testing: How to make route method works in Play 2.x sub-project?

mercredi 25 février 2015

I have a Play 2.3 project with a sub-project inside. Following this tutorial, I am writing a test for sub-project's controller with route method:


"Get Action" in new WithApplication {
  val Some(result) = route(FakeRequest(GET, "/sub/bob/11"))

  status(result) mustEqual OK
}

Assumed in routes.conf, the sub-project routes is configured like this:


->  /sub    sub.Routes

And in sub.Routes, it contains:


GET  /bob/:id    controllers.sub.BobController.get(id: Int)

However the route() method always returns None. Using route(FakeRequest(GET, "/bob/11")) doesn't work too.

Currently I can only solve the problem by direct call to the Controller's method:


val result = BobController.get(11)(FakeRequest(GET, "/bob/11"))

In this case, the "11" parameter in the "/bob/11" become useless as it's unused.

So anyone know how to make the route() works for sub-project?
