Static Code Analyzer to enforce Type Annotation in Scala

Is there any static code analyzer that can be used to enforce Type Annotation in Scala. For example, when a developer writes a statement without type annotation as show in the example below, he should get a compile time error

val name="sometime" //This should throw compile time error

This is what I expect the developer to write,

val name: String = "somename" // Type annotation 'String' explicitly specified

I am able to enforce few good practices using Scalastyle plugin in sbt(which throws compile time error when any of the rules specified for ScalastylePlugin is not followed). But I could find any rule that enforce type annotation

PS : Scalastyle does provide provision to create CustomRules(by extending the class ScalariformChecker). But I am just looking for a way to avoid developing custom code
