Grails - Reference Plugin Jar from the plugin's BuildConfig.groovy (Custom Resolver)
I have a plugin that loads a custom Ivy resolver. It uses ${basedir}
to locate the jar file containing the resolver so I can load it inside
BuildConfig (see the answer for context). That compiles the plugin, but unfortunately, when the plugin is installed in a project,basedir
becomes the project directory so it can't find the jar. pluginBasedir
doesn't seem to poi开发者_开发知识库nt to anything, even inside the plugin's BuildConfig.groovy.
Is there any way to figure out the plugin base directory from within a plugin's BuildConfig.groovy?
Ultimately I just want my custom resolver (in an external jar) to work when compiling the plugin and when compiling any project the plugin is a part of. Any solution is welcome.
The best answer I could come up with was to get my jar into a public Maven repo and use @Grab. e.g.,
@Grab(group='com.noahsloan.atg',module="atg-resolver",version="1.0")
import com.noahsloan.atg.ivy.AtgModuleRepository
grails.project.dependency.resolution = {
resolver AtgModuleRepository.newResolver
From my plugin. I'd still like to know if there is a way to reference pluginBasedir
from BuildConfig.
