SBT Assembly - Deduplicate error & Exclude error

Question

I am trying to build a JAR with dependencies using sbt-assembly. But I am running into this error again and again. I have tried multiple different things but I end up here. I am pretty new to SBT and wanted to get some help on this one. Here are the build.sbt & assembly.sbt files.

build.sbt

seq(assemblySettings: _*)

name := "StreamTest"

version := "1.0"

scalaVersion := "2.10.4"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-core" % "1.1.0"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" % "spark-streaming-kinesis-asl_2.10" % "1.1.0"

project/assembly.sbt

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.11.2")

When I run the sbt assembly command, I am getting this error below.

sbt-version

0.13.6

EDIT

Now after looking around I have made another change to exclude any dependencies, as part of another question on stackoverflow.

Updated build.sbt

seq(assemblySettings: _*)

name := "StreamTest"

version := "1.0"

scalaVersion := "2.10.4"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-core" % "1.1.0"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" % "spark-streaming-kinesis-asl_2.10" % "1.1.0"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
    exclude("org.eclipse.jetty.orbit", "javax.servlet").
    exclude("org.eclipse.jetty.orbit", "javax.transaction").
    exclude("org.eclipse.jetty.orbit", "javax.mail").
    exclude("org.eclipse.jetty.orbit", "javax.activation").
    exclude("commons-beanutils", "commons-beanutils-core").
    exclude("commons-collections", "commons-collections").
    exclude("commons-collections", "commons-collections").
    exclude("com.esotericsoftware.minlog", "minlog")
)

When I run the assembly command again, this is the error that I get.

build.sbt:14: error: not found: value exclude
    exclude("org.eclipse.jetty.orbit", "javax.servlet").
    ^

EDIT 2:

Updated build.sbt

import AssemblyKeys._

seq(assemblySettings: _*)

name := "SparkStreamingKinesis"

version := "1.0"

scalaVersion := "2.10.4"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" %% "spark-core" % "1.1.0"

libraryDependencies += "org.apache.spark" % "spark-streaming-kinesis-asl_2.10" % "1.1.0"

assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly := {
    case PathList(ps @ _*) if ps.last endsWith ".RSA" => MergeStrategy.first
    case x =>
       val oldStrategy = (assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly).value
       oldStrategy(x)
}

After making the update, here is the error that I am getting. I tried to do an import of assemblyMergeStrategy, but it doesn't look like a class that I can import.

build.sbt:21: error: not found: value assemblyMergeStrategy
assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly := {
^
[error] Type error in expression

Solution

Try this one to exclude only ECLIPSEF.RSA file, because excluding whole dependencies, which your libraries may need, is a bad idea :)

Deduplication error in build.sbt when building a fat jar using sbt assembly

Solution for latest 0.12.0 version of assembly plugin:

assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly := {
    case PathList(ps @ _*) if ps.last endsWith ".RSA" => MergeStrategy.first 
    case x =>
       val oldStrategy = (assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly).value
       oldStrategy(x)
}

project/assembly.sbt

addSbtPlugin("com.eed3si9n" % "sbt-assembly" % "0.12.0")

See https://github.com/sbt/sbt-assembly#merge-strategy

P.S. About exclude: you can't just specify exclude in libraryDependencies - you need something like this: "log4j" % "log4j" % "1.2.15" exclude("javax.jms", "jms"). See Library Management

Comments

[macha]

thank you for the quick reply dk14. When I added the assemblyMergeStrategy, I ran into another error. I have updated the question.

[dk14]

just add import AssemblyKeys._

[macha]

hey dk14, I added it to the build.sbt file but I still get the same error.

[dk14]

Move to the latest version of plugin: 0.12.0 + sbt 0.13.6+. If you have older version of sbt - check this answer stackoverflow.com/questions/25925233/…
