Play + Scala code generator module

[Aishwarya Singhal]

Hi All

I have written a module to generate code for use with Play
applications written in Scala. It generates Rails like CRUD
"scaffold"s i.e. model + view + controller for entities by leveraging
JPA, along with Spec based unit tests and Selenium based functional
tests. So, you can now have a Scala driven CRUD application (with a
couple of entities) written from scratch on play up and running (with
> 80% code coverage) in less than 10 mins :-) The index/ listing page
of each entity is shown using JQGrid and provides pagination, search
and sorting of data.

If you are interested, it is available of github at
https://github.com/asinghal/Play-ScalaGen

I would love to hear of some feedback on the same, contributions to
the code are obviously welcome.

Best regards
Aishwarya

Can I know why this code is not written in scala ?

[Huang ShengYu]

Hi Ouertani/ Huang

Thank you for the feedback!

No special reason, I was just more comfortable with Java at the point
of writing it. I actually started with fixing the Scala code
generators in the eclipse plugin (playclipse), which was written in
Java, but then it felt more appropriate to make it IDE independent
once it started taking some shape. I can easily port it to Scala if
you see the current state being a hindrance.

The main reason I wrote the module was that I wanted to focus on
learning new things in Scala and Play rather than writing the same
code over and over again. Hence, pardon the code please, I am happy to
review and build your feedback into it :-). Please feel free to open
issues on github/ fork the repository.

Thanks and Best regards
Aishwarya

Hello

Have not seen much activity in your project and I just wanted to know if you are planning on updating for current version of the framework.

Great work and thanks!
