The Play Framework combines productivity and performance making it easy to build scalable web applications with Java and Scala. Play is developer friendly with a "just hit refresh" workflow and built-in testing support. With Play, applications scale predictably due to a stateless and non-blocking architecture. By being RESTful by default, including assets compilers, JSON & WebSocket support, Play is a perfect fit for modern web & mobile applications.

This branch differs from the main play branch in that it supports TLS client authentication as well
as server authentivation. The RequestHeader
trait has a cert method that allows you to request a client
certificate asynchronously - the client will be asked for his certificate if he has one.
def certs(required:Boolean): Future[Seq[Certificate]]
Certificates that are signed by CAs in the trust store can be requested, or by specifying the empty trust store any client certificate will be requested. This is useful for implementing protocols such as WebID, as is done by RWW-Play
run -Dhttps.port=8443 -Dhttps.trustStore=noCA
This API is still prone to change, see:
- ticket 828: client certificate support
- ticket 787: passing certificate-validation-level info to the client
For your convenience the most recent builds that pass the test suites are uploaded here.
There are several samples applications included in the samples/
directory. For example, to run the included Scala Hello World application:
$ cd ~/workspace/play2.1/samples/scala/helloworld/
$ play run
The application will be available on port 9000.
