grails install-plugin javascript-url-mappings

Last updated by dan_lynn 1 year ago

A Grails plugin to provide client-side reverse URL mappings outside of GSP files. Just put one taglib call in your layout and your static javascript files can make use of Grails' UrlMappings

Example usage (jQuery)

<!-- Place this tag in your layout's head element: -->
    <g:urlMappings />    <script type="text/javascript">
    var url = g.createLink({controller: 'news', action: 'fetch', params: {since: new Date()}});
    $('#myDiv').load(url);
    var img = document.createElement('img');
    img.src = g.resource({dir: 'images', file: 'icon.gif'});
    </script>

More usage examples can be found in the javascript unit tests: http://github.com/danklynn/grails-javascript-url-mappings/blob/0.1/grails-app/views/index.gsp

Current Status

Currently reverse-maps all controllers and actions, using the params controller , action , and optionally id . Supports building static resource URLs through use of the g.resource() function, using the params dir and file just like the built-in Grails taglib.

Recent Changes

0.1.1 - Bugfix release, fixed bad template path
