specify https port in play framework 2.0

How do I specify which port for Play https to start on? In Play 1.2.4 I would add to the application.conf:

https.port=9443

But Play 2.0 does not seem to support this anymore. Also, this syntax plainly does not work:

play start -Dhttps.port=9443

although this way does work for regular http: play start 9100

Anyone know how to do this for https?

For what it's worth, it looks like it was added back in by version 2.1.

The latest docs: http://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.3.x/ConfiguringHttps

If you still want to have HTTPS support in Play 2, it looks like it has been added. I see it is a system property with the name "https.port" as you specified. The change has been in there for a while now. I think what you had tried before should work now under 2.0.3.

Here is where I found that source. It wasn't in the docs. https://github.com/playframework/Play20/blob/master/framework/src/play/src/main/scala/play/core/server/NettyServer.scala

There is a Play 2.0 branch that supports HTTPS.

Official issue status is "in progress", as of time of writing.

According to this answer on the Play! discussion group, direct https support is not available in Play! 2.0 yet:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/play-framework/I7I7lULd0cI

If you need https, you can either stick with Play! 1.2.4, or put an https-capable web server in front, such as Apache or nginx.
