Tag: plugin

Thanks to the contributions of other hackers I’m announcing the 0.2 release of the Grails countries plugin. The changes:

• added languages for country and continent names:
  • af: contributed by Robert Fletcher
  • es, fr, it, pt_BR: contributed by Lucas Teixeira
• country list is now maintained outside CountryBootstrap.groovy in seperate csv files
• reworked properties file to consistently use ISO-3166 3-letter-code as key

A common requirement in many applications is to deal with countries and/or continents. The plugin’s goal is to apply the DRY principle to these requirements.

In short, the plugin offers:

• populated domain classes for countries and continents
• i18n for continent and country names (for now, only en and de locales). Currently there are 190 countries available.
• tags for simple usage of
  • localized names for countries and continents
  • select boxes: for all countries, for all continents, for all countries of a continent or for a defined set of countries. The select box contents are automatically sorted by the the localized country/continent name.

For bug reports please use http://jira.codehaus.org, project “GrailsPlugins”, component “countries”.

Update: since the initial release requires the usage of Grails 1.3.4-SNAPSHOT a bugfix release 0.1.1 has been release shortly afterwards. 0.1.1 should work with Grails >= 1.0.
