1 Introduction to the BlazeDS Plugin

The BlazeDS plugin makes it easier to build Grails-powered Rich Internet Applications using the Adobe BlazeDS remoting and messaging framework, as well as the Spring Security Core plugin to secure your application. The plugin also adds support for lazy loading to make it easier to work with GORM and Hibernate.

1.1 Getting Started

The first step is installing the plugin:

grails install-plugin blazeds

This will transtitively install the Spring Security Core, and Spring Security ACL plugins. Refer to the documentation for these plugins for configuration options. At a minimum you'll need to run the s2-quickstart script to configure Spring Security Core, e.g.

grails s2-quickstart com.yourcompany.yourapp User Role

The Spring Security ACL plugin has no required initialization steps.
