How to make an admin panel using Play framework 2.0/2.1

Question

I am doing with SCALA and Play Framework 2.1. I have doubt in mind that, is it possible to make an Admin panel using Play & SCALA?

An Admin panel may have CRUD. It will have some products. I need to manage all the Products through back-end. I have worked with Play 1.2 & Play 2.1. but didn't got chance to work on ADMIN panel.

Is there any module available for Back-end. Can anybody suggestion me on the same?

Answer 1

No, Play in general has no typical usage targeted, so there's no BE module or CRUD in Play 2, you need to create your panel yourself according to your needs.

Tip: fortunately there are available modules for authentication and authorization, so you don't need to create it from scratch, check for an example Play Authenticate for Java.

Easy way for building custom backends is using Twitter Bootstrap and Play's Forms although this approach is not as fast as CRUD known from Play 1.x - it gives you full flexibility with minimally higher cost.
