How it works

We pull poms from Bintray and we receive poms from Maven Central or Scaladex. Your library has to be published to one of those repositories.

• How to publish on Maven Central
• How to publish on Scaladex

Process:

• We discover Scala release based on the pom filename. A common practice is to include the scala compiler version in the artifactId. We search for .pom files containing _2.10, _2.11 and _2.12. If you dont follow this convention add your releases to non-standard.json
• We download pom and parent poms
• We read them, 10% are invalid (most common issue: duplicated tags see sbt/sbt#2566)
• We inspect the pom file for scm tag (source control management). If you forgot to add a scm tag claim your library to claims.json
• We download content and metadata from GitHub (Readme, Avatar, Descriptions, etc)
