Grails: println only works sometimes or something - grails

I make a brand new grails project and put this in the bootstrap:
ExpandoMetaClass.enableGlobally()
Integer.metaClass.precision = {->return 1}
println 3.precision()
println "rofl"
println 15.precision()
And it does what I expect, run-app prints:
1
rofl
1
But if i take out the println "rofl" it won't print that second one. It just prints one 1 without the rofl... WTF?
Again, becasue this doesn't make any sense to me, this code:
ExpandoMetaClass.enableGlobally()
Integer.metaClass.precision = {->return 1}
println 3.precision()
//println "rofl"
println 15.precision()
prints:
1

Mikey, I can't think of a reason why. Can you try in a different environment? I just tried this quickly under Groovy Version: 1.8.0 JVM: 1.6.0_20, Win7 and Grails 2 BootStrap and a Grails Controller action and sorry to say "it works on mine". So all I can think is that its somehow related to the version you are using or how it is setup. How are you running this?

This is an ubuntu default setting and has nothing to do with JVM. The console won't repeat lines if they are the same. Will update this answer when I remember how to turn it off.

Jenkins file can we use the IF statement

in Jenkins file one of the variable is having the comma separated values like below.
infra_services=[abc,def,xyz]
when I write the below code it was throwing an error.
if ("{$Infra_Services}".contains("xyz"))
then
echo "$Infra_Services"
fi
yes you can do if statements in a Jenkinsfile. However if you are using declarative pipeline you need to brace it with the step script.
Your issue comes from the fact you did not put any double quotes around "abc" and all the elements of your array
infra_services=[abc,def,xyz]
​
A second error will raise after you fix this. If infra_services is an array, to manipulate it you should not try to cast it as string. It should throw when you do "{$Infra_Services}"
here is a working example
​def Infra_Services = ["abc","def","xyz"]
if (Infra_Services.contains("xyz")) {
println "found"
}​​
My advice is to test your groovy before running it on jenkins, you will gain precious time. Here is a good online groovy console I use to test my code. running the groovy console from terminal is an alternative

Rails Console output breaks when modifying

Totally lacking intuition here.
First i thought i only happens when copying and pasting code from editor. Unfortunately it's more common. Only thing I am doing is trying to insert more code somewhere in the middle of current input or modifying it.
Expected behavior:
Modify input without side effects.
What actually happens:
VERY OFTEN when modifying input it gets messed up.
If that happens every key press will copy and insert current input alongside with pressed character.
Vital notes:
Encoding is set to UTF-8 in terminal(s)
Issue persists on different emulators ( Terminator, gnome-terminal )
Issue persists when using different Ruby runtime console ( IRB, Pry )
Issue appears to be related to Ruby runtime, NOT Linux shell (i guess...)
Issue appears since:
Since system install. Didn't appear on my MacBook Air
System:
ArchLinux, although coworker reported same thing happens on his MacBook Pro.
How to reproduce (works for me):
Open rails console
Type example code: Shift.where(name: "som").where(name: "dom").where(name: "pom")
Navigate cursor to modify first where statement.
Change "som" to "SOM"
Should see it break
Press random key repeatedly to see it break even more.
Images:
Good input
Now i will navigate to first where statement to change "som" to uppercase "SOM"
I basically navigated my cursor and pressed SHIFT+S, SHIFT+O, SHIFT+M
Hope it's clear enough :-)
Thank you!
EDIT 1:
Tried using zsh instead of bash, didn't help
Disabled spring gem, didn't help
EDIT 2:
Folks on reddit suggested that i should check if there are any Ruby readline warnings eg. "Readline is not installed". None of them appear anywhere. Also reinstalled ruby 2.4.1, seems like it's not the problem in my case.
EDIT 3:
I cannot reproduce the issue in a different Rails project.
Issue appears on Rails 5.1.1, meanwhile 5.0.3 works flawlessly.
Is it possible that Rails itself (or rather one of its gems) can be the cause?
I had a very similar issue, and I boiled it down to my coloring.
I had the following in my IRBRC:
class String
def _colorize(color_code)
"\e[#{color_code}m#{self}\e[0m"
end
def red
_colorize(31)
end
def yellow
_colorize(33)
end
end
IRB.conf[:PROMPT][:MY_PROMPT] = {
:AUTO_INDENT => true, # enables auto-indent mode
:PROMPT_I => "[ME]".red + " > ".yellow, # normal prompt
:PROMPT_S => "[ME]".red + " ".yellow, # prompt for continuated strings
:PROMPT_C => "[ME]".red + " * ".yellow, # prompt for continuated statement
:RETURN => "[ME]".red + "=> ".yellow + "%s\n".red # format to return value
}
IRB.conf[:PROMPT_MODE] = :MY_PROMPT
And when I removed the .red and .yellow, everything was just fine.
I think it's because my coloring characters like \e[31m was getting counted as a length 5 characters instead of 0 characters.
My solution was to remove my coloring for the time being. Hopefully someone will come up with a better solution than that.

