Play Framework - Redirect with params

Question

I am trying to figure out how to do a redirect within a controller action in Play (2.0) using Scala.

The redirect using

Redirect(routes.Application.index         


        

Answer 1

You can also avoid creating another function just for this in your controller. In your route config, you can simply add something like this:

  GET  /google  @controllers.Default.redirect(to = "http://google.com")

Answer 2

A route is just a function, so you can pass arguments as usual:

// Redirect to /hello/Bob
def helloBob = Action {
    Redirect(routes.Application.hello("Bob"))    
}

This snippet comes from http://www.playframework.org/documentation/2.0/ScalaRouting (at the bottom)
