Add a <servlet> into web.xml in Grails 2.1

Question

I want to add a node into web.xml.
I tried to use a webxml grails plugin, but look like it can't manage nodes. Any help or example will be apreciated...

Answer 1

You can use your own web.xml, with any content you want. Run

> grails install-templates

and edit /src/templates/war/web.xml file (it's a template, so don't remove existing Grails code)

See http://grails.org/doc/latest/ref/Command%20Line/install-templates.html

Answer 2

I'm not able to add comments yet, so here it goes.

By looking at your last comment, I suppose that you were looking for grails:exec:

mvn grails:exec -Dcommand=install-templates

Many Grails commands don't have the equivalent wrapper exposed directly through Maven.
