Grails on Google-App-Engine - Is it dead? [closed]

Answer 1

I tried Grails with Google App Engine long time ago. As in previous answers was stated - there is no current version of the plugin. However if this is an option for you to consider, try CloudFoundry service. It's fully compatible with Grails.

Answer 2

Update 2017 : There is a new tutorial for Grails 3.2.9

Answer 3

Consider the Play Framework a light weight framework for Web Applications.

Answer 4

The App Engine plugin for Grails has not been updated for 2.X. The announcement from Graem Rocher can be found here

Grails currently throws a error when you attempt to run-app against 2.1.1. An issue concerning this has been raised here

Answer 5

I tried out Grails on App Engine using the plugin mentioned above. I wrote a series of blog postings about it. I don't think the Grails App Engine plugin is actively maintained anymore.

I personally switched to Gaelyk which is a lightweight web toolkit for App Engine written in Groovy. It should fulfill all your requirements.
