How to disable ScalaDoc generation in dist task in Play 2.2.x (using project/build.scala)?


Adding the following settings to the build.sbt file of a Play 2.2.x app does not disable Scaladoc generation. How can it be disabled?

play.Project(appName, appVersion, appDependencies)
    .settings(scalaVersion := "2.10.3")
    .settings(jsSettings : _*)
    .settings(
        publishArtifact in (Compile, packageDoc) := false,
        publishArtifact in packageDoc := false
    )

Solution

  • Add the following settings to the Play project:

    sources in (Compile,doc) := Seq.empty
    publishArtifact in (Compile, packageDoc) := false
    

    With the change it should be as follows:

    play.Project(appName, appVersion, appDependencies)
        .settings(scalaVersion := "2.10.3")
        .settings(jsSettings : _*)
        .settings(
            publishArtifact in (Compile, packageDoc) := false,
            publishArtifact in packageDoc := false,
            sources in (Compile,doc) := Seq.empty
        )
