Getting Started with OpenShift Spatial (part 4)

Our last steps involve coding up a domain and controller class and then deploying the resulting war to OpenShift.

grails create-domain-class GeoEvent
import com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Geometry
import com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.GeometryFactory
import com.vividsolutions.jts.geom.Coordinate

class GeoEvent {

  String name
  String status 
  String type
  double lat
  double lon

  Geometry shape
  
  static constraints = {
    shape nullable: true
  }

  def beforeInsert( ) {
    if ( lat!=null && lon!=null ) {
      shape = ( new GeometryFactory( ) ).createPoint( new Coordinate( lon.value, lat.value ) )
    }
  }

}

We'll use a simple scaffold based controller...

class GeoEventController {

    static scaffold = true

}

Finally compile test and deploy to OpenShift.

grails>compile
grails>run-app
grails>prod war

In our OpenShift managed repo copy the war generated above into webapps/ROOT.war
