NoSqlPlugin for Play needs to allow access to Properties

[nadenf]

I am trying to pass in a custom Cassandra builder but I don't have access to the Properties map in order to set it.

Can we modify the NoSqlPlugin to have a global properties map and a getProperties() accessor method ?

yes, we can easily pull the changes you want in......Also, I have sent vikas an email to do this for you but you may need to wait longer(otherwise 9 times out of 10, he has the pull request done in 24 hours and if not, you have me too ;) and I can get it done). Sorry for the late reply...I saw your post on friday but was leaving work and was a bit lazy that day and off to play.

so issue a pull request if you want it done quick otherwise vikas will start it around friday after his other issues are resolved

In case you want us to do it on Friday, can you provide few more details:

1. We have issue Astyanax retry policy is missing as configuration option #32 as well which is related to this. Where you want to put the properties in application.conf along with existing 4 properties and then read them in BootstrapImpl.java
2. Otherwise, how would you like to have a separate map. Do you want a separate properties file? Or want to add properties in Java file.

I can provide a pull request for this tomorrow but it's really, really simple. In NoSQLPlugin:

1. Add global:
   private static final Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<String, Object>();

2. Remove:
   Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<String, Object>();
   from onApplicationStart()

3. Add:
   public static Map<String, Object> getProperties() {
   return props;
   }

This is done as suggested. Closing
