public interface PathBindable<T extends PathBindable<T>>

Binder for path parameters. Any type T that implements this class can be bound to/from a path parameter. The only requirement is that the class provides a noarg constructor. For example, the following type could be used to bind an Ebean user:

 @Entity
 class User extends Model implements PathBindable<User> {
     public String email;
     public String name;

     public User bind(String key, String email) {
         User user = findByEmail(email);
         if (user != null) {
             user;
         } else {
             throw new IllegalArgumentException("User with email " + email + " not found");
         }
     }

     public String unbind(String key) {
         return email;
     }

     public String javascriptUnbind() {
         return "function(k,v) {\n" +
             "    return v.email;" +
             "}";
     }

     // Other ebean methods here
 }
 

Then, to match the URL /user/[email protected], you could define the following route:

 GET  /user/:user     controllers.Users.show(user: User)
