Question

I have a controller action with complex logic to build a model, and I would like to build one during BootStrap.groovy. How can I call that controller action during bootstrap with the required params?

Answer 1

The Grails way would be to move the “complex logic” into a service which the controller calls, then call the same service method from bootstrap. You can use autowiring in BootStrap the same as in services and controllers, with

def myService

outside the init closure.
