If you are an emacs use, well of course you are, here is a small script to run sbt as an inferior-mode process from within emacs. It uses compile.el as well allowing one to migrate through the compiler errors.

Added, thanks!

A quick note for those trying to use Emacs + SBT + sbt.el on Windows. Be sure to disable JLine support by adding the system property -Djline.terminal=jline.UnsupportedTerminal? to your SBT invocation.

For whatever reason, Emacs can't handle subprocess I/O that goes through the Windows CON: device, which is what JLine seems to do.

Thanks for that tip. I've updated the page.

Any luck for Aquamacs Emacs users on OS X? The only good results I've had are to disable formatting with the property -Dsbt.log.noformat=true in my sbt script.

I tried: (ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on)

in my .emacs -- no joy.

The stuff on integration via IvyDE works, but doesn't include test dependencies. Based on this list posting:

http://groups.google.com/group/simple-build-tool/msg/0cf2afcea582a8d2

...I've added this to my project file:

  def ivyPublishConfiguration = 
    new DefaultPublishConfiguration("local", "release") {
      override protected def deliveredPathPattern = 
        outputPath / "[artifact].[ext]" 
      override def configurations =
        Some(List(Configurations.Compile, Configurations.Test))
    }

  lazy val deliverIvy = deliverTask(deliverIvyModule, ivyPublishConfiguration, false)

deliver-ivy creates a scala-version-specific ivy.xml in target/SCALA-VER

There is another way to run sbt wihtin Vim now: http://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-sbt

On scala I got the tip that there is a plugin for IDEA as well: http://github.com/mpeltonen/sbt-idea-plugin

Vim users don't miss this: http://github.com/romanroe/codefellow

There is a sbt plugin for sbt that works along with the Scala bundle at: http://www.sidewayscoding.com/2010/08/using-textmate-for-scala-development.html

It basically is a shell window next to your editing window, which works pretty well.

Thanks, updated.

Is there bash-completion support for sbt?

The sbt plugin for hudson should be probably be mentioned on this page as well. Here is the link. http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/sbt+plugin

Done, thanks.

Just for notes, I have recently started developing a plugin for jEdit. It is quickly improving, and is available at https://github.com/StefanE/SBT4jEdit

added, thanks.

To get the errorformat (efm) for vim to work correctly, I had to tell sbt not to output any color by changing the makeprg to include the -Dsbt.log.noformat=true switch, like

set makeprg=sbt\ -Dsbt.log.noformat=true\ compile

I have created a text editor with sbt integration. It is useful if you want to set up a lightweight programming environment for Scala quickly. http://scala-edit.googlecode.com

Interesting thanks!
