Sbt Unresolved Dependencies (Not a valid command: gen-idea)

I'm trying to get sbt to generate Intellij IDEA project files using the sbt-idea plugin as described here.

I've gone through the project's issues page and also Googled extensively, however I haven't discovered anyone else with this issue, causing me to believe that the problem is somewhat uncommon and likely to be related to an issue with my setup..

If anyone could shine a little light on this, it'd be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • Two changes have help resolve this and a number of other minor issues:

    1. I removed this line:

      addSbtPlugin("de.undercouch" % "sbt-docbook-plugin" % "0.2-SNAPSHOT")

      from /project/plugins.sbt

    2. I no longer run sbt commands from the commandline, I exclusively use the sbt console. That running '$ sbt gen-idea' fails, while '> gen-idea' in the sbt console succeeds, strikes me a somewhat odd. If I figure out why, I'll be sure to update with a comment.
