What Happened To Mysore Mallige Couple

IDEs for programming in Groovy

The Groovy previous post was a short introduction to this modern and powerful programming language. But what is needed to develop applications in Groovy?


* mandatory requirement is to have installed JVM .

first thing to do is download the Groovy Develpment Kit (GDK) . After the installation is simply to decompress the GDK on the route you want and create an environment variable in linux GROOVY_HOME or add the path to the directory / bin groovy in the PATH environment variable in windows.
For more detailed information visit the tutorial groovy on their official website.

Once the above is all set to begin programming in Groovy, as this provides an interpreter called GroovyConsole IDE, where you can encode and run in a moment (to run the Groovy console, just run the command groovyConsole or groovyConsole.bat).


(groovyConsole in action)

The Groovy community has also developed a plugin for eclipse called Groovy-Eclipse, which allows you to easily develop and build projects in Groovy (the link will find a section ' How to Install "with the steps for installation).

And last but not least, the Groovy community in conjunction with Spring Source has developed a complete Eclipse platform, which allows you to easily create projects in Groovy, Grails , AspectJ , etc. The project is called 'Grails - STS Integration' and you can download from HERE .

The following entries will be with Groovy code samples (from simple to complex) to reach the level required to develop using Grails.
