Play Framework 2.0 Find the current action in the view

Question

In a Play Framework 2.0 application, I would like to specify a CSS class for the active page. How to do it?

<li @if( ) { class="active" }> 
  <a href="@routes.Application.index()"> Home </a> 
</li>

In particular, what do I insert in an if statement?

Edit: you can try this for example ..

@if(request.uri.contains("home")){ 
  ..home word in url..
} else {
  ..home word not in url..
}
