Scala Bazaars

The Scala Bazaar system, "sbaz" in short, is a system used by Scala enthusiasts to share computer files with each other. In particular, it makes it easy to share libraries and applications. Just like with a real-life bazaar, working within a bazaar provides you with extra opportunities offered by other people, and gives you an easy way to share any offerings you wish to make to others in the community.

The primary maintainer of sbaz is Lex Spoon.

Documentation

• The sbaz tutorial walks you through the basics.
• Scala Bazaars Reference Manual (html pdf).
• Package Universes: Which Components Are Real Candidates?, a tech report describing the package-universes project that sbaz is a part of.
• Package Universes Architecture, a document describing the rationale and concepts of the general package-universes architecture.

Downloads

• Standard Scala installations include sbaz. You can use the included sbaz to manage that installation, and you can use sbaz-setup to create a new installation tree on the same tree (e.g., if the original version was installed by an administrator and you want a user-specific installation).
• The source code is available via an svn repository. Either browse the repository online, or use the following command to check out a copy:

  svn co http://lampsvn.epfl.ch/svn-repos/scala/sbaz/trunk/ sbaz

• Source code for releases is in this archive directory.
