How to add one SBT project as a dependency of another?

Question

I have the following project setup:

Base/
  build.sbt
  src/

Main/
  build.sbt
  src/

Where Base and Main are two projects. I would like Main to have the classes of Base on the classpath of Main . If possible, I would like to keep the builds separate. How can I do this?

Thanks!

You can try Multi-Project build, maybe it will be best in you case: http://www.scala-sbt.org/0.13.5/docs/Getting-Started/Multi-Project.html

However if this two projects are completely separate sbt supports source dependencies, it definitely works with github and I think should work with file dependencies as well

lazy val Main = Project("Main", file("."), settings = ...) dependsOn(baseDep)

lazy val baseDep = uri("file:///path/to/base/project")
