Our project is currently using M3 and a colleague of mine had created an experimental branch using RC2 using workarounds to we are not pushing to any external environment, yet.

Hi all! We are using Grails 5, and we use namedQueries pretty extensively. Specifically, we're using them a lot to chain lots of small criteria together to make for really flexible, fluid, and reusable query logic. We've been trying to move away from them and toward more

where

queries, as namedQueries are deprecated and not supported in Grails 6+ (from my understanding), but we're finding the lack of ability to chain them together really limiting. I'm curious if others have any similar experience or alternative suggestions. I've gone through lengthy discussions with ChatGPT and was kind of disappointed with the results. Any thoughts, ideas, or best practices welcome!

@James Fredley Your fix for https://github.com/apache/grails-core/issues/15078 just reminded me to check one of my apps to see if I had the same issue in RC2. I noticed something else whether this is intentional or not. Adding the migration plugin adds an extra 49 jars to the war file (tested on your example project attached the the above issue). It seems the migration plugin is pulling in the grails-shell-cli which in turn is pulling in a lot of dependencies. Is the grails-shell-cli required at runtime?

Grails-7 questions. currently when I run my app as executable war file I have to do this in my build.gradle:

bootWar {
    from('grails-app/views') {
        into 'WEB-INF/grails-app/views'
    }

}

Or the gsp view can not be resolved. Also with war mode, i18n messages can not be loaded correctly. The whole setting(application.yml) and build.gradle works correct with grails 6.

I have an internal grails plugin that has some tests that require domain entities. These domain entities are only required to test the plugin code and are not useful to the main project. Is there a way to configure either (a) move test-domain entities out of grails-app/domain and later promote them to domain object when under test environment - or (b) suppress these from being dragged into the main project somehow? Thx

Working on upgrading to Grails 7 and seems the app will not auto generate the SSL cert like previous versions when running in development mode. I have worked around this by generating a cert myself and including the proper config in my application-development.yml file. By am wondering, is there a way to get the app to generate this like previous versions?

|Generating SSL certificate
Warning |
Unable to automatically generate SSL certificate, manual configuration required. Set 'server.ssl.key-store' in application.yml

I am working on upgrading my Grails app to Grails 7 RC 2. I am running into this error when building my project

Cannot resolve reloading agent JAR: Failed to resolve imported Maven boms: Could not find org.grails:grails-bom:7.0.0-RC2

These repos only have BOM versions up to 7.0.0-M3 https://repo.grails.org/ui/native/core/org/grails/grails-bom/ https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/grails/grails-bom/ Is there another repo that I need to add to my

build.gradle

that contains these artifacts?

Grails 2.5.6 - "Method on class was used outside of a Grails application" error I’m using Grails 2.5.6 and I created a simple Person domain and a PersonController.

Hello is grails website down?

Hi all, quick question, I've noticed that Date is mapped to datetime in MySQL which doesn't store the fractional seconds (SS.sss), thought the type has a length that allows to store up to 6 digits e.g. datetime(3) stores 3 fractional seconds. Is there a DSL to set the length of the datetime? Thanks!

Intercept session timeout I have an application written in Grails 6.x. I use spring-security-core and spring-security-ldap plugins to authenticate against an Active directory server. I have set a timeout of 5min and once the session expires I'm redirect correctly to the login page. The problem rises for the ajax call, in my js code I intercept a 401 status return and then redirect the user from the front end to the login page. But this never happens because it is intercept by the backend that redirects to the login...

So I keep getting “Missing X-content-type-options header” on vulnerability scans. So I added “nosniff” to the headers in an interceptor. The issue is, the scan is showing the issue on /assets/js file. So if I do something like localhost:8080/assets/jsfile I am not getting the nosniff header. I was wondering if there is a way to configure the tomcat server itself in something like the application.yml file to add no sniff? Or if there is another way to get that header?

Hi all, is https://repo.grails.org/ down?

Could it be it needs turning off and on again?

seems to be working for me at the moment

Hmmm, i'll try another machine, thanks for sharing.

Does any user or recommend a package/plugin to generate openapi/swagger documentation? Using Grails 6.2.3.

Is there any brave person willing to test seed-me recompiled with Apache Grails 7.0.0-RC2 (https://github.com/wondrify/seed-me/pull/30)?

is this the correct way to specify multipple optional config files in application.yml for a grails 6 app?

spring:
    config:
        import: >
            optional:file:${PATH_EXT_CONFIG:-/app/config}/application.yml,
            optional:file:${PATH_EXT_CONFIG:-/app/config}/application.groovy,
            optional:file:${PATH_EXT_CONFIG:-/app/config}/custom-application.yml

Idiomatic I mean

@Mark Johnson or look at the external-config plugin: https://github.com/sbglasius/external-config

@sbglasius thanks!

grails:
    config:
        locations:
            - optional:file:${PATH_EXT_CONFIG:-/app/config}/application.yml
            - optional:file:${PATH_EXT_CONFIG:-/app/config}/application.groovy
            - optional:file:${PATH_EXT_CONFIG:-/app/config}/custom-application.yml

assuming that in

#application.yml

a.list:
    - name: example1
      description: desc1

and assuming that in

#custom-application.yml

a.list:
    - name: example1
      description: desc1
    - name: example2
      description: desc2

which one will should take precedence also is

optional:

valid in your plugin i dont see any reference, can i dispense with it

Why did json views syntax change between Grails 4 and Grails 5? While upgrading a Grails 4 application to Grails 5, I encountered a failure in one of the json views (.gson file) when specifying a field having an empty map. In Grails 4, this worked fine, but in Grails 5 I have to put parentheses around the empty map literal, or the render call fails saying that there is no property of the view class with that name. I wrote the following unit test to reproduce the behavior: import grails.plugin.json.view.test.JsonRenderResult import...

I've been asked about CSRF protection, does Grails take care of it automagically? This is what ChatGPT is telling me, but I havent found anything on Spring Security Core docs, any word of wisdom? ChatGPT says I can use this, is she (don't ask LOL) allucinating?

grails:
    plugin:
        springsecurity:
            csrf:
                enabled: true
                tokenName: _csrf
                headerName: X-CSRF-TOKEN

Spring Security question. Annotation does not work when RequestMap is stored in DB (Doc section 4.6). For example this won’t work

@Secured("hasRole('ROLE_ADMIN')")
    def index(Integer max) {

But it works if we use Static RequestMap (Doc section 4.5). Is this a correct behaviour?
