Grails in Action - Glen Smith 豆瓣评分[7.50]

HIGHLIGHT Grails is getting very hot! This Groovy-based web framework offers all the ease and flexibility of Rails with the full power and support of Java via the Groovy language. DESCRIPTION For web developers used to wrestling with Java and XML, Grails is a breath of fresh air. Developers are instantly productive, picking up all the benefits of the Ruby-based Rails framework without giving up any of the power of Java. Grails in Action is a comprehensive look at Grails for Java developers. It covers the nuts and bolts of the core Grails components and is jam-packed with tutorials, techniques, and insights from the trenches. The book starts with an overview of Grails and how it can help you get your web dev mojo back. Then it walks readers through a Twitter-style social networking app--built in Grails, of course--where they implement high-interest features like mashups, AJAX/JSON, animation effects, full text search, rounded corners, and lots of visual goodness. The book also covers using Grails with existing Java technology, like Spring, Hibernate, and EJBs. KEY POINTS * High-profile authors are leaders in the Groovy/Grails community * Grails is driving adoption of Groovy in the same way Rails drove adoption of Ruby * Groovy is very easy for a Java developer to learn, which makes Grails an obvious choice for web development
