Set up a Play 2.0 app with IDEA and SBT

Play 2.0 uses SBT. However, to create a module for a new project, it provides its own SBT action idea. You must create an IDEA project yourself and add a module to it. Good.

It's not bad that Play 2.0 is used from its source directory when unpacking, and there is a subdirectory repository/that is actually an ivy repository, separate from yours ~/.ivy2.

How do you configure the SBT build for the application? In imported libraries, IDEA cannot recognize the Scala compiler.

Playback sources are not in repository/. When I do publish-localbuild Play 2.0 from git, it lays the jar, currently on 2.0-RC3-SNAPSHOT, there, but not on the sources. Performing an SBT action package-srccreates the original jar, but seems to remain in place. Attaching it from IDEA still does not show the source FakeRequest.

Would it be preferable to rely on gen-ideathe SBT instead idea?

You can also connect to the playback debugger by launching the game with
