POMtificate

sbt POMtified!

POMtificate generates a pom.xml for your Play Framework project, allowing you to enjoy coding in VS Code, Vim, Neovim, or any other editors / IDE that uses the eclipse.jdt.ls language server.

Installation and Usage

1. Clone this Git repository anywhere accessible on your system.
2. Change into the root directory of your Play Framework project (i.e., the directory containing the build.sbt file).
3. Run <path-to-pomtificate-git-repository>/what-the-pom, and let the magic happen. (You may need to run chmod u+x <path-to-pomtificate-git-repository>/what-the-pom to make the script executable first.)

Limitations

1. Currently the script is only tested on Play Framework version 2.5 and Java 1.8.

Troubleshooting
