Update: Now it is a multi project buiild with spearation of core and web project where the latter is based on play 2.5.12.

I created this project as a template for play 2.5 application with compile time dependency injection.

It is solely meant for writing back end services with minimal of web interface. So that I can just download and start coding rather than changing and removing stuff from play-scala template every time I start a new project.

Includes docker-compose. On first start it will build docker image named as tester but it can be changed to whatever you like in docker-compose.yml file.

Also worth noting that docker-compose needs 2 named external volumes to enable quick startup. So if the volumes are not present already, they should be created with one time command for both volumes as follow:

docker volume create --name sbt
docker volume create --name ivy2

How to clone:

git clone https://github.com/naumanbadar/play2.5-Compile-time-DI.git <your project name>

How to run in dev mode in docker-compose:

Run in auto compile mode which will recompile on every change in sources.

cd <your project name>
docker-compose up

Start container with bash so you can either chose to test, compile or simply use the shell.

cd <your project name>
docker-compose run tester bash

Note that it will not bind container ports to host port as per design of docker-compose. If ports needs to be accessed with docker-compose run then use the flag --service-ports.

cd <your project name>
docker-compose run --service-ports tester bash

Docker base image for testing

Dockerfile for naumanbadar/sbt_docker, referred in docker-compose.yml, can be found at https://github.com/naumanbadar/sbt_docker or the image itself can be pulled from https://hub.docker.com/r/naumanbadar/sbt_docker/~/dockerfile/
