Play Framework CRUD generator

By alvin ~ Posted Thu, 04/03/2014 - 06:02

I don’t like to write basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) code, and furthermore I don’t like to charge clients for writing such basic code. As a result, I wrote a tool I named the Cato CRUD Generator to generate this code, rather than having to write it manually.

Over the last few days I’ve updated Cato so it can generate Play Framework CRUD code (Scala code, to be specific), including the following:

  • Model, view, and controller source code
  • Anorm code
  • JSON code
  • The Play conf/routes file

and much more. I won’t write any more about that here, but you can find my detailed Play Framework CRUD document at this link. You can also find my original Cato Play Framework CRUD generator video here.

I’m just getting back to business here in November, 2021, and eventually I’ll get a contact form set up here, but until then, I hope that works.
