What's Changed

⭐️ New Features

Modularizing the codebase

Spring Boot 4 has refactored its codebase into a more modular structure, I believe this is the right direction for the future.
The Grace framework 2024 & 2025 will also start doing this. Grace's plugins will be independent, more focused, and at the same time, they will integrate better with Spring Boot's modules.

Core plugins have been consolidated into the framework

#1157 Allow developers to customize the app directory 2ee497b

Grails employs a structured directory layout that organizes files and folders based on their functionality, which is essential for maintaining code in a large application.

The app directory is central to a Grails application, containing subdirectories for domains, services, views, controllers, taglibs and assets, which follow the MVC architectural pattern.

In the past, Grails has always adhered to the convention of using grails-app as a fixed directory since its inception. In Grace, we can use grails-app, or the more concise app.
Now, in the upcoming Grace 2024 version, we take it a step further by allowing developers to customize this directory. You are free to choose a more suitable specific directory, such as web, admin, api, or store.

#1140 Refactor GroovyCompiler ae3ef71

  • 1f64e96 Improve GroovyCompiler for better compilation of Groovy scripts #1139

  • Introduce GrailsArtefactClassTransformation
  • Remove some runtime dependencies of grace-shell
  • Add support methods in TraitInjectionUtils
  • Cleanup ExtendedGroovyClassLoader

#1136 Refactor the core API of the framework b0d5f75

This is a very important code refactoring and update for the framework.

Initially, I intended to run a Single-File Application Groovy script in the CLI, but after analyzing a lot of the framework's underlying code, I found that these core API were very difficult to extend and test, so I began a painful code refactoring journey.

After the refactoring, it has now become possible to successfully run a Single-File Application Groovy script in the CLI.

Refactoring involves several important APIs of Grails. I believe that refactoring these classes is significant for the maintenance and updating of the framework, and it is also very helpful for third-party plugin developers, making plugins and libraries easy to extend and test.