Grails auto-reloading new controller actions

I've
created new Grails 2.4.3 project
created TestController
set grails.reload.enabled = true in BuildConfig.groovy
run application with grails -reloading run-app
My controller action code:
def index() {
render "test"
}
When I change the string test to test2- I see in console (in Eclipse):
..................
|Compiling 1 source files
And after reloading page I see test2 - ok.
But when I try to add new method:
def test3() {
render "test3"
}
I see:
Why? Why there isn't even the url?
Example - action does't exist:
Interesting thing is - when I create a whole new controller the index action of the newly created controller works...
EDIT
After a while I decided to go with spring-boot and as a matter of fact - there it's not working either. I think that springloaded is the issue here because it doesn't pick up added new method in #Controller
I've asked the same question on github repo.
It seems that latest spring-loaded SNAPSHOT is working fine.
But it must be integrated into Grails - maybe in the next release unfortunately :(
Solution that works for me:
1) Versions:
IDE: Intellij IDEA 14.1.3
JDK: jdk1.7.0_25
GRAILS: 2.5.0
2) On BuildConfig.groovy:
grails.reload.enabled = true
grails.project.fork = [
test: false,
run: false,
]
3) Originally, my code was compiled on grails 2.4.4, so I upgraded to 2.5.0. I had no problems with the version change with plugins or anything. My guess is this works because it uses later versions of spring-loaded. Steps:
set-grails-version 2.5.0
clean
delete directory work (just to be sure, I don't really know if this is good practice)
compile and/or go to number 4
4) Debug Idea with this configuration: run-app -reloading
Works perfect, no forked debug, reloading enabled, no console error after reload and all breakpoints working even after code changes!
I took the liberty of reporting this issue to Grails.

Grails development enviornment page loads very slow

So I'm getting page load times in the range of 30-45 seconds.
Some history:
This was not always the case for this project. This project is in production so I haven't really touched the code in a while. I noticed it started happening the last time I was updating the code. I don't recall anything specific that I changed that should have anything to do with the problem. I have other projects that are running with the same Grails versions with no problem.
I think it started happening in 2.2.3. I am now running 2.2.4.
I am using x64 JDK 1.7.0_25, Windows 7 x64.
I'm not sure what else to put here that would be relevant. Any assistance is appreciated!
Edit: running with -noreloading has no effect.
Edit2: I've tried deleting my .grails folder entirely, running clean, and deleting my target folder and stacktrace log.
Edit3: It does seem that the amount of time it takes is dependent on the amount of data displayed/read. Small pages take 3-4 seconds. Medium pages 10-12 seconds...
Edit4: I'm running it via IntelliJ IDEA 12.1.4 x64 (idea64.exe). I've also tried it outside of IntelliJ with the same results.
Edit5: The database is Oracle enterprise that supports the entire company. It is managed by full time adminstrators. This isn't a MySQL server on my local machine.
Edit6: The application also functions normally when deployed in TEST (test war), but still is slow when ran with test run-app.
Starting to get somewhere:
I downloaded JDK 1.7.21 and ran the app with that and it started working no problem! I then ran clean which triggered a recompile and it stopped working... grr
Now with 1.7.21 still active, I tried -noreloading and it works!
Annnd... now it works even if I don't use -noreloading..........
I've gone back to 1.7.25.. ran clean, and it works. Sooooooo yeah... explain that.
And now it doesn't anymore.
This is under Linux but will maybe useful:
If you are running the code within an IDE:
ps auwx|grep java
-Dgrails.console.class=grails.build.logging.GrailsEclipseConsole -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6 -Xms40m -Xmx768m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -
As you can see the memory settings Xms and Xmx are quite low...
In your IDE there should be an INI file:
more STS.ini
1 -vm
2 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/bin/java
3 -startup
4 plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar
5 --launcher.library
6 plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.1.200.v20120913-144807
7 -product
8 org.springsource.sts.ide
9 --launcher.defaultAction
10 openFile
11 -vmargs
12 -Dgrails.console.enable.interactive=false
13 -Dgrails.console.enable.terminal=false
14 -Djline.terminal=jline.UnsupportedTerminal
15 -Dgrails.console.class=grails.build.logging.GrailsEclipseConsole
16 -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6
17 -Xms40m
18 -Xmx768m
19 -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
You can up these value and try restarting your IDE...
I would also suggest you run something like nmon before/during and monitor whilst the code is running and monitor disk/cpu/network throughputs.
You may find you are hammering your dev box which is causing the issue.
If the production is fine I really don't see what the problem is..
E2A Ahhh forgot it was under windows so no nmon for windblows but hey not that I tried it - http://sourceforge.net/projects/jnmonanalyser/
E2A again:
1. Enable DataSource.groovy debugging:
dataSource {
pooled = true
driverClassName ="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
username = "aaa"
password = "aaaa"
//SQL Logging - refer to Config.groovy at hibernate.sql now
logSql=true
...
config.groovy - this will stop your app from running if you have issues with lets say records you are trying to add in your BootStrap
// Return error when it fails
//grails.gorm.failOnError=true
Enable log4j and use this or part of it:
// log4j configuration
log4j {
appender.stdout = "org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender"
appender.'stdout.layout'="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"
appender.'stdout.layout.ConversionPattern'='[%r] %c{2} %m%n'
appender.stacktraceLog = "org.apache.log4j.FileAppender"
appender.'stacktraceLog.layout'="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"
appender.'stacktraceLog.layout.ConversionPattern'='[%r] %c{2} %m%n'
appender.'stacktraceLog.File'="stacktrace.log"
appender.'stacktraceLog.MaxFileSize'="1MB"
rootLogger="error,stdout"
logger {
grails="error"
StackTrace="error,stacktraceLog"
org {
codehaus.groovy.grails.web.servlet="error" // controllers

