Resolve java artifacts for sbt using settings.xml

Question

I have projects implemented on scala/sbt and java/maven. Both use dependency someDependecy.jar which is hosted in artifactory.

To resolve path to artifactory for maven I've just added settings.xml into HOME/.m2.

Can I somehow tell sbt to use settings.xml to not to duplicate this urls and credentials to artifactory?

I'd just add the artifactory location as a resolver into your build.sbt

resolvers += "my-artifactory" at "https://artifactory.host/groups/public"
libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
   "com.me" % "custom-dependency" % "1.0-SNAPSHOT", 
   "junit" % "junit" % "4.12" % "test"
)

This will be duplication. One in settings.xml one in sbt. I want to avoid this. But thanks. – Bohdan Myslyvchuk Oct 23 '19 at 10:03
Duplicate is not always evil, and there making SBT depends on Maven is not a good idea – cchantep Oct 23 '19 at 11:20

Look like XY; Rather than looking for a way to make SBT read maven specific config, it could recommended to check how to make it behave in similar way, like using dependency resolver.

Basically, if you want to resolve dependencies with sbt it uses under the hood ivy for dependency resolution. You cannot use settings.xml from maven. For sbt you need to specify ~/.sbt/repository and ~/.sbt/.credentials files to point to some dependency storage as JFrog as ir was mentioned here .
