lift-persistence

A maintenance fork of the Lift Framework's persistence layer, stripped down to a single artifact.

Upstream Lift 4.0.0 removed all persistence modules (lift-mapper, lift-db, lift-proto). This fork keeps them alive — without the web framework — for projects that still rely on Mapper as their ORM.

What's in the artifact

One module, lift-persistence, merging the former:

• lift-common — Box, Logging, and core abstractions
• lift-util — helpers, props, security utilities
• lift-db — JDBC abstraction and connection management
• lift-proto — ProtoUser and friends
• lift-mapper — the Mapper ORM

What was removed

• All web modules (lift-webkit, templating, Comet, SiteMap, …)
• lift-json — consumers should migrate to json4s
• lift-actor and LAFuture
• lift-markdown

Usage

Via JitPack:

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>jitpack.io</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.hongwei1.lift-persistence</groupId>
  <artifactId>lift-persistence_2.12</artifactId>
  <version>v1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

Cross-built for Scala 2.12 and 2.13.

Project layout

The library lives in the lift-persistence/ subproject on purpose: JitPack names sbt artifacts by module, so the named subproject publishes as com.github.hongwei1.lift-persistence:lift-persistence_<scalaVersion>. A flattened root project would publish under the repository name without the Scala version suffix. Do not flatten.

Building

sbt clean +test +publishM2

Requires JDK 8+ (CI runs JDK 11).
