Sample applications in play


The Play binary package comes with a comprehensive set of sample applications written in both Java and Scala. This is a very good place to look for code snippets and examples.

Hello world



This is a very basic application that demonstrates Play fundamentals:

  • Writing controllers and actions.
  • Routing and reverse routing.
  • Linking to public assets.
  • Using the template engine.
  • Handling forms with validation.

Computer database


 








This is a classic CRUD application, backed by a JDBC database. It demonstrates:
  • accessing a JDBC database, using Ebean in Java and Anorm in Scala
  • table pagination and CRUD forms
  • integrating with a CSS framework (Twitter Bootstrap ).
Twitter Bootstrap requires a different form layout to the default layout provided by the Play 2.0 form helper, so this application also provides an example of integrating a custom form input constructor.

Forms

This is a dummy application presenting several typical form usages. It demonstrates:
  • writing complex forms with validation
  • handling forms with dynamically repeated values.


ZenTasks



This advanced todo list demonstrates a modern Ajax-based web application. This is a work in progress, and we plan to add features in the future releases. For now you can check it out to learn how to:
  • integrate authentication and security
  • use Ajax and JavaScript reverse routing
  • integrate with compiled assets - LESS CSS and CoffeeScript.

CometClock
This a very simple Comet demonstration pushing clock events from the server to the Web browser using a the forever-frame technique. It demonstrates how to:
  • create a Comet connection
  • use Akka actors (in the Java version)
  • write custom Enumerators (in the Scala version).

WebSocket chat

This application is a chat room, built using WebSockets. Additionally, there is a bot used that talks in the same chat room. It demonstrates:
  • WebSocket connections
  • advanced Akka usage.

Comet monitoring

 

This mobile web application monitors Play server performance. It demonstrates:
  • advanced usage of Enumerators and Enumeratees.

Django Dynamic Formsets with Jquery

If you have an existing project, it's quite easy to add client-side support for adding and removing forms. I'll assume you've already created your formset. You can create formsets using any of the provided methods: both regular formsets (created with the ``formset_factory``) and inline formsets (created with the ``inlineformset_factory``) are supported. 1. First, copy ``jquery.formset.js`` to your ``MEDIA_ROOT``; don't    forget to include the jQuery library too! 2. Include a reference to the script in your template; again, remember    to reference the jQuery library, before including the script. 3. Render the formset as you would normally -- I usually use a table    but you can use DIVs, Ps or whatever you desire. Let's use the    example markup below:: <form id="myForm" method="post" action="">            <table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
