New plugin

[Dmitry Kurinskiy]

Hello.

(it doesn't allow me to post to dev mailing list as described in
plugins tutorial, and dev-owner also doesn't respond, so I post there)

grails.org username: alari
plugin: infra-file-storage
sources: https://github.com/alari/infra-file-storage

I'll be happy to share some infrastructure-level plugins I use everyday.

The first one solves the common task of file storaging in different
environments. Now it supports Amazon S3 storage and local storage, but
it will easily support other cloud or database storages
(just override fileStorage bean and implement interface)

Then I'd like to publish an infra-image-storage plugin, that helps
with the most widely needed image managing tasks. It wraps
Java Thumbnailator lib and has infra-file-storage dependency.

Also I have some more complex plugins I'd like to make accessible by
everyone, but I don't know if it's okay to publish more narrowed and
rarely needed plugins in the Central repository. E.g. knockout.js
models builder for Grails domains.

If it's not ok, where should I push such opensource plugins to make it
accessable to everyone?

Best regards,
Dmitry Kurinskiy

Hi Dmitry

It is so cool that you want to share your plugins. I think you should read this page on the grails website: http://grails.org/Creating+Plugins - it tells you all you need to know about publishing plugins to the shared repository.

Could you please add more to the documentation? It's not clear exactly
what the plugin does or how to use it. I only see some configuration
settings, but no sample code, or example scenarios in which you might
want to use the plugin. Try to imagine that you are a user that knows
nothing about the plugin and has only just gone to the README.

Thanks,

Peter

Thanks for response!

I've updated README, is it more clear now?

https://github.com/alari/infra-file-storage

I'll modify docs (or improve the plugin logic) if it's required. Just
tell me what can I do :)
