Lets try and get you up to speed using Scalate as quickly as possible.

This guide will assume you have a reasonably recent installation of Maven, say version 2.0.9 or later. If you don’t, please install one now.

Lets use one of the Scalate Maven archetypes to create a new Jog project that we can use as a base on which to build.

In a command line type this:

mvn archetype:create \
  -DarchetypeGroupId=org.fusesource.scalate.tooling \
  -DarchetypeArtifactId=scalate-archetype-guice \
  -DarchetypeVersion=1.0-SNAPSHOT \
  -DgroupId=myGroup -DartifactId=myArtifact 

You might want to change the last line changing myGroup and myArtifact to whatever maven groupId and artifactId you want to use.

Now you’ve successfully created a base Jog project using Scalate, Scala, Jersey and Guice.

Now change directory to the new myArtifact directory (or whatever name you used)

cd myArtifact

To run the project run the following command

mvn jetty:run

Now when the application starts up you should be able to point your browser at http://localhost:8080 to run the application.
