Here are a few ideas to integrate GPars into your projects.

Recent versions of Groovy after version 2.1 have included our GPars tools,
so you may already have GPars !

Grape

Integration using Grape is very straightforward:

Grape Setup
1
@Grab(group='org.codehaus.gpars', module='gpars', version='1.2.1')

Snapshots

Getting Snapshots (Suspended pending new provider)
1
2
@GrabResolver(name='gpars', root='http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/', m2Compatible=true)
@Grab(group='org.codehaus.gpars', module='gpars', version='1.3-SNAPSHOT')

Grape config (optional)

GPars optionally relies on a couple of third-party libraries. Most of them reside in the central maven repository, however, the Netty lib resides in the JBoss repository only.

To leverage the (prototype) remoting capabilities, you either need to use the GrabResolver annotation (since Groovy 1.7):

Grape Configuration
1
@GrabResolver(name='jboss', root='http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/')

or make sure your grapeConfig.xml file contains all the necessary maven repositories:

   <ivysettings>
     <settings defaultResolver="downloadGrapes"/>
     <resolvers>
       <chain name="downloadGrapes">
         <filesystem name="cachedGrapes">
           <ivy pattern="${user.home}/.groovy/grapes/[organisation]/[module]/ivy-[revision].xml"/>
           <artifact pattern="${user.home}/.groovy/grapes/[organisation]/[module]/[type]s/[artifact]-[revision].[ext]"/>
         </filesystem>
         <!-- todo add 'endorsed groovy extensions' resolver here -->
         <filesystem name="m2local" m2compatible="true">
           <artifact pattern="${user.home}/.m2/repository/[organisation]/[module]/[revision]/[module]-[revision].[ext]" />
         </filesystem>
         <ibiblio name="ibiblio" m2compatible="true"/>
         <ibiblio name="codehaus" root="http://repository.codehaus.org/" m2compatible="true"/>
         <ibiblio name="jboss" root="http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/" m2compatible="true"/><!-- added by me -->
         <ibiblio name="java.net2" root="http://download.java.net/maven/2/" m2compatible="true"/>
         <!-- <ibiblio name="codehaus.snapshot" root="http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/" m2compatible="true"/> --><!-- Enable for GPars snapshots -->
       </chain>
     </resolvers>
   </ivysettings>

Gradle

GPars was stored in the central maven repository at http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/codehaus/gpars/ and was also in the Codehaus maven repository at http://repository.codehaus.org/org/codehaus/gpars/gpars/.

To include GPars in your project, add either of the following repositories and also the dependency into your project:

Gradle
1
2
3
4
5
6

    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        //add repositories for optional dependencies
        maven{url 'http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/'}
    }

    dependencies {
        compile "org.codehaus.gpars:gpars:1.2.1"
    }

Snapshots

    repositories {
        maven{url 'http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/'}
        //add repositories for optional dependencies
        maven{url 'http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/'}
    }
    dependencies {
        compile "org.codehaus.gpars:gpars:1.3-SNAPSHOT"
    }

Maven

To include GPars in your project, add the following (optional) repositories and dependencies into your project:

Maven Configuration

            <url>http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.codehaus.gpars</groupId>
            <artifactId>gpars</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.1</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Sample Maven-based Java API demo project

You may also like a stand-alone maven-based Java API sample project showing how to use GPars from Java and how to integrate GPars with Maven. See our download page for that.

And the same sample project is available for the SNAPSHOT release.

    </repositories>

            <artifactId>gpars</artifactId>
            <version>1.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

Grails

Grails since 1.2

Leveraging the built-in dependency management you can instead of installing the plugins update the BuildConfig.groovy file accordingly:

Grails Setup
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        //  maven{url 'http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org'}  //enable if using *GPars* snapshots
        maven{url 'http://repository.jboss.org/maven2/'}
    }
    dependencies {
        build 'org.codehaus.gpars:gpars:1.2.1'
    }

Griffon

Using the Griffon built-in dependency management:

Griffon Configuration
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
    griffon.project.dependency.resolution = {
        inherits "global"

        default dependencies
            repositories {
                griffonHome()
                mavenCentral()
            }
            dependencies {
                runtime org.codehaus.gpars:gpars:1.2.1
            }
        }
    }

You may also consider using the plugins to enable GPars for older Griffon versions.


Dependencies

GPars itself depends on a couple of libraries from the maven central repository. Check out the GPars public pom:
