I have written this code which works perfectly
class Items(tag: Tag) extends Table[Item](tag, "ITEMS") {
def id = column[Long]("ITEMS_ID", O.PrimaryKey, O.AutoInc)
def name = column[String]("ITEMS_NAME")
def price = column[Double]("ITEMS_PRICE")
def * = (id, name, price) <> ((Item.apply _).tupled, Item.unapply _)
}
object Shop extends Shop{
val items = TableQuery[Items]
val db = Database.forConfig("h2mem1")
def create(name: String, price: Double) : Int = {
val action = items ++= Seq(Item(0, name, price))
val future1 = db.run(action)
val future2 = future1 map {result =>
result map {x => x}
}
Await.result(future2, Duration.Inf).getOrElse(0)
}
}
This code works but the return value is number of records inserted. But I want to return the value of the AutoInc after the insert has been done.
i did google and found few articles
Slick 3.0.0 AutoIncrement Composite Key
Returning the auto incrementing value after an insert using slick
But somehow these do not answer the question cleanly.
