scala,sbt
I have started using scala sbt pretty recently. One thing which I find very difficult with SBT is to find the right dependency signature. for example, I am reading a blog which was written in 2014 and it says add the following libraryDependencies "net.liftweb" %% "lift-son" % "2.5+" "org.apache.httpcomponents" %%...
scala,try-catch
As far as I understand, the following code snippet should execute fine. Stream("A", "").toIterable.map(_.head) throws an exception, which should be caught by the try block. import org.scalatest.FunSuite class TryCatchTest extends FunSuite { test("Try failure") { List(1).flatMap { _ => try { Stream("A", "").toIterable.map(_.head) } catch { case e: Throwable =>...

I'm trying to use akka inside my scala based mod. The when testing using "gradle runClient" it gives errors, best I can tell its missing the akka library at runtime. I don't see how to add akka library though. If it helps my project is here: https://github.com/tesract/NilCraft Any advice would...
json,scala,akka-http
I'm trying to unmarshall request payload as string, but for some reason it's failing. My code: path("mypath") { post { decodeRequest { entity(as[String]) {jsonStr => //could not find implicit value for...FromRequestUnmarshaller[String] complete { val json: JsObject = Json.parse(jsonStr).as[JsObject] val jsObjectFuture: Future[JsObject] = MyDatabase.addListItem(json) jsObjectFuture.map(_.as[String]) } } } } } In...
scala,apache-spark,spark-graphx
I'm trying to retrieve the amount of triangles from a graph using graphX. As I'm new to both Scala and graphX, I'm currently quite stuck. I'm creating a graph from an edgefile: 1 2 1 3 2 3 This should be 1 triangle. Next I'm using the build in function...
scala,akka
In my project, I have defined groups of Actors called cells. Those cells process messages and operate basic calculations of some different kinds, one kind by small Actor type. What is the advantage(s) of growing those small Actors, then killing them once the job is done, rather than creating them...
scala,recursion,case,frequency
I have just started to learn Scala after some experience with functional programming in other languages. def freq(c:Char, y:String, list:List[(Char,Int)]): List[(Char,Int)] = list match{ case _ => freq(c, y.filter(_ == c), list :: List((count(c,y),c))) case nil => list } In the above code I am getting an error when trying...
scala,sbt
If I want to use a build.scala file in order to build my project (instead of build.sbt) how do I specify the plugins? I want to use the sbt-assmbly plugin. and I am aware that I can create a plugins.sb file and do a addSbtPlugin there. But i want to...
arrays,scala,zip
I have two arrays populated with integers. They are the same size (val array1 and val array2). I want to fuse them together into tuples with their index as the third element. For example if we have val array1 = Array(5,2,6,2) and val array2 = Array(9,8,3,4) then I want to...
algorithm,scala,priority-queue
I've defined a priority queue like so import scala.collection.mutable.PriorityQueue ... val queue = new PriorityQueue[(Int,Int)]() I want to use this ordering: If we are comparing two items A and B in the queue, A is bigger than B if the first element of its (Int,Int) tuple is larger than B's....
scala
I was wondering what is the most elegant way of getting the increasing prefix of a given sequence. My idea is as follows, but it is not purely functional or any elegant: val sequence = Seq(1,2,3,1,2,3,4,5,6) var currentElement = sequence.head - 1 val increasingPrefix = sequence.takeWhile(e => if (e >...
scala,shapeless,type-level-computation
I just recently started learning scala and today I decided I wanted to write a CSV parser that would load nicely into case classes but store the data in rows (lists) of Shapeless's HList object so that I could get some exposure to type-level programming. Here's what I have so...
scala,parser-combinators
Imaging i've got following: --open Client: enter Nick Age 28 Rosewell, USA Client: enter Maria Age 19 Cleveland, USA --open-- I need a result close to the following: List(List(Nick, Age 28, Rosewell), List(Maria, Age19, Cleveland)) It can be as many clients inside open body as you can imagine, so the...
scala,reflection
I want to instantiate a new object with the following classes: class Test[T : ClassTag](val value : T) extends Serializable private object Test { private var testClass : Class[_] = _ def setTestClass(test : Class[_]) : Unit = { testClass = test } def apply[T : ClassTag](value : T) :...
