Playframework with thread-pool for background job

In my playframework application (I'm very new to play) I want to be able to handle events rising from the domain model that will be published to an AMQP exchange. I think this could be a multi-threaded background event handler that handles the events and handles the connections to the message broker. I have had had a look at the Jobs class but can't see a way to specify any kind of thread pool. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Best,

Jon

ThreadPool is managed by Play, not by app. What you need to do is just create a job class, and schedule it to run:

@On("cron.handleAMQP")
public class MyAMQPHandler extends play.jobs.Job{
   public void doJob() {
      // your logic to handle AMQP message comes here
   }
}

Where "cron.handleAMQP" could be one item in your application.conf:

cron.handleAMQP=0 0 12 * * ?
