I'm planning on doing a Play framework (https://playframework.com) backend in Scala

[EricSimons]

@James-Parsons awesome! Just updated issue status w/ gitter room, etc — can you fork the starter kit and post the link to your repo in here?

Also, just created a logo you can use for your repo's readme:

https://github.com/KyleU/boilerplay may be good as a starting point. Also see https://github.com/adrianhurt/play-bootstrap for the bootstrap form helpers.

https://github.com/playframework/play-scala-rest-api-example is a good real world application, and has a 2.6.x version you can look at if you want use the milestones.

Is there a plan to include scalajs-react frontend?

[wsargent]

@ikamthania you may want https://github.com/Daxten/bay-scalajs.g8 in that case

[James-Parsons]

Hey guys just a heads up it will likely be a few days before I have time t start on this.

[shubhamkamthania]

Hi,
I just created a pull request for the setup here . It is largely inspired from boilerplay with dependency injection using macwire. Do note it includes a setup for scalajs-react as well but can be removed as required. Do let me know your opinion on it.

[shubhamkamthania]

Hi,
I have added home view to the pull request

Where can I get the favicon from?

[EricSimons]

^ ya'll are just creating the backend in Scala to adhere to API spec, right? Or are you also creating a frontend too?

[shubhamkamthania]

This setup is mostly for backend in scala. Last commit was just to show that full stack scala is a possibility too. This pr is still open for discussion.

How's the development for this repo going?

[johanjvrens]

Really interested in this! Any progress?

[EricSimons]

@yesh0907 @johanjvrens I think these guys ran out of time unfortunately, but lmk if ya'll would like to pick it up & I'll switch the issue to point at your repo!

[James-Parsons]

@EricSimons go ahead. I've been ridiculously busy here lately. I'm working three jobs and going back to school so I hardly have the time anymore :/

[EricSimons]

@yesh0907 @johanjvrens would either of you like to take lead on this? Lmk and I'll have the issue point to your repo!

[johanjvrens]

Thanks, but I don't have time for it. Kind Regards Johan Janse van Rensburg

Hello,

I've started to work on play implementation on my own. It's matter of days or weeks in the worst case, when I would have something, what might be eligible for public view - PRs and introdution for other contributors, so I might be considered as one, who could take lead on this issue/project, if it's ok for everyone of course. :)

I've read that ikamthania implemented something already but given link to repo/PR is not active anymore, so I do not know how to compare - and maybe merge - his work with mine.

I could fork starter repo and post it in few days.

[Dasiu]

Here is the link to forked starter kit repo with Play Framework implementation. Right now it has JWT authentication, besides it shows exemplary project structure and tests. It still needs a lot of work and polishing. I posted the link as an incentive to contribute.

@EricSimons could I pursue this further?

[Cameron-C-Chapman]

@Dasiu feel free to continue to work on the Play w/ Scala implementation. We'd love to see it finished and get added to the README!

[Dasiu]

Thanks. I'm still on it. Everyone is welcome to contribute, just write here or review current implementation's state in the repository linked above!

[Dasiu]

All right, folks!

I believe Playframework with Scala implementation have reached feature complete stage! I tested backend implementation with React frontend, link to demo can be found in my repo. Now I would ask someone to test my work and review it. People with Scala and Playframework knowledge would be most welcome. :)

[Dasiu]

Hey! @Cameron-C-Chapman @EricSimons what is next needed step?

[EricSimons]

@Dasiu eek sorry about my delay! Awesome work on this!! I'm going to get this added to the homepage first thing tmrw morn :)

[EricSimons]

Now listed on the main readme! Amazing work @Dasiu!! 💯 🎉

[Dasiu]

Thanks! Good to hear!
