Play Framework Routes File Rules for Bazel

Status Stardoc
Build Status Stardoc

Overview

rules_play_routes compiles Play Framework routes files templates to Scala, so they can be used with bazelbuild/rules_scala and higherkindness/rules_scala.

Simple Core API: play_routes

For more information about the Play Framework, see the Play documentation.

Installation

Create a file at the top of your repository named WORKSPACE and add the following snippet to it.

# update version as needed
rules_play_routes_version = "bfaca5f186f2c3b989c80fd00f37a53b84406b3d"
http_archive(
  name = "io_bazel_rules_play_routes",
  sha256 = "b0ae17af402e88da31fa41b16a6cf1d8eea53d693dd6b4c0c219d421078a2af5",
  strip_prefix = "rules_play_routes-{}".format(rules_play_routes_version),
  type = "zip",
  url = "https://github.com/lucidsoftware/rules_play_routes/archive/{}.zip".format(rules_play_routes_version),
)

RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG = "2.9"
http_archive(
    name = "rules_jvm_external",
    sha256 = "e5b97a31a3e8feed91636f42e19b11c49487b85e5de2f387c999ea14d77c7f45",
    strip_prefix = "rules_jvm_external-{}".format(RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG),
    type = "zip",
    url = "https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_jvm_external/archive/{}.zip".format(RULES_JVM_EXTERNAL_TAG),
)

load("@io_bazel_rules_play_routes//:workspace.bzl", "play_routes_repositories")
play_routes_repositories("2.7")
load("@play_routes//:defs.bzl", play_routes_pinned_maven_install = "pinned_maven_install")
play_routes_pinned_maven_install()

bind(
  name = "default-play-routes-compiler-cli",
  actual = "@io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_12_play_2_7"
)

This installs rules_play_routes to your WORKSPACE and binds the default play routes compiler cli the rules will use. Update the commit as needed.

In the above example, the play routes compiler cli for Scala 2.12 and Play 2.7 is used. However, you can specify a different compiler.

We provide 6 default compilers:

  • For Scala 2.11 + Play 2.5: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_11_play_2_5
  • For Scala 2.11 + Play 2.6: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_11_play_2_6
  • For Scala 2.11 + Play 2.7: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_11_play_2_7
  • For Scala 2.12 + Play 2.6: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_12_play_2_6
  • For Scala 2.12 + Play 2.7: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_12_play_2_7
  • For Scala 2.12 + Play 2.8: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_12_play_2_8
  • For Scala 2.13 + Play 2.8: @io_bazel_rules_play_routes//default-compiler-clis:scala_2_13_play_2_8

To bind one of the default compilers, simply specify the correct Play version in the call to play_routes_repositories and update the bind statement:

play_routes_repositories(<Play Version>, <Optional Scala Version, see below>)
load("@play_routes//:defs.bzl", play_routes_pinned_maven_install = "pinned_maven_install")
play_routes_pinned_maven_install()

bind(
  name = "default-play-routes-compiler-cli",
  actual = <Default Compiler Label>
)

Note: play_routes_respositories by default only needs to know the Play version. By default, there's no special config for the Scala version (just make sure you bind the right compiler label).

You can optionally include the Scala version, this might be needed for certain versions of Play.

Usage

The play_routes rule compiles Play routes files to a source jar that can be used with the rules_scala rules. For example,

load("@io_bazel_rules_play_routes//play-routes:play-routes.bzl", "play_routes")

play_routes(
  name = "play-routes",
  srcs = ["conf/routes"] + glob(["conf/*.routes"]),
  include_play_imports = True,
  generate_reverse_router = True,
  routes_imports = [...],
)

scala_binary(
  name = "foo-service",
  srcs = glob(["app/**/*.scala"]) + [":play-routes"],
  main_class = "foo.server.RunServer",
  deps = [...]
  )
)

See the Stardoc documentation for the full list of options for play_routes.

Use with the Play Framework

play_routes can be used with rules_twirl to run a Play Framework Service. For example

twirl_templates(
  name = "twirl-templates",
  source_directory = "app",
  include_play_imports = True,
  srcs = glob(["app/**/*.scala.html"])
    + glob(["app/**/*.scala.xml"])
    + glob(["app/**/*.scala.js"])
    + glob(["app/**/*.scala.txt"]),
  additional_imports = [...],
)

play_routes(
  name = "play-routes",
  srcs = ["conf/routes"] + glob(["conf/*.routes"]),
  include_play_imports = True,
  generate_reverse_router = True,
  routes_imports = [...],
)

scala_binary(
  name = "foo-service",
  srcs = glob(["app/**/*.scala"])  + [":twirl-templates", ":play-routes"],
  visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
  main_class = "play.core.server.ProdServerStart",
  resources = [
    "conf/logback.xml",
    # To make your static assets work:
    "//public",
  ] + glob(["conf/resources/**/*"]),
  resource_strip_prefix = native.package_name(),
  classpath_resources = ["conf/application.conf"],
  jvm_flags = [
  	"-Dhttp.port=9000",
  	"-Dapplication.name=foo-service",
  ],
  deps = [...],
)

For static assets to work, put this into your public/BUILD file:

filegroup(
    name = "public",
    srcs = glob(["**/*"]),
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
)

If you want to have webjars support (https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.8.1/AssetsOverview#WebJars), then check out https://github.com/gergelyfabian/rules_play_utils.

Development

Command Line Play Routes Compiler

This project consists of the Play routes Bazel rules and a command line Play routes compiler compiler. The command line compiler can be built with

bazel build //play-routes-compiler

It can be run with

bazel run //play-routes-compiler

Testing

All tests can be run using

test/run_all_tests.sh

They can also be run using

bazel test //test/...

Updating Third Party Dependencies

We use rules_jvm_external to import third party dependencies.

To make changes to the dependencies, simply update maven_install in the appropriate workspace.bzl file (workspace.bzl for the main rules_play_routes implementation or test_workspace.bzl for the tests), and then update the dependencies json file used by rules_jvm_external by running the following script:

scripts/gen-deps.sh

Never modify the dependencies json file directly.

Updating Stardoc

Before pushing your changes, make sure you update the documentation by running the following script:

scripts/gen-docs.sh

Failure to do so will result in CI failing.
