Grails console<\/a> plugin is one of those which I always add to my projects. It really gives you a very handy way of debugging things and also run some quick fixes.<\/p>\n

Whenever you hit the console action you always gets a predefined message on it about the available variables, which is really good when you are a new user but in most of the cases you need to import few statements and you always need to write them before executing any command. <\/p>\n

So in my recent project I looked at the plugin code and I found a nice way to change the default statements.<\/p>\n

I added the following line in my project application filter.
\n[java]
\nconsoleImports(controller: ‘console’, action: ‘*’) {
\n before = {
\n String importStatements = """import com.intelligrape.package1.*
\n import com.intelligrape.package2.*
\n import com.intelligrape.package3.*
\n import com.intelligrape.package4.* """<\/p>\n

session[‘_grails_console_last_code_’] = session[‘_grails_console_last_code_’] ?:importStatements
\n }
\n}
\n[\/java]<\/p>\n

\nIt could be a small but great enhancement in the console plugin to just update it to provide the starting code as a configuration option
\n<\/p>\n

Hope it helps
