Grails Rocks
Here is a collection of things I have either created or been involved in relating to the Grails framework for building web applications with Groovy and Java…
Screencasts
Weceem 0.2 Admin UI Changes
(appx 5 minutes)
This screencast is for people interested in Weceem CMS but who have not downloaded and installed it – get a peek at the admin UI and some of the basic features.
Grails Rocks Screencast #1
Using the Grails mail plugin
(appx 14 minutes)
This screencast will show you how to use the grails-mail plugin to send plain text emails from a controller or service, from inline text or a GSP view. (Apologies for the poor voice audio quality)
Plugins
In the Grails plugin repository, you can find the following plugins I have written or contributed to:
- debug – A plugin that adds debug output and tags to render info into pages, such as the contents of the model, request attributes, request parameters, session etc.
- mail – “the” Grails mail plugin, written by Jeff Brown, Graeme Rocher and myself (I made a screencast and everyone seems to think that means I wrote the whole plugin!)
- static-resources – for aiding moving static media (CSS/JS/images etc) out of your app and into a separate folder)
- feeds – the RSS/Atom feed generating plugin
- authentication – a simple “works out of the box” pure Grails authentication plugin
- postcode – UK postcode lookup plugin (using free internal database)
- functional-testing – a simple Grails-y functional web testing plugin
- morph-deploy – a plugin that does the JNDI and JAR adjustments to make deployment to Mor.ph Appspace trivial
- navigation – a plugin for zero-effort convention-based navigation menus in your applications
- email-confirmation – a plugin for handling sending of email address confirmation mails with click-through links, token management etc.
- weceem – a powerful yet easy to use CMS
- taxonomy – adds really easy hierarchical “tagging” of domain classes, with methods to access all instances that have “tags” that are descendents or children of a given “tag”
