JSON output of a view in Grails
Add the following to your controller:
def list = { params.max = Math.min(params.max ? params.int('max') : 10, 100) def personList = Person.list(params) withFormat { html { [personInstanceList: personList, personInstanceTotal: Person.count()] } json { render personList as JSON } }}This should support both your scaffolding and the JSON output.
You can access the scaffolding as:
http://localhost:8080/contacts/person/list
You can access the Person list as json with:
http://localhost:8080/contacts/person/list?format=json
There are other ways to do it too, but I like doing it this way to leave the scaffolding around for testing.
