Start developing awesome web applications with this friendly, practical guide to the Play! Framework
Overview
- While driving in Java, tasks are also presented in Scala a great way to be introduced to this amazing language.
- Create a fully-fledged, collaborative web application starting from ground zero; all layers are presented in a pragmatic way.
- Gain the advantages associated with developing a fully integrated web framework.
In Detail
The Learning Play! Framework 2 has been created for web developers that are building web applications. The core idea is to focus on the HTTP features and to enable them through a simplification lens. Building a web application no longer requires a configuration phase, an environment setup, or a long development lifecycle - its integrated!.
Learning Play! Framework 2 will enable any web developers to create amazing web applications taking advantage of the coolest features. Its the fastest way to dive into Play!, focusing on the capabilities by using them in a sample application. Although essentially Java based code, a Scala version is presented as well giving an opportunity to see some Scala in action.
After setting up the machine and learning some Scala, you will construct an application which builds from static to dynamic, before introducing a database.
Then well focus on how data can be consumed and rendered in several ways. This will enable some real time communication through WebSocket and Server-Sent Event on both server and client sides.
The book will end with testing and deployment, which completes any web development project.
What you will learn from this book
- Whats great about the new framework and on which projects it works best.
- Set up a full installation including the framework itself but also the development environment.
- Build a simple site or even a webapp using the server-side and templating system.
- Store data in a relational database, using Ebean in Java and Anorm in Scala.
- Discover the reactive way of handling data (back and forth with a client).
- Test all layers of your application using the integration of Play! 2 with the most famous testing frameworks even on the client-side.
- Deploy your application on the cloud, choosing Heroku as an example, but also on Cloudbees which enables a continuous integration.
Approach
A strong focus is placed on explanation by example; even with the amount of amazing capabilities of Play! 2, they will be gathered in a single application. At the end of this book, the reader will have a fully-fledged application using the basic and advanced features of Play! 2.
Who this book is written for
Readers must be interested in the Web in general; specifically using the HTTP between a browser and a server to create blazing projects! Java skills are beneficial but not necessary since Learning Play! Framework 2 is not J2EE based but introduces a simple, neat, and completely integrated version; the prerequisites are almost none.

Andy Petrella is first and foremost a Belgian mathematician who tried to find a way to apply his skills to the concrete world. One of them was programming. So, after graduating in Mathematics, he continued his study in Informatics at the University of Lige.
He quickly became interested in Geomatics because of the heterogeneous needs of this discipline, which led him to mainly work in the GIS field. Over there, he got the opportunity to sharpen his skills on distributed architecture for interoperable solutions.
After spending time developing in Java and integrating scripting languages such as Python and JavaScript, he slowly moved back to functional programming. Although working with JVM was a constraint, he tried his hand at Scala and took the opportunity to use Play! 2 while it was still in development.
Having found a new way to enjoy mathematics along with programming, he joined one of his friends and they decided to create NextLab (http://www.nextlab.be/), a company that offers the perfect context to push Play! 2 and Scala to the foreground through projects and customers.
Andy also loves to share his experiences, his enjoyment, and his discoveries through the co-creation of a user group called WAJUG (http://wajug.be/) dedicated to help Walloons to meet together and share ideas about information technology. In order to ensure a constant flow of information, he also writes his thoughts on his blog, SKA LA (http://ska-la.blogspot.be/).
During the writing of this book, I had some difficulties, stress, and doubts; but they were quickly annihilated by the laughters of my son, Noah, and the love of my wife, Sandrine. I'd like to thank them again and again. Without them, I wouldn't have done it.
And of course, the support of my parents and sister who have always been there for me, and even more during the writing of this book.
My last thoughts are dedicated to my best friend Tof and to a Brazilian (R.C.) who gave me some personal additional notes on the book.
Steve Chaloner has been a software developer, consultant, and mentor since 1999. He specializes in Java, but believes in using the right tool for the job. The right tool for him, for web-based applications at least, is Play! 2.
In addition to collaborating on several open source projects, he is the author of several of his own. The most successful of these, Deadbolt and Deadbolt 2 (for Play! 1 and Play! 2 respectively), are used in commercial products.
In 2011, he was selected as one of the expert reviewers for Play Framework Cookbook , Packt Publishing , along with the creator of Play! and two of its oldest contributors. Since then, he has also acted as the expert reviewer for two more books covering Play! 2 development in both Java and Scala.
In 2012, Steve co-founded The Belgian Play! Framework User Group, details of which can be found at http://play-be.org.
Marius Soutier is a German software engineer who specializes in modern JVM programming languages, frameworks, and development processes.
After graduating with a degree in Business and Computer Science, Marius went on to construct Java-based business solutions for various French enterprises in Paris. Later, he supported a German healthcare organization eager to create patient-care software. Over there, he served as WebObjects developer, architect, and subsequently department head.
During the past year, Marius has been part of a new startup incubator for a large German telecommunications company, which is leveraging advanced functional/object programming and NoSQL.
Marius runs the Cologne Scala User Group and regularly presents functional programming paradigms in Play! Framework 2.
