Scrooge is a thrift code generator written in Scala, which currently generates code for Scala and Java.
It's meant to be a replacement for the apache thrift code generator, and generates conforming, compatible binary codecs by building on top of libthrift.
Since Scala is API-compatible with Java, you can use the apache thrift code generato 7C96 r to generate Java files and use them from within Scala, but the generated code uses Java collections and mutable "bean" classes, causing some annoying boilerplate conversions to be hand-written. This is an attempt to bypass the problem by generating Scala code directly. It also uses Scala syntax so the generated code is much more compact.
There is a fairly comprehensive set of unit tests, which actually generate code, compile it, and execute it to verify expectations.
There are a couple of classes needed by the generated code. These have been moved out of scrooge into a separate jar to keep dependencies small. Maven users need to add the following to the pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.twitter</groupId>
<artifactId>scrooge-core_2.9.2</artifactId>
<version>3.3.2</version>
</dependency>
SBT users need this:
val scroogeCore = "com.twitter" %% "scrooge-core" % "3.3.2"

Make a settings file in ~/.m2/settings.xml
<settings>
<servers>
<server>
<id>github</id>
<username>YOUR-USERNAME</username>
<password>YOUR-PASSWORD</password>
</server>
</servers>
</settings>Then do the following to change the read permissions for that settings file.
chmod 700 ~/.m2/settings.xmlTo actually deploy the newest snapshot to the mvn-repo branch, run the following commands.
sbt publish-m2
cd scrooge-maven-plugin
mvn clean deploy site
