Is there a way to include a plain html page inside a Play Framework's view template? I have a scenario wherein there is a common view template and in the body of the template, I would like to include certain static html pages. I know that I can include other templates inside a certain template, but I'm not sure if I could include a plain html page?

One option is to just make your static HTML a template, eg, create myStaticPage.scala.html:
<h1>Static page</h1>
<p>This page is static, though it is still a template.</p>
Then your view template, myView.scala.html:
@(staticPage: Html)
<html>
<head>...</head>
<body>@staticPage</body>
</html>
And then in your action that renders the template:
def renderMyStaticPage = Action {
Ok(views.html.myView(views.html.myStaticPage())
}
You just need to make sure that your HTML page escapes any @ symbols with @@.
On the other hand, if which HTML page that's being included is more dynamic, then simply load the HTML from the file/database/classloader/whereever it's coming from, eg:
def renderMyStaticPage = Action {
val staticPage: String = // code to load static page here
Ok(views.html.myView(Html(staticPage))
}
You could.
Just put something like that in your routes file:
GET /file controllers.Assets.at(path="/public", file="html/file.html")
