Product Description:
Web frameworks are playing a major role in the creation of today's most compelling web applications, because they automate many of the tedious tasks, allowing developers to instead focus on providing users with creative and powerful features. Java developers have been particularly fortunate in this area, having been able to take advantage of Grails, an open source framework that supercharges productivity when building Java–driven web sites. Grails is based on Groovy, which is a very popular and growing dynamic scripting language for Java developers and was inspired by Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk.
Beginning Groovy and Grails is the first introductory book on the Groovy language and its primary web framework, Grails.
This book gets you started with Groovy and Grails and culminates in the example and possible application of some real–world projects. You follow along with the development of each project, implementing and running each application while learning new features along the way.
What you’ll learn - Understand the fundamentals of the open source, dynamic Groovy scripting language and the Grails web framework.
- Capitalize upon Grails’ well–defined framework architecture to build web applications faster than ever before.
- Improve your web application with cutting–edge interface enhancements using Ajax.
- Use Grails’ object–relational mapping solution, GORM, to manage your data store more effectively than ever before.
- Take advantage of Groovy to create reporting services, implement batch processing, and create alternative client interfaces.
- Deploy and upgrade your Grails–driven applications with expertise and ease.
- Discover an alternative client in Groovy as well.
Who is this book for?
Java and web developers looking to learn and embrace the power and flexibility offered by the Grails framework and Groovy scripting language

This is a well-organized and comprehensive introduction to Grails. The reader will come away with a lot of exposure to the Grails way of doing things, which was kind of a shock for a hack like me who is used to mixing sql queries with html and changing entire schemas at a whim. The authors do not assume you know MVC or even Groovy, so I think it would be a good book for anyone with a bit of Java coding under their belt.
The source code presents some difficulties, although some of these ... Read More

This book is an excellent way to get started with grails development. This book provides a solid foundation and excellent coverage of the grails framework.
The book starts out with a 3 chapter overview of the groovy language. After that starts the Grails Sections, Which are very fluid working though one application (Collab-todo) from start to finish. Showing you how to use features such as plugins, ajax frameworks, security and web services. This book will really get you going with grails fast.

As a Java developer who is a true beginner with Groovy and Grails, I found Beginning Groovy and Grails an excellent starting point. The book's strength is providing a core structure for the Groovy language and the Grails framework, then building on them.
I had read other Groovy books, and still use them as a reference. But BGG kept Groovy at the right level for me to start -- showing the core features without getting bogged down in the details. I was able to work through the examples ... Read More

I concur with the previous reviews. I've been looking to dive deeper into Groovy and Grails for a while now. I'm hoping this is the first of many new titles to come on this subject. I would really like to see the language and the framework take off as it should. There are many people out there doing cool things with both like Graeme Rocher, Guillaume LaForge, and one of the above reviewers (Scott Davis....you gotta see this guy talk about Groovy if you can!). People who work in the Java space really ... Read More

Let me start by saying "Beginning Groovy and Grails" is the book that the Grails community has been clamoring for. Two very good books kicked off the Grails revolution ("Definitive Guide to Grails" and "Getting Started with Grails"), but both predate the 1.x version of Grails by many dot-versions and many years (as of the time of this review, August 2008). BGG will certainly have worthy competition on the bookshelf before long, but right now it is the book that we all have been waiting for. Luckily, it easily ... Read More
