sbt-concat

sbt-web plugin for concatenating files together, using the sbt-web asset pipeline.

Plugin

Add the plugin to your project/plugins.sbt:

addSbtPlugin("com.github.sbt" % "sbt-concat" % "1.0.0")

Enable the sbt-web plugin for your project:

lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(SbtWeb)

Add the concat task to your asset pipeline in your build.sbt:

pipelineStages := Seq(concat)

Configuration options

Specifying concat groups

Below is an example of specifying concat groups within your build.sbt file. You can use PathFinder objects or a Seq[String] to specify the files to concatenate together.

Concat.groups := Seq(
  "style-group.css" -> group(Seq("css/style1.css", "css/style2.css")),
  "script-group.js" -> group(Seq("js/script1.js", "js/script2.js")),
  "style-group2.css" -> group((sourceDirectory.value / "assets" / "style") * "*.css")
)

Note that with a PathFinder, you will need to take care to ensure that the files it selects will be concatenated in the order that you desire.

To match entries in Seq[String] in group PathMapping is used. Only relative paths up to one level deep are guaranteed match.

This will produce three files with concatenated contents:

style-group.css

/** css/style1.css **/
body { color: #000; }
/** css/style2.css **/
#main { background-color: #fff; }

script-group.js

/** js/script1.js **/
function onDomReady(){ ... }
/** js/script2.js **/
$(onDomReady);

style-group2.css

/** assets/style/main.css **/
body { font-weight: bold; }
/** assets/style/base.css **/
section { font-size: 15em; }

These will reside under the asset build directory in the base target directory by default. You can change the name of this directory using the Concat.parentDir SettingKey.
