Grails Bootstrap XmlSlurper Service no result - grails

Question

I'm new to Grails and working on my little project. What I have problem with is my XML reading Service - ReadService - has a function read() that returns XmlSlurper(). Function reads the xml file, as it's write it in console with println. But when I try to print the result XmlSlurper in Bootstrap, I don't get anything.
class BootStrap {
def ReadService
def init = {
servletContext ->
def xml = ReadService.read()
println xml
}
}
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

It looks like you just have misspelled your service.
Your ReadService must be saved in grails-app/services.
To use the service you have to declare them like this
def readService
and within init you could use them as follows:
def xml = readService.read()
As you can see, the first letter must be lowercase.

Answer 2

Okay, I see now the problem isn't with reading the xml itself, rather with bootstraping with it, as changing Service name to lovercase helped. I use ReaderService to read xml file with addresses and build address objects. Here is mine Bootstrap code:
`
class BootStrap {
def readService
def init = {
servletContext ->
def xml = readService.read()
println xml
def adress = new mobilmed.Adres(ulica:xml.adress.street, dom:xml.adress.house, miejscowość:xml.adress.residance, kodPocztowy:xml.adress.postCode, poczta:xml.adress.post).save()
if(adres.hasErrors()){
println adres.errors}
}
}
When I run it, I got classical "no such property" error.

Of course, i checked, and Boostraping for defined variables works just fine, like this:
def karolzam = new mobilmed.Adres(ulica:"Turkusowa", dom:"8/22", miejscowość:"Lublin", kodPocztowy:"20-572", poczta:"Lublin").save()
if(karolzam.hasErrors()){
println karolzam.errors}
Looks like the Bootstrap don't "seeing" variables that can print on console. :/
