Jacques Le Roux created OFBIZ-11205: ---------------------------------------
Summary: Move Groovy scripts from /groovyScripts/ to /src/main/groovy/ Key: OFBIZ-11205 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-11205 Project: OFBiz Issue Type: Improvement Components: ALL COMPONENTS Affects Versions: Trunk Reporter: Jacques Le Roux Fix For: Upcoming Branch As mentioned in this discussion: https://markmail.org/message/2grqu63yvfpvxzz6 {quote} Here is the (simple) plan: 1. We move all Groovy scripts from /groovyScripts/ to /src/main/groovy/ 2. We add the necessary packages names 3. Devs can then open "gradlew --continuous" in a terminal and let it like that. It will continuously build on any changes in Gradle sourcesets So, if you modify a Groovy scripts while running an OFBiz instance, the changes will be reflected in the instance and you can check possible syntax or alike issues in the terminal running the continuous build. It's very fast since only changes have an impact on the build. I'm sure there are other benefits to follow "the common convention of putting groovy compiled sources in ${COMPONENT}/src/main/groovy.", as suggested Mathieu. {quote} [~paulfoxworthy] added bq. This will encourage and accelerate moving Java services to Groovy, I think. And [~gil portenseigne]: bq. The main advantage I see is, beside compilation, the integration in your IDE, that was not optimum, and the possibility to re-use methods from these script migrated to explicit classes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
