Learning Play! Framework 2

How do you break a Monolith into Microservices at Scale?

Book Details

This has kind of rekindled my interest in learning the framework. I have started reading the book and completed about 2 chapters. This book has 9 chapters and 2 appendices and is about pages. Its small size is always a welcome among the readers, I personally dont like reading huge books. There is also a chapter introducing Scala but a prior experience not an expert experience, but can get through like in Scala is an advantage.

The book has placed the chapters in an order which helps in exploring a lot of features of the framework and in the process develops an sample application. In this chapter, there is a tiny introduction to Less, as I said before, in my opinion, this only adds some noise to the picture.

This chapter contains a quick introduction to ORM's and how we can validate the input data easily in Play Framework.

In this chapter our little app becomes dynamic as we push data from the server to the Browser. Again, there is some noise due to the unneeded? Our little app becomes asynchronous. I think the author doesn't manage to explain the complexity of asynchronicity and how it works behind the scenes. Testing is usually the forgotten part of all this introduction books. It explains the different types of testing and how this can be accomplished with Specs2. The author decided to spend some time explaining how we can bring our little application to a Live environment. It describes briefly which services can be used and are compatible with Play Framework.

I hope the author keeps it up to date in further editions. May 23, Sumit Bisht rated it really liked it. This book is great for java developers looking to develop play framework applications through Scala. While the new features of Play2 are covered, ample amount of scala is also discussed; from basics to application.

The deployment section is also quite updated and covers cloud deployments but the testing chapter loses the pace set by the book; mock based testing is not clear. One problem while reading the ebook version is that code examples are shown straight out of sublime text, so directly using This book is great for java developers looking to develop play framework applications through Scala. One problem while reading the ebook version is that code examples are shown straight out of sublime text, so directly using the code while reading is a bit painful.

However, the book provides a download for the same. If you are looking to learn and use play framework or scala or any quick and fast scala based web application framework, this is the book for you.

For absolute beginners, I'd recommend using this text alongside or after finishing with the official documentations.
