Dynamic Templates in Play Framework 2.0

A Play 1.0exists TemplateLoaderfor generating patterns at runtime.

Is there any solution for dynamically loading a template in Play 2.0? Or can I somehow convert it to scala code for use Eval?

For example: I want to save some templates in a database so that some users can edit them.

It seems that the corresponding code is in the framework/src/play/src/main/scala/system/ApplicationProvider.scalaPlay 2.0 directory, especially in the classroom ReloadableApplication. I'm not sure how this compiler will work on the fly for you, because you do not want to do this when a template is requested (it is slow). This means that storing in the database does not make much sense: you do not want to store the source code of the template, but rather a compiled template object.

For arguments, if you just wrote templates in a directory app/views, you can leave Play to compile them at your leisure. But then be careful, because they probably won’t compile in the production system.

Play 2.0 already compiles your templates to object methods, so you don’t need to dynamically load them.
