Would it be possible to append a timestamp to the generated zip's filename you get when executing the dist command?
Lets say my project name is "backend", and the current dev version is 0.2.3-SNAPSHOT. What I would like to do is execute the dist command and get a file called backend-0.2.3-SNAPSHOT-20150506.zip.
However, I only want to append the timestamp when doing dist on a snapshot version, not a production version (0.2.3 for example).
I'm using Play 2.4.0-RC1 and sbt 0.13.8
import com.typesafe.sbt.packager.Keys._
packageName in Universal := {
val name = (packageName in Universal).value
def timestamp = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd") format new java.util.Date()
if (isSnapshot.value) s"$name-$timestamp" else name
}
Here's what dist does with version := "1.0-SNAPSHOT" and version := "1.0" (removing some noise):
