About search method

In the play framework, the search function is grouped in a class called Model.Finder. The basic usage is to create an instance in Model and retrieve it as needed.

About Finder class

How to set up a Finder instance

new Finder<Primary key,entity>（Primary key.class,entity.class）;

Save the created instance in the static field, and retrieve the entity with that method if necessary.

How to set the toString class

	public String toString() {
		return ("[id:"+id+",name:"+name+",mail:"+mail+",message:"+message+",date:"+postdate+"]");
	}

Override the toString method of the object class for clarity (Reference about object class) https://docs.oracle.com/javase/jp/7/api/java/lang/Object.html

Whole Model class

package models;

import java.util.Date;

import javax.persistence.*;
import javax.validation.*;

import play.data.validation.*;
import play.db.ebean.*;

@Entity
public class Message extends Model {

	@Id
	public Long id;
	public String name;
	public String mail;
	public String message;
	public Date postdate;

	public static Finder<Long,Message>find = new Finder<Long,Message>(Long.class,Massage.class);

	@Override
	public String toString() {
		return ("[id:"+id+",name:"+name+",mail:"+mail+",message:"+message+",date:"+postdate+"]");
	}

}

About Controller class

Describe the settings so that the entity can be retrieved from the controller class.

Description method

List<entity>Variable = Finder instance.all();

A Java List is an ordered collection that can contain duplicate elements. (What is Reference List) https://eng-entrance.com/java-array-list#List

Items to add to the Application class

List<Message>datas=Message.find.all();

You are calling the all method of the find instance. The all method returns all the stored methods in a List.

Whole Application class

package controllers;

import play.*;
import play.mvc.*;

import views.html.*;

public class Application extends Controller {
    //Action when accessing the route
    public static Result index(){
      List<Message>datas=Message.find.all();
      return ok(index.render("Database sample"));
    }
}

About index.scala.html

Change the received list so that it can be output as it is.

whole index.scala.html

@(msg:String,datas:List[Message])

@main("Sample page") {
  <h1>Hello!</h1>
  <p>@msg</p>
  <pre>@datas</pre>
}
