I'm looking for maintainers of this project. I'm not actively working on sbt or Avro, and I won't be able to review pull-requests or fix bugs.
If you're interested in taking over this project, please create an issue.
sbt-avro is a plugin for sbt-0.13.0 (and 0.12.1) for generating the Java sources for Avro schemas and protocols.
Add the plugin according to the sbt documentation.
For instance, add the following lines to the file hello/project/build.sbt
in your
project directory:
resolvers += "sbt-plugin-releases" at "http://repo.scala-sbt.org/scalasbt/sbt-plugin-releases" addSbtPlugin("com.cavorite" % "sbt-avro" % "0.3.2")
To activate the plugin, import its settings by adding the following lines to
your hello/build.sbt
file:
seq( sbtavro.SbtAvro.avroSettings : _*)
All settings and tasks are in the avro
scope. If you want to execute the
generate
task directly, just run avro:generate
.

sbt-avro is maintained by Juan Manuel Caicedo. I wrote it based on sbt-protobuf (even this README file!). This is my first attempt to write an sbt plugin, so feel free to send your comments and bug reports.
