This release includes two user-contributed enhancements:
- Move to latest version of Scalasti / StringTemplate V4 #144
- Resolve latest versions through Maven metadata #136
With the second of these, giter8 templates can refer to the latest published version of an artifact using metadata you're already publishing to the central repository.
In your
default.properties
, define a value asmaven(groupId, artifactId)
to have its latest version looked up from the central repo. Keep in mind that Scala projects are typically published with a Scala version identifier in the artifact id. So for the Unfiltered library, we could refer to the latest version as follows:
unfiltered_version = maven(net.databinder, unfiltered_2.11)
