How to exclude commons-logging from a scala/sbt/slf4j project?

Question

My scala/sbt project uses grizzled-slf4j and logback. A third-party dependency uses Apache Commons Logging.

With Java/Maven, I would use jcl-over-slf4j and logback-c

Answer 1

I met the same problem before. Solved it by adding dependency like

libraryDependencies += "foo" % "bar" % "0.7.0" exclude("commons-logging","commons-logging")

or

libraryDependencies += "foo" % "bar" % "0.7.0" excludeAll(ExclusionRule(organization = "commons-logging"))
