Can I also add javadocs of all dependend projects to the pack-output?

[liebichw]

I'm evaluating sbt-pack for a library which we distribute to other groups (which use neither ivy nor sbt nor maven). This distribution should include the libraries we build, along with the javadocs.

Setting up a distribution for the JARs is easy with sbt-pack, but I could not figure out a way to also include the javadcos for the top-level project and also for the dependend projects. Is this possible with sbt-pack?

By adding this to your build.sbt:

packResourceDir += (baseDirectory.value / "target" / "scala-2.11" / "api" -> "docs")

The API documentation of the current project will be packaged. For the depended projects I'm not sure...

The recursive packaging is the key issue here. It is enough for me to use the packageDoc task - but this also does not run recursively over dependencies.
I found some workaround by modifying a plugin code found on the web, but this is using SBT 0.12 (?) syntax and looks complex as hell.
