Cannot find router.Routes in play 2.5.2 scala compile time dependency injection

[Saurabh Agrawal]

Hi,

I am trying compile time dependency injection in scala following the documentation below:

https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.5.x/ScalaCompileTimeDependencyInjection

I wrote an AppComponents class which extends BuiltInComponentsFromContext like so:

class AppComponents(context: Context) extends BuiltInComponentsFromContext(context) {
  

  // Bunch of lazy vals here

  lazy val myController = new MyController

  override def router = Routes(myController)

When I try compiling my app, it throws an error:

[error] /Users/xyz/work/git-repos/myapp/app/AppLoader.scala:66: not found: value Routes

[error]   override def router = Routes(myController)

All the documentation on internet says exactly the same thing that I have in my code, yet it doesn't work. Please help.

Thanks

What are your imports? Typically you want to use router.Routes. See the example here: https://github.com/playframework/play-macwire-di/blob/master/app/GreetingApplicationLoader.scala

Thanks Greg. I missed play.api._ in the imports. The app compiles fine now although Intellij Idea Cannot Find Symbol routes in  "import router.Routes".

I'am trying to use compile time dependency injection with MacWire and I had the same problem.

The file is generated under : target/scala-2.11/routes/main/router/Routes.scala

I add import router.Routes

Intellij compilation and sbt ~run both fails.

Then I do :

1. exit Intellij.
2. sbt clean
3. sbt ~run

And now it works, strange !!

I hope it will helps...

Regards,
Ronan.
