Question

Maybe a silly question but where/how should I define default values for GORM domain class properties? For example when I’m creating a new Company object instance I want default value for property country to be “USA”. I guess I could do it in create controller but it looks kinda dirty. Something like:

def create = {
def companyInstance = new Company()
companyInstance.properties = params
companyInstance.accepted = "USA"
...


Answer 1

Put it in the domain class itself

class Company {
    String country = "USA"
}
