Update play 2.2 to 2.3 // build.scala to build.sbt [play-java]

[flp]

I tried to update my play 2.2 app and therefore my build.scale to a build.sbt.

That's my try to convert it to a build.sbt:

name := "betting_game"

version := "1.0-SNAPSHOT"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  javaCore, javaJdbc, javaEbean, javaJpa, cache,
  "com.typesafe" %% "play-plugins-mailer" % "2.1-RC2",
  "postgresql" % "postgresql" % "9.1-901-1.jdbc4",
  jacoco.settings:_*
)

parallelExecution in jacoco.Config := false      

lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(PlayJava)

Unfortunately, I always get this error:

build.sbt:14: error: not found: value PlayJava
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(PlayJava)
                                                     ^

I tried to google, but I didn't find anything helpful.

.enablePlugins(play.PlayJava)

And in project/plugins.sbt:

// Use the Play sbt plugin for Play projects

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.play" % "sbt-plugin" % "2.3.2")

Also, update the sbt version to 0.13.5 in your project/build.properties.

I followed the update instructions of play, therefore I needn't to change the sbt version.

But also if I change it to play.PlayJava, I will get the following error:

build.sbt:14: error: not found: value play
lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(play.PlayJava)

[Megazord]

Could you please post your project/plugins.sbt?

Best,

// Comment to get more information during initialization
logLevel := Level.Warn

// The Typesafe repository
resolvers += "Typesafe repository" at "http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases/"

// Use the Play sbt plugin for Play projects
addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.play" % "sbt-plugin" % "2.3.2")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-less" % "1.0.0")

addSbtPlugin("de.johoop" % "jacoco4sbt" % "2.1.1")

Found the problem. I needed to move the file to the head folder of the project :/

[Parag Lohiya]

The folder structure should be 

<primaryfolder>/project/build.properties

<primaryfolder>/project/projects.sbt

<primaryfolder>/build.sbt

Hi flp!

I'm having the same problem you did. What do you mean by moving the file to the head folder? Do I put plugins.sbt inside the root directory of the project instead of /projects ? It goes against the tutorials I followed. Did it work for you?
