play-scala-seed
This is a seed project based on a giter8 template.
To run the project, assuming you have sbt installed (it is installed for you on turing), cd into its top-level directory and run:
sbt
Then, from the sbt prompt, to start it on port 1234
run 1234
If you are on a shared machine (eg, turing) you should
choose a port number nobody else is using. On turing,
there is a script my_tomcat_ports
that can give you
some random port numbers to use.
To stop the server, press Ctrl-d
To exit the sbt prompt, press Ctrl-d again
