A plugin for grails to include the Common Reusable SHell - CRaSH

Installation

Just install the plugin with e.g. grails install-plugin crash to embed CRaSH into your grails application. It includes the ssh shell and by default listens on port 2000 with the username/password 'admin'. So make sure to change that for production! For general documentation on CRaSH visit the CRaSH project website.

Configuration

To start up CRaSH, a spring bean named crashSpringWebBootstrap of type SpringWebBootstrap is defined. Its config properties can be set by assigning a map of config properties to 'plugin.crash.config', e.g.:

plugin.crash.config = [
            'crash.ssh.port': 2001,
            'crash.auth.simple.password': 'secretPassword'
    ]

runtime 'org.crsh:crsh.shell.telnet:1.2.6'

Grails specific usage

There is an evaluate command available which takes a String as argument which is evaluated as a groovy script. This script has the GrailsApplication instance available as grailsApplication from which pretty much everything grails related should be accessible.
