unable to "sbt run", No main class detected

[alanngai]

I'm trying to use scalabuf to generate scala code from protofiles, but I'm having trouble getting it to even run. I'm using scala 2.10.3, sbt 0.13.1, and java 1.7.0_21

after checking out the repo,

$ sbt run

so I ran sbt again to enter the console and ran the following to get the stack trace

[alanngai]

figured out the command should be

sbt 'project scalabuff-compiler' 'run --proto_path=.. --scala_out=...'

would be nice to see this in the documentation

[SandroGrzicic]

Actually, by default you should be in the scalabuff-compiler project
already. I'm guessing this is due to some change in sbt that I need to fix
(probably add a default project). Please reopen the ticket, I need to fix
the problem. Thanks for the report!

Also you can try using sbt-scalabuff (linked to from the readme) for easier
generation in your existing sbt project.

re-opening as requested

@SandroGrzicic I'm facing the same issue while compiling .proto files with following command,

> run --proto_path=src/main/resources/ --scala_out=src/main/scala/code/model/

from sbt-project$ ./sbt.

Me too - with an old version (1.2.0) though - and when I use the command above :
sbt 'project scalabuff-compiler' 'run --proto_path=.. --scala_out=...'

I runs, confirms a successful run, but does not generate any scala classes

but /path/to/scala has nothing in it

btw same thing runs with 1.2.2

[SandroGrzicic]

Have you tried the latest version (1.3.7)?

[lupiv]

Oh yes, It works like a charm with 1.3.7 - the only problem is that I"m using this with Spark which comes packaged with Protobuf 2.4.1 and using 1.3.7 creates conflicts. I had no choice but to go back in time and get 1.2.*

[SandroGrzicic]

Sorry to hear that. Have you been able to resolve this? I'm hoping a newer release of Spark has a newer Protobuf.
