Collecting dependencies under sbt 0.10 (putting all dependency jars to target/scala-version/lib/)

Question

I\'m using sbt 0.10 with Scala 2.9.1.

I\'ve read http://groups.google.com/group/simple-build-tool/browse_thread/thread/792e5360877e78/987b6af687b8e33b?lnk=gst&q=coll

You didn't specify the ivy configuration to copy the configurations from but here's a fully working example that will copy all your managed dependencies to the target//lib folder (scala version is given by the crossTarget task). Just copy this and put it in the file project/Build.scala (or whatever filename you want) :

import sbt._
import Keys._

object MyBuild extends Build {

  lazy val copyDependencies = TaskKey[Unit]("copy-dependencies")

  def copyDepTask = copyDependencies <<= (update, crossTarget, scalaVersion) map {
    (updateReport, out, scalaVer) =>
    updateReport.allFiles foreach { srcPath =>
      val destPath = out / "lib" / srcPath.getName
      IO.copyFile(srcPath, destPath, preserveLastModified=true)
    }
  }

  lazy val root = Project(
    "root",
    file("."),
    settings = Defaults.defaultSettings ++ Seq(
      copyDepTask
    )
  )
}

If you want a specific configuration, replace

updateReport.allFiles by updateReport.select(configuration = Set("compile")) or whatever ivy configuration you want.
