As well as hooks into the normal Maven lifecyle like compile, package and test for Grails applications.

Configuration

The maven grails plugin now supports any grails version. You can specify the grails version to use by setting the grailsVersion property in the section of the maven grails plugin:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.grails</groupId>
    <artifactId>grails-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.4.3</version>
    <configuration>
        <grailsVersion>2.3.10</grailsVersion>
        <!-- In the 2.4.3 release of grails-maven-plugin, you need to explicitly set the grailsVersion -->
        <!-- otherwise 2.4.2 will be used -->
        <!--<grailsVersion>2.4.3</grailsVersion>-->
    </configuration>
</plugin>
