------------------------------------
Summary: Migrate from Maven to SBT
Key: MAHOUT-1654
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1654
Project: Mahout
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Reporter: Stevo Slavic
Assignee: Stevo Slavic
Mahout modules which are Scala libraries like mahout-math-scala,
mahout-spark/mahout-spark-shell, should be published across Scala binary
versions to be usable to wider audience. At the moment this is not possible
with Maven. We need to switch to another build tool which supports this, and
SBT is most natural choice. Besides allowing us to publish Mahout Scala
libraries across Scala binary versions, it is expected that this migration will
help us mitigate/resolve other issues (to name a few, issue of publishing
javadoc/scaladoc documentation, and long standing issue of migration to modern
CLI library with sources).
As acceptance criteria of migration success it should be defined that both
project committers and users see only improvements/benefits, everything else
that was possible and available with existing Maven build should be possible
with SBT.
