How to create an Eclipse Scala project in typesafe activator?

Question

I have installed typesafe activator, created a project, added my own Scala classes and successfully compiled and run my code.

Now I was looking for a function to eclipsify my project using activator (similarly to what can be done with play) but I cannot find anything neither on the typesafe website nor by searching the internet.

Does activator provide such a function?

Answer 2

You can do this from the Activator Web UI. After selecting/opening your project, in the "Your application is ready" pop-up select "Code view & Open in IDE". In the following code view there's the "Browse code" column.. to the right of the "Browse code" headline, there's a little gear wheel. That will open a menu that let's you open the project outside of Activator:

Answer 3

in SBT type eclipse, in activator select code/edit/eclipse
