Grails Shell Plugin

Simple plugin that uses ConqueTerm to run tests, interact with the shell, and use the grails console inside vim. To use this you need to have ConqueTerm installed beforehand. If using pathogen:

If thats the case you can do:

cd~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/rosenfeld/conque-term.git
git clone https://github.com/hoffoo/vim-grails-console.git

You can also use VAM, in this case you don’t need to worry about dependencies:

" In your vimrccallvam#ActivateAddons(["grails-conque"])

Testing

You can either run the entire file or the test function under your cursor.

" Start the grails shell
:StartGrailsConque
" Run the current file as a Grails test
:GrailsRunTestFile
" Run the Test under the cursor
:GrailsRunCurrentTest
" Rerun the last test
:GrailsReRun

" Settings:" NOTE: all the keymappings apply only to the _grails_ buffer so not to conflict" with the rest of your setup" set this to open the shell buffer across the bottom in a splitletg:GrailsShellStartSplit=1" remap an insert mode key to switch back to previous bufferletg:GrailsShellReturnKey="<C-w><C-w>"" if this is set insert mode backspace will be remapped to <C-w> to delete " whole word backwardsletg:GrailsShellRemapBS=1" command that will be passed the tests url when running :GrailsTestsBrowserletg:GrailsTestsBrowser="chromium --app=file://"" You can override the path to the grails executable using:" default is grailsletg:GrailsShellExecutable="/opt/grails/bin/grails"" Recommended Conque settingsletg:ConqueTerm_ReadUnfocused=1" run while not the selected windowletg:ConqueTerm_CloseOnEnd=1" quit grails when done

You can open a browser frame to show the html output of your tests:

" this is the executable that will be ran when opening the test result pages" open in chromium/google-chrome frame with no tabsletg:GrailsTestsBrowser='chromium --app=file://'letg:GrailsTestsBrowser='firefox '" NOTE: notice the space" open with regular tabletg:GrailsTestsBrowser='/usr/bin/google-chrome '" and then to open the browser with
:GrailsTestsBrowser

Console

Provided you have the grails-console plugin you can run scripts directly to the grails app from vim.

:GrailsRunConsole <filename>.groovy" send the file to groovy console" Note that by default :GrailsReRun will only rerun tests - to enable" rerun of console set the option letg:GrailsReRunConsole=1

The default behaviour is to enter insert mode after switching back to the grails buffer so Conque will update. This way it does not override the g:ConqueTerm_InsertOnEnter. You can disable this with g:GrailsShellInsertOnEnter.

TODO:

• Search upwards if we are in a sub directory of a grails project
• Regex upwards to find the test function name, rather than passing it with the cursor
