I want to include the Grails application name in some of my configuration settings in grails-app/Config.groovy
. I've tried many ways without success. For example, if I have the following in my Config.groovy
,
edu.appname1 = "${grailsApplication.metadata.'app.name'}"
edu.appname2 = "${application.metadata.'app.name'}"
edu.appname3 = "${metadata.'app.name'}"
edu.appname4 = "${app.name}"
I can run these statements in the Grails console
def edu = grailsApplication.config.edu
println "${'''${grailsApplication.metadata.'app.name'} -> '''}${edu.appname1}"
println "${'''${application.metadata.'app.name'} -> '''}${edu.appname2}"
println "${'''${metadata.'app.name'} -> '''}${edu.appname3}"
println "${'''${app.name} -> '''}${edu.appname4}"
with the following results.
${grailsApplication.metadata.'app.name'} -> [:]
${application.metadata.'app.name'} -> [:]
${metadata.'app.name'} -> [:]
${app.name} -> [:]
There must be some way to get this information.
To get the appName in a config file that you're including with grails.config.locations
you can use:
appName = grails.util.Metadata.current.'app.name'
