Maven + Grails + App Engine

Question

Has anyone used Maven, Grails, and App Engine together?

I can use Maven with Grails and Grails with App Engine, but using them in concert gives me the following error:

The command 'grails run-app' is not supported with AppEngine. Use 'grails app-engine' to start the application

Is there any way to "pass through" the Maven goal to access app-engine plugin for grails?

Answer 1

AFAIK, the Maven Grails plugin does not support the features introduced by Grails AppEngine Plugin yet. So, for now, you have to run (not sure what you mean by "pass through BTW):

grails app-engine run

Answer 2

In the command prompt, you can run:

mvn grails:exec -Dcommand="app-engine" -Dargs="run"

Which will do exactly what you want it to do.
