IntelliJ IDE does not detect Scala templates correctly

Question

I am trying to get the working environment to work correctly in IntelliJ, but it seems that my Scala patterns are not detected properly. These are the steps I took:

Setup:

• Brew install the game
• Brew install sbt
• Download and install the play Framework plugin for IntelliJ
• Download and install the Scala plugin for IntelliJ
• Download and install the SBT plugin for IntelliJ

From the terminal, I run this (in the following order):

• play the new doTest
• play clean compile
• reproduction idea
• SBT
• generator idea

In IntelliJ, I open a project and check the target / scala -2.10 / src_managed / main / controllers / routes file and look like this:

I also tried following the steps step by step to set up a completely new installation:

And after completing all the steps, IntelliJ still cannot resolve the Scala templates. This is from a brand new game:

I can compile, run tests from the IDE and see the changes I made in the browser. The only thing that doesn't work is help in IntelliJ code. I have no idea how to act at this moment, any help is greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

So, I finally managed to figure it out. It seems like IntelliJ is picking compiled Scala templates. Right-click on the target folder and select "Mark Directory As" → "Excluded", fixing the problem for me.

Answer 2

IntelliJ does not use the routes file as the source file. However, he knows the routes, so if you do something like routes. Application, it can solve it.
