JarCastingTwirl Maven Plugin
A Maven plugin which compiles Twirl templates into Scala source files.
Twirl lets you write type-safe, compiled templates in Scala:
// Hello.scala.html
@(name: String)
<h1>Hello, @name!</h1>
which you then render in code:
html.Hello.render("Jake")
to yield the final result:
<h1>Hello, Jake!</h1>
Usage
Add the plugin in your pom.xml:
<plugin>
<groupId>com.jakewharton.twirl</groupId>
<artifactId>twirl-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.2.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
and specify a dependency on the Twirl API:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.typesafe.play</groupId>
<artifactId>twirl-api_2.12</artifactId>
<version>1.4.1</version>
</dependency>
By default the plugin looks for templates in src/main/twirl/ and compiles to target/generated-sources/twirl/. The output folder is automatically added as a source root on the project.
The generated code is a Scala source file for each template which still need to be compiled using something like the scala-maven-plugin.
Snapshots of the development version are available in Sonatype's snapshots repository.
