Intellij 13.1.3 import project from sbt not working

Question

I have followed the instructions , attempting to either import from build.sbt or open project from build.sbt.

The end result is that the scala libraries are not imported as shown in the screenshot.

I have also tried sbt gen-idea from the command line.

This is just a problem that keeps surfacing..

Answer 1

If you are using Intellij, why don't you create scala sbt project? Then just add the libraries in the build.sbt and refresh the project or re-run the sbt gen-idea. The libraries will appear. See this link: http://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IntelliJIDEA/Getting+Started+with+SBT

Answer 2

I STILL have not figured out what the "magic" sequence of actions to follow in order to have a reliable sbt build.

This time around the following worked:

TWICE running

sbt gen-idea

• and then import'ing the build.sbt as a new scala project

What did not work

• Import project from build.sbt (without sbt gen-idea)
• Open project from build.sbt (ditto)
• Open build.sbt from Explorer (selecting IJ to open it)
