How to import Play framework as a dependency in Scala project

Question

I forked btce-scala, so I can work on a trading bot. I'm cleaning up this library by adding the normal sbt project structure, making a build.sbt, etc:

~/code/scala/btce-scala) cat build.sbt
name := "btce-scala"

version := "0.1"

resolvers += "Typesafe Repository" at "http://repo.typesafe.com/typesafe/releases/"

scalaVersion := "2.10.3"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
    "net.liftweb" % "lift-json_2.9.1" % "2.6-M2",
    "org.specs2" %%  "specs2" % "2.3.8" % "test",
    "joda-time" % "joda-time" % "2.3",
    "org.joda" % "joda-convert" % "1.6",
    "commons-codec" % "commons-codec" % "1.9",
    "com.typesafe.play" % "play_2.2.2" % "2.2.2"
)

My problem is that I'm not sure how to import the latest version of Play framework. I need it to use play.api.libs.ws.WS.

[error] (*:update) sbt.ResolveException: unresolved dependency: com.typesafe.play#play_2.2.2;2.2.2: not found

Obviously this is because it can't find Play_2.2.2, but where can I find this repo so I can add it to sbt?

Answer 1

Your dependency is wrong. Use this instead:

libraryDependencies ++= Seq("com.typesafe.play" %% "play" % "2.2.2")
