About

This plugin makes Slick a first-class citizen of Play 2.x.

The play-slick plugins consists of 3 features:

  • A wrapper DB object that uses the datasources defined in the Play config files, and pulls them from a connection pool. It is there so it is possible to use Slick sessions in the same fashion as you would Anorm JDBC connections. There are some smart caching and load balancing that makes your connections to your DB more performant.
  • A DDL plugin, that reads Slick tables and automatically creates schema updates on reload. This is useful in particular for demos and to get started.
  • In addition it contains a wrapper to use play enumeratees together with Slick (thanks to Marc)

Build Status

Setup

In the project/Build.scala file add::

In your application, add "com.typesafe.play" %% "play-slick" % "0.6.0.1" to the appDependencies in your project/Build.scala file:

to your play.Project.

Example :

 val appDependencies = Seq(
   //other deps
  "com.typesafe.play" %% "play-slick" % "0.6.0.1" 
 )
db.default.driver=org.h2.Driver
db.default.url="jdbc:h2:mem:play"
db.default.user=sa
db.default.password=""

to application.conf and create a model. Creating models are described in the Slick documentation: http://slick.typesafe.com/doc/1.0.1/lifted-embedding.html#tables.

NOTE: the Slick documentation is slightly outdated. The computer-database contains a proposal that better describes the current reality: https://github.com/freekh/play-slick/blob/master/samples/computer-database/app/models/Models.scala#L20.
