Grails Postcode plugin and static-resources plugin

Posted by: on Mar 26, 2008 | No Comments

I just committed a new UK Postcode plugin to the Grails plugins SVN repo. Docs are here – but basically it lets you look up UK postcodes to get the center of the "sector" in lat/lon, and also to calculate the distance in km between two postcode centres – all without using an online geocoding service like Google Maps API. i.e. this is completely standalone and uses data from the excellent free site nearby.org.uk

I also took the opportunity to sort out the SVN structure for my static-resources plugin which was a bit hosed, fixed a trivial NPE that occurred on reload, and upgraded it to Grails 1.0.2

Enjoy!
