mongodb database with scala play 2.0 tutorial

Question

Is there a tutorial how I can use mongodb database with scala play 2.0?

On the official website (playframework.org) there seems to be only the SQL example.

Answer 1

Here's the official plugin for salat

Give me a shout if you can't get it working.

Answer 2

Have you checked out this project:

https://github.com/vznet/play-mongo-jackson-mapper

Answer 3

I spent some time on integration of the MongoDb support in the todo application (using salat extension) from the official Play Framework site.

Hope this will help

Answer 4

You can try to use the ReactiveMongo plugin:

https://github.com/ReactiveMongo/Play-ReactiveMongo

It is for the 2.3 version of Play Framework and provides good instructions on how to add support for mongoDB data to your Play installation along with controller samples.

I hope this helps.
