This is a "fork" of the original question on SO.
I quickly scanned the Configuration of the Grails documentation, without finding any clues on how to override/set where the entity classes are located
I have a multimodule gradle build, using spring-boot and standalone GORM.
The domain entities are located in a separate submodule, so that
these domain objects and gorm can be used across several spring-boot
(and non-spring-boot) applications.
Structure
build.gradle
- module1-with-springboot-jersey (depending on module 3)
-- src/main/groovy/geit/api/Application.groovy
- module2-with-springboot-groovytemplate (depending on module 3)
- module3-standalone-gorm-with-entities
-- src/main/groovy/geit/domain/../Animal.groovy
- module4-apache-camel-app (depending on module 3)
When running gradle bootRun in module1, the jersey app, it starts the
application, however when trying to access a rest resource returning an
Animal, it fails with a stacktrace:
2014-11-03 13:16:03.679 ERROR 44316 --- [nio-8080-exec-1] o.a.c.c.C.[.[.[/api].[jerseyServlet] : Servlet.service() for servlet [jerseyServlet] in context with path [/api] threw exception [java.lang.IllegalStateException: Method on class [geit.domain.entity.experimental.reku.Animal] was used outside of a Grails application.

So I read up on the Spring boot documentation, and find this
http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current-SNAPSHOT/reference/htmlsingle/#howto-separate-entity-definitions-from-spring-configuration
Hmm.. @EntityScan looks promising
So I annotate my Application class, like this
@ComponentScan
@EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude = GroovyTemplateAutoConfiguration.class)
@EntityScan(basePackageClasses=Animal)
class ApiApplication {
static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run ApiApplication, args
}
}
But now, the gradle bootRun fails at startup
2014-11-03 13:20:43.790 INFO 44376 --- [ main] utoConfigurationReportLoggingInitializer :

:api:bootRun FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
I've also tried with
@EntityScan(basePackages = "geit.domain") to trigger scanning from a
package higher in the hierarchy, but this gives the same error
But, if I move the domain/entity classes into the (jersey)
application module, then it works. This however, prevents me from using
gorm in more than one application.
Which is something we need to achieve, so that module 1,2 and 4 above
can use the standalone gorm module
Is this a missing feature or bug?
:)
PS.
When moving the Application class to the top-level package, then it works ok!
That is, from package /geit/api/Application.groovy to /geit/Application.groovy
All submodules have the same toplevel package name, so maybe that is why it works?
It still puzzles my though
