I'd like to create some custom commands to manage my play 2.0 application (similar to Django's management commands), so I can run things like play import-data <data>
.
This seems to be something one would do by writing SBT commands (like Play's own), but specific to the particular project and with access to a project's resources (models etc.)
Being fairly new to Scala, and new to both Play and SBT, I cannot get my head around how to do this, and particularly the dependency management that is involved. The SBT plugin documentation is very nice, but it seems to assume I want to create standalone, published plugins, rather than ones that depend on the main project.
Does anyone know of a walkthrough for something similar, or have any specific suggestions for how "management commands" could otherwise be implemented?
