include module routes in play framework

Question

I have created a module in my play application and the structure of the module is

myApp/app/builder/modules/design

In myApp dependencies.yml i have given

# Application dependencies

require:
    - play
    - design -> design

repositories:
    - My modules:
        type:       local
        artifact:   /var/www/html/myApp/app/builder/modules/design
        contains:
            - design

In myApp routes

GET     /                                       Application.index
GET     /home                                   Application.index
GET     /design                                 module:design.index

The application runs successfully but when i access the design page in design module it throws error

10:13:58,247 ERROR ~ Cannot include routes for module design.index (not found)

What should i do to resolve this error.

When i add the module specification in application.conf

module.design=/var/www/html/myApp/app/builder/modules/design

Then it throws an error

The file {module:design}/app/controllers/Design.java could not be compiled. Error raised is : The declared package "builder.modules.design.app.controllers" does not match the expected package "controllers"

if i add in application.conf it throws error but specified in dependicies.yml doesnot throws error but says cannot include routes — Arasu
Seems that the package declaration is wrong builder.modules.design.app.controllers should be controllers.design — niels

@pere i have created the design page and modified the design controller package name to

app.builder.modules.design.controllers

and in application.conf i added

module.design:app/builder/modules/design

and in dependencies.yml as

require:
    - play
    - myApp -> design

While run the console showed deprecation in application.conf and moudle design available in next line

But showed same error Then i I cut the builder folder and put into my myApp folder and changed the design controller package name to controllers and in application.conf

module.design:builder/modules/design

then everything is working

I found the error is in naming of the package So i again cut into the app folder and changed the design controller package name to

builder.modules.design.app.controllers

when i run the application it shows

The file {module:design}/app/controllers/Design.java could not be compiled. Error raised is : The declared package "builder.modules.design.app.controllers" does not match the expected package "controllers"

What could be the error
