We can generate scaffold with commands:
grails easyui-generate-controller [domainClass]
grails easyui-generate-view [domainClass]
grails easyui-generate-all [domainClass]
grails easyui-install-templates
To integrate the data with the components you need to register the domain class renderer. To register this class it is necessary to change the file BootStrap.groovy as follows:
import grails.converters.JSON
import org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.GrailsApplication
import org.grails.plugins.easyui.EasyuiDomainClassMarshaller
...
class BootStrap {
GrailsApplication grailsApplication
def init = { servletContext ->
JSON.registerObjectMarshaller(new EasyuiDomainClassMarshaller(true, grailsApplication))
...
}
...
}
