artifact( (jarName){(name:String) => name},"jar","jar"),
assembly)

I thought using an apply on jarName would be sufficient to retrieve
its value, but I was wrong and this isn't working. Does the above
approach need slight tweaking?

Or would it be more appropriate to create a specific project-level
value and then reference it both in jarName definition as well as
addArtifact? Originally thought something like:

assembledName <<=(name,version){...}

would work, but that's also the wrong approach (error: not found:
value assembledName, and also error: reassignment to val)

Thanks for the help,

Hi Russ,

I've done something similar (although not using the assembly plugin) and have an example that publishes a custom artifact, where the published artifact uses the name of the main jar artifact as its name: http://pastie.org/2328797

You may be able to do something like this for your requirements.

Cheers, Arjan

Arjan,

Thanks for your contribution via Pastie! I just got back into the
office and have spent some time evaluating your suggestion.

Mark, is it possible to avoid creating a custom task in order to
create an Artifact entry on-the-fly with a reference to an existing
setting? I just need to pass in "jarName in Assembly" to
addArtifact(Artifact("jarName in Assembly","jar","jar"),assembly) and
am stuck on proper reference syntax.

Thanks,
-Russ-

Not in 0.10.1, but if you open a bug, it will make it into the next release.
