Magnolia 5.4 reached end of life on November 15, 2018. This branch is no longer supported, see End-of-life policy.
The Groovy module version compatible with Magnolia 5 starts from 2.0. The following documentation refers particularly to version 2.2 (released alongside Magnolia 5.2) and greater. Prior to version 2.2 the UI was a legacy app, wrapping the old interface. If you are using a version of the Groovy module before 2.2, you can still refer to the old documentation.
Also, please be aware that the bundled Groovy language version has been updated to the latest stable available at the moment of developing version 2.2 of the module, i.e. Groovy 2.1.8
The Groovy app is installed by the Groovy module that adds Groovy capabilities to Magnolia. The app is accessible in Dev > Groovy. For more information about using the app see the Groovy module documentation.
Configuration
The Groovy app is installed by the Groovy module. The app is based on the content app framework and is a good example of extending the framework. The configuration of the browser and detail subapps are typical of any content app. The console supapp uses a custom subapp class, GroovyConsoleSubApp . Permission to access the app is limited to users assigned the scripter role. In addition, the Dev app group that this app belongs to is only available to the superuser role. This is configured in the app launcher layout. The app is configured at /modules/groovy/apps/groovy.
