Bloop

Bloop is a compile server for Scala that works with sbt and has experimental support for other build tools like Maven, Gradle and Mill. If your workspace contains a .bloop/ directory with Bloop JSON files then Metals will automatically connect to it.

To manually tell Metals to connect with Bloop, run the "Connect to build server" (id: build.connect) command. In VS Code, open the the "Command palette" (Cmd + Shift + P) and search "connect to build server".

Import connect to build server command

Customizing build import

Consult the Bloop docs for customizing build import for sbt: https://scalacenter.github.io/bloop/docs/build-tools/sbt

  • Enable IntegrationTest and other custom configurations
  • Speed up build import
  • Enable sbt project references (source dependencies)
  • Export main class
