description
This script is still in early stages and updates often - I recommend cloning the github repo and submitting issues/code there if you find problems or think of good features.

Github repo: https://github.com/hoffoo/vim-grails-console

Simple plugin that uses ConqueTerm to run tests, interact with the shell, and use the grails console inside vim. Requires ConqueTerm http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2771

You can either run the entire test file or the test function under your cursor.

" Start the grails shell
:StartGrailsConque

" Run the current file as a Grails test
:GrailsRunTestFile

" Run the Test under the cursor
:GrailsRunCurrentTest

" You can also run a test by name
:GrailsRunTest TestName

" Rerun the last test
:GrailsReRun
" Settings:

" NOTE: all the keymappings apply only to the _grails_ buffer so not to conflict
" with the rest of your setup

" set this to open the shell buffer across the bottom in a split
let g:GrailsShellStartSplit = 1

" remap an insert mode key to switch back to previous buffer
let g:GrailsShellReturnKey = "<C-w><C-w>"

" if this is set insert mode backspace will be remapped to <C-w> to delete
" whole word backwards
let g:GrailsShellRemapBS = 1

" command that will be passed the tests url when running :GrailsTestsBrowser
let g:GrailsTestsBrowser = "chromium --app=file://"

" You can override the path to the grails executable using:
" default is grails
let g:GrailsShellExecutable = "/opt/grails/bin/grails"


" Recommended Conque settings
let g:ConqueTerm_ReadUnfocused = 1 " run while not the selected window
let g:ConqueTerm_CloseOnEnd = 1 " quit grails when done
You can open a browser frame to show the html output of your tests:

" this is the executable that will be ran when opening the test result pages
" open in chromium/google-chrome frame with no tabs
let g:GrailsTestsBrowser = 'chromium --app=file://'
let g:GrailsTestsBrowser = 'firefox ' " NOTE: notice the space

" open with regular tab
let g:GrailsTestsBrowser = '/usr/bin/google-chrome '

" and then to open the browser with
:GrailsTestsBrowser

=== Console ===
Provided you have the grails-console plugin you can run scripts directly to the grails app from vim. To do this either copy, or link the RunConsole.groovy file to the scripts directory within your grails project.

:GrailsRunConsole <filename>.groovy " send the file to groovy console

" Note that by default :GrailsReRun will only rerun tests - to enable
" rerun of console set the option

let g:GrailsReRunConsole = 1

The default behaviour is to enter insert mode after switching back to the grails buffer so Conque will update. This way it does not override the g:ConqueTerm_InsertOnEnter. You can disable this with g:GrailsShellInsertOnEnter.

TODO:
- Search upwards if we are in a sub directory of a grails project
- Regex upwards to find the test function name, rather than passing it with the cursor
