Yep, that should be all that's needed.
I believe IntelliJ just uses the sbt server under the hood, so things
should "just work". We won't know for sure until we test it, but we use
plugins for other things (e.g. sbt-cc, native-packager) that I assume
work find with IntelliJ.

If we make this an sbt plugin, then one would add a daffodil plugin to a
plugins.sbt in the project directory yes?
Along the lines of adding this line to each schema projects'
project/plugins.sbt
addSbtPlugin("org.apache.daffodil" % "daffodil-sbt-plugin" % "3.5.0")
This would need to be updated to change daffodil releases, rather than
editing versions of library dependencies in the build.sbt file.
Do I have that about right?
I am concerned about IntelliJ IDEA integration - I still want it to work
smoothly for IntelliJ IDEA to be able to discover the dependencies and
classpath so that one can easily debug.

I really like this idea of centralizing a test framework for DFDL schemas
for all the reasons you mentioned. It would also serve to help structure
DFDL repositories, reduce burden on schema authors, and institute best
practices.

I am having trouble regression testing schemas in bulk against the
3.4.0-RC1.
The challenge is that there are 70+ such schemas. All of them have
build.sbt which require updating, not just for the daffodil version
3.4.0 dependency, but for other dependencies that are no longer up to
date.
I have a suggestion.
In order to make it easy to test DFDL schemas against daffodil, and to
make the conflicting dependencies maintenance issue as simple as
possible, that we create a daffodil module named
daffodil-schema-sbt-test.
This module exists soley so that we have one single daffodil module
that a DFDL schema project can depend on, which drags in the
dependencies needed for testing a schema in the usual convenient sbt
manner.
The build.sbt for a DFDL schema would (usually) contain a single
dependency. For example suppose our new module is named
daffodil-schema-sbt-test.
name := "dfdl-jpeg"
organization := "com.mitre"
version := "0.0.1"
libraryDependencies := Seq(
"org.apache.daffodil" %% "daffodil-schema-sbt-test" % "3.4.0" %
"test"
)
That module's transitive dependencies would drag in, as dependencies,
scala and the scala library (I hope), as well as daffodil-tdml-lib,
junit-interface, junit, scala-xml, and any other modules that a schema
project might typically want to use but which are also possibly
conflicting dependencies in daffodil.
This way the DFDL schema would inherit the specific versions for those
dependencies from Daffodil, instead of stating them explicitly itself
which creates a maintenance problem.
Now, I'm not at all sure how to achieve this in sbt. But the build.sbt
for a DFDL schema really needs to be something that does NOT have a
bunch of modules/versions in it that require updating for each
daffodil release.
Thoughts?
