Ensime doesn't work with sbt + android-plugin

Question

i created a project by using this: https://github.com/gseitz/android-sbt-project.g8

When i start ensime in emacs to edit src/main/scala/Activity.scala i have red hig

Answer 1

Let Ensime know where it can find the android packages. Add a line to your .ensime file that contains the path to android.jar, for example:

:compile-jars (" [...] /local/share/java/android-sdk-mac_x86/platforms/android-10/android.jar")

Answer 2

The previous answer no longer works with newer versions of ensime. The new version requires something like

:compile-deps ("/home/aij/android/sdk/platforms/android-21/android.jar" ...)

Here's a one-liner to edit the file for you, assuming $ANDROID_HOME is set:

sed -i~ 's|:compile-deps (|:compile-deps ("'"$ANDROID_HOME"'/platforms/android-21/android.jar" |' .ensime

Anyway, this is still just a kludgy hack to get it to work. The proper fix would be to fix one of the two plugins.
