Starting from Grails 1.2.x, Ivy has been chosen as the default dependency resolution mechanism for libraries; however, the official user guide doesn't explain very well how to configure a custom repository.
The BuildConfig.groovy
Following the guide, the BuildConfig.groovy is the place where both dependencies and resolvers are configured. It is placed on [app-name]/grails-app/conf of every grails application.
We need to configure Grails to use the our custom repository by adding an appropriate dependency resolver; note that you can add as many as you want simply by configuring them and then calling the resolver method, like the following example:
That's all! Now you can declare your dependencies on the dependencies closure.

ReplyDeleteIf I just paste what you have into my BuildConfig.groovy I get the error:

I'm using Grails 1.3.4
Brian wondering if you figured out that problem? I am seeing the exact same thing on grails 1.3.7
