Exception when starting app with Slick, PlayFramework and PostgreSQL

Question

I'm trying to store some data in a PostgreSQL database. This could be done by a tiny little Form rendered by PlayFramework. I want to test the Slick plugin to have some experience with it, but I'm getting stuck in this exception:

ProvisionException: Unable to provision, see the following errors:

1) Could not find a suitable constructor in services.Consumptions.
Classes must have either one (and only one) constructor annotated with
@Inject or a zero-argument constructor that is not private.

what im doing wrong? My project/plugins.sbt is:

// The Play plugin
addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.play" % "sbt-plugin" % "2.5.10")

// web plugins

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-coffeescript" % "1.0.0")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-less" % "1.1.0")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-jshint" % "1.0.4")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-rjs" % "1.0.8")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-digest" % "1.1.1")

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-mocha" % "1.1.0")

addSbtPlugin("org.irundaia.sbt" % "sbt-sassify" % "1.4.6")

The main problem is that this works fine and save all in the PostgreSQL database:

object MyApp extends App {

    val query = TableQuery[Consumptions]
    val db = Database.forConfig("pg-postgres")

    try {
        Await.result(
            db.run(DBIO.seq(query += consumption(0, DateTime.now(), 50.5,50.5,50.5,50.5))), 
            Duration.Inf
        )
    } finally {
        db.close
    }
}

This is the controller:

@Singleton
class HouseSummary @Inject()(consumptions: Consumptions) extends Controller {

  val query = TableQuery[Consumptions]
  val db = Database.forConfig("pg-postgres")

  def add = Action { implicit request =>
    summaryForm.bindFromRequest.fold(
      formWithErrors => {
        // binding failure, you retrieve the form containing errors:
        BadRequest(formWithErrors.toString)
      },
      summaryData => {
        /* binding success, you get the actual value. */
        val newEntry = AddSummaryRequest(
          summaryData.date,
          summaryData.waterconsumption,
          summaryData.electricityheater_1,
          summaryData.electricityheater_2,
          summaryData.electricitymain
        )

        Consumptions.add(newEntry)

        try {
          Await.result(db.run(DBIO.seq(

            query += consumption(
              0,
              new DateTime(newEntry.date),
              summaryData.waterconsumption,
              summaryData.electricityheater_1, summaryData.electricitymain,
              summaryData.electricityheater_2
            )
          )), Duration.Inf)
        } finally db.close

        Ok(s"Erfolgreich gespeichert für das Datum: ${summaryData.date}")
      }
    )
  }

  def summaryForm = Form(
    mapping(
      "date" -> date,
      "waterconsumption" -> of[Double],
      "electricityheater_1" -> of[Double],
      "electricityheater_2" -> of[Double],
      "electricitymain" -> of[Double]
    )(AddSummaryRequest.apply)(AddSummaryRequest.unapply))

}

Answer 1

I found the error. I have tried to Inject the Consumption class and that dont work if the class you want to inject haven't a Constructor or something like that because guice don't know how to inject this class.

Change this:

class HouseSummary @Inject()(consumptions: Consumptions) extends Controller

To that:

class HouseSummary @Inject()() extends Controller

fixed the Problem
