QUESTION
I am new to Play Framework and was trying to understand SimpleRouter
class. In the Play documentation, I see a simple example as:
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-01 at 13:45An Action according to the Play documentation here is
basically a (play.api.mvc.Request => play.api.mvc.Result) function that handles a request and generates a result to be sent to the client.
In other words, an Action a full implementation of the server side of the http request that is able to take a play.api.mvc.Request
and do some work and return a play.api.mvc.Result
In your example the Action is one that does not use anything from the request and returns a static HTTP 200 response with the content hello
Edit: From the comment here it looks like you are having an issue with the Action
in the code sample not being resolved.
The reason for this is that that is not actually a reference to the play.api.mvc.Action
but a helper method to construct Actions.
This helper method is defined in play.api.mbc.AbstractController
which you can extend to make use of it.
An example of this would be something like:

When running sbt new playframework/play-scala-seed.g8

i hope someone can help me. I use following Code snippet to upload an image to my server (This is copied from here: https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.8.x/ScalaFileUpload
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-25 at 17:13According to this thread, Play may have problems with certain SBT versions and vice versa.
This workaround might work for you.
This issue was also patched for Play 2.8.8 so try updating to latest version.
QUESTION
Context: I'm trying to run the starter sample web application in the Play documentation for Scala: https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.8.x/HelloWorldTutorial. I confirmed that I have the listed requirements and I've followed the instructions in the README which appear to state you run sbt run in the project directory. I'm raising a ton of errors which seem to indicate I have missing dependencies but I have no idea.
Questions: Can someone please assist in helping me interpret and resolve these errors? Thank you.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-05 at 20:23You need to run sbt
in the parent directory, not in the project
directory, i.e. in C:\...\play-samples-play-scala-starter-example\
.
To give more context, SBT is a recursive build tool and the project
directory contains metadata to build the main project but it's not aimed to be built directly.

I do want to write some functional tests for our project. Techstack: Play Framework 1.5, Java 16, Junit 3.
I found following documentation: test - 1.5.x security - 1.5.x
So the Controller looks something like this.

QUESTION
Recently I switched my Play Framework-based project from Ehcache to Caffeine, because the Play documentation for version 2.8 says "For in-process caching Caffeine is typically the best choice."
Now, I implemented a little "test" to see how many items can be added to the cache before some items are evicted. The test simply adds more and more items to the cache (without an explicit expiration) in a loop, checking whether all previosuly inserted items still are available after each insert operation, until at least one previously inserted item is detected to be missing.
With Ehcache I found that the limit apparently is 10,000 items. After adding that many items to the cache, some "old" items start to disappear from the cache. So my conclusion is that Ehcache, by default, has a fixed size limit of 10,000 items. With Caffeine, on the other hand, there seems to be no limit at all! I kept the test running for a very long time, but even after inserting ~1 million items, still no previously inserted items had been evicted. At that point I stopped the test.
So, does Caffeine, unlike Ehcache, not have a size limit by default? Will it keep on accumulating items until, eventually, my application crashes with "out of memory" error, or is there some logic in Caffeine that evicts items in "low memory" situations? Is it advisable to configure an explicit cache size limit when using Caffeine? I would think so. But then, why Play doesn't do it by default?
Unfortuantely, the Cache documentation of Play Framework doesn't make clear at all which default settings Play uses with Ehcache and/or Caffeine. Also, a list of available Cache options in the Play configuration (and the respecitive default values) would be really helpful...
Regards.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Aug-16 at 09:12This appears to be the defaults set by Play's integrations.
For ehcache, they have a configuration file ehcache-default.xml with a maximum of 10,000 entries and an expiration time of 120 seconds.
For caffeine, they have a configuration file reference.conf that specifies no constraints. A maximum-size may be set to limit the number of entries.
The Caffeine library does not have any implicit (arbitrary) defaults, as that might be surprising and most often be incorrect. If a size limit is specified, then the cache is allowed to grow slightly above the threshold in order to support concurrent writes (else all serializing against an exclusive lock), but won't suffer runaway growth due to applying back pressure.
QUESTION
I'm trying to learn Play for scala and though they provide some nice example projects, I can't get any of them to run. Specifically the rest api example https://github.com/playframework/play-samples/tree/2.7.x/play-scala-rest-api-example
Supposedly you can just download the sample and run sbt run
. The project builds for me just fine, but when I navigate to the url, localhost:9000

Answered 2021-Jul-14 at 16:10The example project you started from doesn't define a route for /
but only some routes under /v1/posts
(you can check this in the routes
file).
Maybe it's better to start with the sample project called "play-scala-starter-example" (which does define a route on /
): https://github.com/playframework/play-samples/tree/2.7.x/play-scala-starter-example
