Question

Is it possible in Play 2.0, to make use of external model objects in a template?

I can reference model objects from another jar in a Controller class. I don't know how to reference external model objects inside the Play 2.0 template files.

Was it helpful?

Solution

No problem. First, add the class to your classpath, either by adding the jar to the lib dir or through the "managed dependencies" in the projects/Build.scala. Make sure to have fully qualified name when declaring your model class in the template view file. Inside the template, you can reference any public method or member.

@(varName : fully.qualified.name.MyClass)
<h1>@varName.myMember</h1>
<h1>@varName.myMethod</h1>
