[play framework] Seperate the admin, and build it as a module in play framework

I am a fresh man of java and play framework, maybe there is everyone know how to seperate the admin to a module, so please forgive me and help to build play framework better. :)

Let use yabe for example.

代码

| |~yabe/
| | |~app/
| | | |~controllers/
| | | | |-Admin.java*
| | | | |-Application.java*
| | | | |-Comments.java*
| | | | |-Posts.java*
| | | | |-Security.java*
| | | | |-Tags.java*
| | | | `-Users.java*
| | | |+models/
| | | |+views/
| | | `-Bootstrap.java*

In yabe, we can know that, the function of admin is developed in the root controllers, that is to say, CRUD is under the controllers, do you think that is not so convenience to manage the project?

But thanks to play-framework, we can build a admin module in it.

Here is the structure.

| |~yabe/
| | |~admin/
| | | |+app/
| | | |+conf/
| | | `+public/
| | |+app/
| | |+conf/
| | |+lib/
| | |+logs/
| | |+public/
| | |+test/
| | `+tmp/

1. Create the module.
Create a folder "admin" under the root, then you can just copy the folders (app, conf, public) to the admin

2. Add a file "Admin.java", locate at /admin/app/controllers, we will use it as the default entry of the module.

2. Add the code to the /conf/routes file

GET     /admin                                  module:admin

3. Modify the file /admin/conf/routs, remove all the code, and add the code as :

GET     /                                       Admin.index

Then start the project, and visit 127.0.0.1:9000/admin. Cool! The path of website is running well!

Have fun with play-framework!
