Question

My domain uses a hibernate filter like so:

class UserMapping {
    // Senseless App Logic here
    static hibernateFilters = {
        typeFilter(condition: "type = 'IDENTIFIED'", default: true)
        flagFilter(condition: "flags = 'ACTIVE'", default: true)
    }
}

They seem to apply fine when I use them in the controller however when I do the same findBy.. in my service or job, they are not applied. Any suggestions?

If it makes any difference, I invoke the findBy in a mixin.

This question seems related but its not exactly what I’m looking for:
enabling grails hibernate filters

Answer 1

The only time filters are automatically enabled is during web requests – this is due to the plugin’s HibernateFilterFilters applying all enabled filters before each web request. But there’s no global automatic filter logic – this would be impractical.

Instead use one of the approaches described in the plugin documentation, e.g.

UserMapping.withHibernateFilters {
   ..code to execute
}
