Usage

Profile Repositories

By default Grails will resolve profiles from the Grails central repository. However, you can override what repositories will be searched by specifying repositories in the USER_HOME/.grails/settings.groovy file.

If you want profiles to be resolved with a custom repository in addition to the Grails central repository, you must specify Grails central in the file as well:

grails {
    profiles {
        'web-bootstrap' {
            groupId = "org.rainboyan.profiles"
            version = "5.0.0"
        }
        repositories {
            mavenCentral {
                url = "https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/"
                snapshotsEnabled = false
            }
            grailsCentral {
                url = "https://repo.grails.org/grails/core"
                snapshotsEnabled = true
            }
        }
    }
}
