The Play2 plug-in provides first-class support for Play2 Route and Template files in Eclipse, for both Java and Scala projects. In practice, what this means is that some of the features your are used to have in the Scala or Java Editor (e.g., syntax highlighting, errors-as-you-type reporting, code completion, hyperlinking) are also available when editing Play2 files.
- Play2 v2.1.
- Scala 2.10 (any minor version - Play2 v2.1 only supports Scala 2.10), or Java 1.6+.
- Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo) or Eclipse 4.2 (Juno)
-
Install the Scala IDE 3.0 for Scala 2.10 (if you have any doubt, have a look at the Scala IDE Getting Started guide). Even if you plan on using Play2 from Java, installing the Scala IDE is a requirement.
-
The latest stable release of the Play2 plug-in can be installed via the same update-site that you used to install the Scala IDE (yes, the one that you used just above). The Play2 plug-in is listed under the Scala IDE plugins group.
FIXME: Add image here as soon as the plug-in is available in the ecosystem
Alternatively, if you like to stay on the cutting edge, you can install the nightly build of the Play2 plug-in.
-
If you are using the Scala IDE 3.0 on Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo), then you should use the following update-site: http://scala-ide.dreamhosters.com/play2/nightly-scala-ide-3.0-e37/site/
-
If you are using the Scala IDE nightly on Eclipse 4.2 (Juno), then you should use the following update-site: http://scala-ide.dreamhosters.com/play2/nightly-scala-ide-nightly-e38/site/
