How to use slick-joda-mapper with injected play.api.db.slick.DatabaseConfigProvider ?

I’d like to use dependency injection to make my choice of database configurable. In other words, I don’t want to hard code the database by doing something like

import com.github.tototoshi.slick.H2JodaSupport._

However, the example in the readme does not work with the latest Play 2.4.x, Slick 3.1.0 and slick-joda-mapper 2.1.0

import javax.inject.Inject
import com.github.tototoshi.slick.GenericJodaSupport
import org.joda.time.DateTime
import play.api.db.slick.DatabaseConfigProvider
import slick.driver.JdbcProfile

class MyRepository @Inject()(dbConfigProvider: DatabaseConfigProvider) {

  val dbConfig = dbConfigProvider.get[JdbcProfile]
  import dbConfig.driver.api._

  // Incompatible types !!
  // dbConfig.driver is an instance of JdbcProfile, not JdbcDriver
  private object PortableJodaSupport extends GenericJodaSupport(dbConfig.driver)

  import PortableJodaSupport._

  class MyTable(tag: Tag) extends Table[(Long, String, DateTime)](tag, "my_table") {
     def id = column[Long]("id", O.PrimaryKey)
     def name = column[String]("name")
     def time = column[DateTime]("date_time")
     def * = (id, name, time)
  }
  // ...
}

I don’t see an elegant way to get hold of Slick driver. Ugly workaround would be to read the configuration and try to find the Slick driver object in the classpath.

@jmcclell Released 2.2.0. Please try it.

@tototoshi Any word on the status of getting a stable 2.2 release for the switch to JdbcProfile from JdbcDriver? Do you have anything you need completed/tested/working before you release?
