[Java] Interface GrailsPlugin

org.codehaus.groovy.grails.plugins.GrailsPlugin
  org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextAware

All Superinterfaces:

ApplicationContextAware

@SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
public interface GrailsPlugin
extends ApplicationContextAware

Plugin interface that adds Spring org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanDefinitions to a registry based on a GrailsApplication object. After all GrailsPlugin classes have been processed the org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanDefinitions in the registry are loaded in a Spring org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext that's the singular configuration unit of Grails applications.

It's up to implementation classes to determine where GrailsPlugin instances are loaded from.
