I’d like to create a new project with the Play! framework. My system is Mint 12 64bit. Since the newest version of Play! is already bundled with the typesafe-stack, I thought installation would be easy. I added the typesafe repo, then I apt-get updated and apt-get installed typesafe-stack with the command g8 typesafehub/play-scala.
I successfully created a new project in my home folder. Now the problems begin:
I don’t know how to access Play! with this installation. After creating the project, I tried to convert it into an Eclipse project, it but there’s no play command available in the terminal.
How can I get a “standard” Play! installation on Linux? What happens to the tools bundled in the typesafe stack – Where do they go?
Use sbt where you would have used play. They are one and the same in reality.