//hibernate = 'info,hibernate'
//apache.commons.digester.Digester = 'debug,javaclasses'
}
}
additivity.StackTrace=false
}
try and capture what it is doing, it is also worth running developer tools on your browser whether its firefox of chrome and trying to figure out on what elements it is taking that time - but between the logs and the browser developer tools should lie your answer.
Usually you can fix this by doing
grails clean
on the grails command line (I open it via CRTL+ALT+G in IntelliJ IDEA).
This erases all compiled files and will recompile your project from scratch (afaik), which usually erases errors like that. This is not a real fix for the underlying problem, but it solves the problem. Grails is highly experimental and unstable if you ask me, i have a lot of weird error that usually disappear when doing a clean. Btw i'm using 2.1.5 on Windows 7 x64, too.
Delete stacktrace file in the target folder of your project. It can
get huge. (At present mine is 48 GB).
Check if there is enough space in your C directory.
If you are hot swapping code, then page loads can get slow. So in such cases, restart the dev server (grails app).
Sometimes, requests to the server can hang, where focusing (left or right clicking on the cmd) on the command prompt seems to skip the pause. (weird)
Increasing the JVM permgen, heap spaces depending on your memory might help as well.
Try running the server using command prompt rather within an IDE.
Better use methods for actions than closures.
For a system with 3GB RAM, my environment variable setting is:
JAVA_OPTS
-Xms512m -Xmx1g
The STS.ini settings:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.100.v20110502
-product
com.springsource.sts.ide
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
384M
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xmn128m
-Xms1024m
-Xmx1024m
-Xss2m
-XX:PermSize=256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=10
-XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=50
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
-XX:+CMSIncrementalMode
-XX:+CMSIncrementalPacing
-XX:+UserParallelGC
8) Maybe the problem is with the JDK and grails versions combination. There seems to be an error with OpenJDK 1.7u25 and spring loaded. Okay, you are not using OpenJDK, but try with other version anyway. Try with JDK1.7u03.
9) Try JVM with -server flag, and see if it improves runtime performance.
grails run-app -server
So the reason why this was happening:
JDK 1.7.25

Strange variable-argument problem in Capistrano Task

Hello stackoverflow experts,
I got a very strange problem in a task I'm creating with Capistrano. I'm trying to pass a variable from the command line:
>> cap create_dir -s name_of_dir=mydir
task :create_dir do
printf("#{name_of_dir}")
if !(exists?(:name_of_dir)) then
name_of_dir = Capistrano::CLI.ui.ask("Name of dir to be created.")
end
full_path = "/home/#{name_of_dir}"
run "mkdir #{full_path}"
end
The very strange this is that correctly parses the variable when I do printf, but parses as a blank(empty) string in the following command. I really find no explanation for this and I'm sure is not a stuping typo or anything like that?
I'm not expierenced in Ruby like in Java and PHP, I'm affraid that there maybe a strange rule?
Thanks!!
A few suggestions:
Avoid using variables with the same name of internal task variables
use fetch() instead of dealing with if exits? else then...
Here's the code
>> cap create_dir -s name_of_dir=mydir
task :create_dir do
printf("#{name_of_dir}")
directory = fetch(:name_of_dir) { Capistrano::CLI.ui.ask("Name of dir to be created.") }
full_path = "/home/#{directory}"
run "mkdir #{full_path}"
end
In newer versions of capistrano, at least from 2.5.19 which I run now the whole command line argument thing works different now. You call it like this.
cap command argument=value
And the syntax in the code is
ENV.has_key?('argument') and ENV['argument']
That's basically it, but you can look at my blogpost about it for a working example
It looks like in the second line you are checking if the symbol :name_of_dir exists - not the actual value of the variable name_of_dir.
Because you're unlikely to have a filename name_of_dir it will count as not existing... and then name_of_dir (the variable) is overwritten by the Capistrano::CLI.ui.ask command.
Not sure why but that must be killing it somehow.
Try removing the ":" and seeing if that fixes the problem.
