Creating an Eclipse-based Groovy Development Environment for TDD

A number of the Java components in the Broadchoice Behavioral Analytics product are built using Groovy instead of Java. The purpose of this document is to walk you through creating a Groovy development environment within Eclipse and the creation and testing of your first Groovy class. Don't panic, it's dead-simple.

Groovy Generation of NetBeans Modules

I'm continuing to be impressed with the usefulness of Groovy in getting started with source structures for applications. Yesterday I showed how to generate a NetBeans Platform application from a Groovy script. Today I present... a Groovy script that will generate a NetBeans module.

RESTful Web Services in 60 Seconds

Is this even possible? Yes, trust me, if I can do it, so can you. You may ask, from Groovy and Grails in one day, how did I shift gears to web services. It all started while I was reading and working the samples from chapter 9 Web Services of “Beginning Groovy and Grails from Novice to Professional“. With the help of the sample provided in the book, I was able to get a RESTful web services for the Grails application.

Grails development made even simpler using NetBeans IDE 6.5

After having read the book Beginning Groovy and Grails: From Novice to Professional, I was wondering if it was ever going to be as simple as a few clicks in any IDE for Grails development. Just yesterday, I read an article by Geertjan Wielenga(who is also my colleague at Javalobby/DZone) about how to get started with Grails in NetBeans IDE 6.5 in 5 simple steps. I had worked with NetBeans quite a lot for EJB3 development but I had never used it for either Groovy or Grails; the choice earlier was always Eclipse IDE.

Good idea: Java and Groovy with Netbeans 6.5M1

In my previous blog I forgot to mention the most important benefit of Netbeans 6.5 - the ability to seamlessly mix Groovy and Java within the same project (zero developer effort required). Whilst this is a property of Groovy/JVM, Netbeans removes all the hassle of buildscripts, library management, classpaths, ever growing command lines, etc. The support for calling Groovy from Java is excellent - with full code completion (and includes things like automatic getter and setters you don’t need to write in Groovy).

Groovy, Grails and JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA

I might be late in the game with this post, but I have to comment on some niceness I have experienced when working with Groovy, Grails and IntelliJ IDEA 7.0. I received a license for IntelliJ IDEA when I attended the Groovy/Grails Experience in February 2008. That ended up being a very cool event; learning from the creators and contributors and getting software to make life easier all in one weekend.

Interesting new build tool: Gradle

Panning the whirling RSS feeds for nuggets of gold, I came across something I had almost given up on finding: a build tool that I could imagine giving up Ant for. Now I’m an Ant fan from way back, having used it In Anger as far back as 1999. I’ve heard the pitches for Maven, and have been sympathetic, but never made the jump. It always seemed like something that was good in theory, but which scared me in practice. The mixed praises and pans that Maven earned from the Massed Mind of the web seemed to cement that opinion, and in spite of some extremely trusted colleagues backing it, I never managed to pull the trigger. At this point, I’m not sure I will, now that I’ve stumbled across Gradle

Seam + Groovy + Maven : Nice Simple Hibernate POJOs

Hudson - Tips and Tricks

Hudson is an open source CI server that is by far the easiest one to configure. Second to ease of use is Hudson’s impressive plug-in framework, which makes it easy to add features. For instance, Hudson has a plug-in for tracking FindBugs issues, PMD issues, and CheckStyle issues over time as well as code coverage. It also trends test results from JUnit, as well as build results and corresponding execution times. In spite of all these cool features, we had to find ways to get around some common issues we faced at work using Hudson. This article describes a few real-life tips and tricks that we have found at work and will assist in configuring Hudson to work most effectively in your environment as well.

How (and why) to get started with Mercurial

Slide show that compares Mercurial (a DVCS) vs. Subversion as well as other DVCS systems like Git and Bazaar. It goes into some common usage commands for people familiar with a system like Subversion. Also includes a quick live-coding session in Grails that demonstrates cloning repositories and then pushing and pulling changes back and forth to show how Mercurial handles merging and history.

[Groovy] Maven Pom to Ivy Dependencies

Last night I needed a way to quickly convert a large amount of pom dependency syntax into Ivy dependency syntax. A quick google search didn't reveal much so instead of wasting time searching deeper I wrote my own. I don't claim this to be perfect in any way. I wrote it as quickly as possible. Feel free to use it, modify it, or whatever.

Gant with Hudson in 5 steps

Gant is a Groovy-based build system that uses Ant’s extensive collection of flower power tasks without all of the nasty XML– this enables you to leverage greater flexibly when it comes to hiply assembling software. Capitalizing on this flexibility within a CI process, however, can be somewhat challenging, unless, that is, you happen to be using Hudson, baby!

Scripting Hadoop Jobs in Groovy

A tool for those groups that need to expose Hadoop to the 'casual' user who needs to get and manipulate valuable data on a Hadoop cluster, but doesn't have the time to learn Java, the Hadoop API, or to think in MapReduce to solve problems that are a notch or more above trivial.

FEST + Easyb: making UI testing easier

FEST stands for Fixtures for Easy Software Testing, it targets UI testing (Java Swing for the time being). Easyb makes Behavior Driven Development a snap. Use them together and you have a recipe for success. Let's revisit a previous example of FEST+Groovy, a very basic app that retrieves the definition of a word the user may type

Does IDE Support Influence Your Language Choice?

A huge reason for me to make a little detour to Groovyland, was IntelliJ IDEA's excellent Groovy support. It's almost as good as with Java. Scala's IDE support on the other hand is very rudimentary. Does IDE Support Influence Your Language Choice?

From Ant to Gant

Andrew Glover is the first to report on Gant's latest trick: a converter from Ant to Gant. With this little script you'll be able to replace those ugly angle brackets with nice and cool Groovy code in no time. So if you were holding back on trying out Gant because that would mean you have to rewrite your build scripts from scratch, take ant2gant for a spin and be Groovy, and if you do please be sure to send some feedback to the Gant dev team.

Writing Groovy Maven plugins in NetBeans

When updating the mojo.codehaus.org svn repository, I noticed there's a new maven plugin in the sandbox with a cool name: "IANAL Maven Plugin" . I've opened the project in NetBeans to see what the plugin does. However the plugin seems to be written in Groovy, not Java. So I installed the latest Groovy support in NetBeans from the update center.

Monitoring HTTP traffic to debug your Grails application

I’m often surprised when I run across developers who don’t have a variety of HTTP traffic monitoring apps as an integral part of their toolkit. When doing Grails development (or any web development really), being able to see the actual information that is going over the wire is invaluable.
