sbt-assembly: How do I include the static files in src/main/webapp

Question

I am using sbtassembly from https://github.com/sbt/sbt-assembly with this merge strategy:

mergeStrategy in assembly <<= (mergeStrategy in assembly) { (old) =>
  {
    case PathList("javax", "servlet", xs @ _*)         => MergeStrategy.first
    case PathList(ps @ _*) if ps.last endsWith ".html" => MergeStrategy.first
    case "application.conf" => MergeStrategy.concat
    case "unwanted.txt"     => MergeStrategy.discard
    case x => old(x)
  }
}

For some reason my static content is not being included in the executable jar, but my webservices work fine (so it does work).

How can I include my index.html and javascript files?

There's a related question Why sbt compile doesn't copy unmanaged resources to classpath? that you can get an idea for the setting.

Here's the setting using sbt 0.13:

unmanagedResourceDirectories in Compile += { baseDirectory.value / "src/main/webapp" }

Thank you. I was assuming it was an sbtassembly problem. Tomorrow I will test if it was an sbt issue. – James Black Oct 22 '13 at 01:36

You put me on the correct path, I ended up succeeding with: resourceDirectory in Compile <<= baseDirectory(_ / "src/main/webapp") – James Black Oct 22 '13 at 12:33
