How to build a module in playframework 2

Question

It seems I can't find an instruction on http://www.playframework.org/ about building a module for playframework 2.

Anyone know if there are documentations for this or the steps require to build a module?

Thanks.

Answer 1

This link is by far the best guide I have seen for far.

The author, Steve, has been working with Play modules for quite some time, and has published a few Play2 modules based on his Play 1.x ones.

Answer 2

I too didnt find any good documentation on this. So, I figured it myself and captured the steps in this post. It targets Play 2.5 and above. It is in Java!

There isn't official documentation as of the writing of this answer. But there are links to documentation off of the playframework website here: http://www.playframework.org/documentation/2.0.3/Modules

From the above link:

Blog posts describing the process of writing a module can be found on http://www.objectify.be/wordpress/?p=363 and http://developer.vz.net/2012/03/16/writing-a-play-2-0-module/

The second link is actually how to build a plug-in, which is just a module that implements a specific interface to provide a way to hook into the framework during startup and shutdown, I believe.

Also the guide in the previous answer seems like it might be good too: http://java.dzone.com/articles/writing-modules-play-2-get
