Type g8Scaffold form from sbt

[José Viegas]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying Play, but I'm getting frustrated by the fact that documentation assumes that everyone already knows play :(.

So following the documentation I created the first application using the command: sbt new playframework/play-scala-seed.g8

Now, afterwards the documentation says: "Type g8Scaffold form from sbt to create the scaffold controller, template and tests needed to process a form."  

What does this means ? Because I typed sbt inside the project, and then I type "g8Scaffold form" and it gives me the following error:

[error] Not a valid command: g8Scaffold

[error] Not a valid project ID: g8Scaffold

[error] Expected ':' (if selecting a configuration)

[error] Not a valid key: g8Scaffold

[error] g8Scaffold

[error]           ^

[INFO] [02/23/2018 19:35:18.923] [Thread-2] [CoordinatedShutdown(akka://sbt-web)] Starting coordinated shutdown from JVM shutdown hook

Did a search on google, and nothing comes about "g8Scaffold form" either.

Followed the link to "https://github.com/playframework/play-java-seed.g8" and it says exactly the same thing "Type g8Scaffold form from sbt..."

Am I missing something ? Is there invisible instructions somewhere ? :D

Thanks a lot for your feedback. I  want to understand the technology before committing on using it, but somehow it seems easy and amazing from the documentations and videos, but unclear to follow.

As I understand it, this is a recent bug, caused by a temporary incompatibility between the giter8 plugin and sbt.  See https://github.com/playframework/play-scala-starter-example/issues/68 for details...
