How to add IronMQ to my Play! java project?

Question

I am having problems with IronMQ in java. could not find how to get it from maven. so downloaded the jar into my lib folder. then kept getting runtime error.

[NoClassDefFoundError: com/google/gson/JsonSyntaxException]

now i'm stuck on this. waiting for an answer from support.

this answer came from their support.

you use these maven settings and add them to your build.scala file.

it uses gson so you need that too.

<repositories>
<repository>
<id>iron-io-repo</id>
<name>Iron.io Maven repository on GitHub</name>
<url>http://iron-io.github.com/maven/repository/</url>
</repository>
</repositories>

<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.code.gson</groupId>
<artifactId>gson</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>ironmq</groupId>
<artifactId>ironmq</artifactId>
<version>0.0.8</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
</dependencies> 

and here is my build.scala for it:

val appDependencies = Seq(
            // Add your project dependencies here,
            "com.google.code.morphia" % "morphia" % "0.99",
            "org.mongodb" % "mongo-java-driver" % "2.7.3",
            "com.google.code.morphia" % "morphia-logging-slf4j" % "0.99",
            "com.github.mumoshu" %% "play2-memcached" % "0.2.1-SNAPSHOT",
            "com.rabbitmq" % "amqp-client" % "2.8.4",
            "com.google.code.gson" % "gson" % "2.1",
            "ironmq" % "ironmq" % "0.0.8"
    )

    val main = PlayProject(appName, appVersion, appDependencies, mainLang = JAVA).settings(
            // Add your own project settings here
            resolvers += "Maven repository" at "http://morphia.googlecode.com/svn/mavenrepo/",
            resolvers += "MongoDb Java Driver Repository" at "http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/mongodb/mongo-java-driver/",
            resolvers += "Spy Repository" at "http://files.couchbase.com/maven2",
            resolvers += "Iron.io Maven repository on GitHub" at "http://iron-io.github.com/maven/repository/"
    )

and of course run reload and update after that. it should run successfully.
