import org.scalaquery.meta.MTable
import org.scalaquery.session.Session

import play.api.GlobalSettings
import play.api.Application

object Global extends GlobalSettings {

    override def onStart(app: Application)  {

        DBGlobal.db.withSession { session : Session =>
            import org.scalaquery.session.Database.threadLocalSession
            import org.scalaquery.ql.extended.PostgresDriver.Implicit._
            if (!makeTableMap(session).contains("tableName")) {
                UsersTable.ddl.create(session)
            }
        }
    }

    def makeTableMap(dbsess: Session): Map[String, MTable] = {
        val tableList = MTable.getTables.list()(dbsess)
        val tableMap = tableList.map {
        t => (t.name.name, t)
    }.toMap
        tableMap
    }
}
