How to include webapp_config.txt to Play's dist zip?

I've created a prod.conf file which is my configuration file for my production environment. I'd like to ask, is there a way so that whenever I do play dist, the webapp_config.txt file that I've created is included in the zip and placed in the root directory of my web app?

Thanks in advance!

Check out the sbt task mappings in dist. It is a sequence of tuples (File -> String) that represent which files will be mapped to which paths in the resulting zip file.

In your case the steps to follow are:

  1. add addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-native-packager" % "0.7.1") to the project/plugins.sbt file

  2. import com.typesafe.sbt.SbtNativePackager._ in your build file

  3. add the following to your project settings

    mappings in (Universal, packageBin) += (baseDirectory.value / "webapp_config.txt") -> "webapp_config.txt"
