Grails Client Side Validation

Question

How do you (if you) manage client-side validation with grails? Do you use a plugin or mirror your limitations using the javascript framework? Greetings

Answer 1

I have not used them personally, but these two plugins could help you:

http://grails.org/plugin/javascript-validator

http://www.grails.org/plugin/remote-constraints

Answer 2

In the Grails projects I participated in, we did not use a plugin, but rather a mashup of javascript plugins and custom validators (jQuery, Prototype, Dojo plugins, etc.) to reach the client side of Validation. It is convenient for instant field level verification on the client.

According to leebutts, the source of these plugins is open. Why not consider expanding one (or both) of these plugins to achieve what you need and contribute to the community?

Maybe you should check out the new plugin. With it, Constraints becomes an artifact of Grails and can facilitate this work.
