custom redis-gorm plugin config has conflict with base redis config

[tednaleid]

The redis-gorm plugin was modified to rely on the redis plugin for much of it's work. They still use separate datasources though, and the redis-gorm plugin needs to be refactored to have it's plugin config renamed so that it matches the plugin name.

Currently, with the released redis-gorm plugin code, if you make an application and install the redis-gorm plugin. Then if you create a test that exercises redis:

package com.example

import grails.test.*

class RedisIntegrationTests extends GroovyTestCase {

    def redisService

    void testSomething() {
        redisService.foo = "bar"
        assert "bar" == redisService.foo
    }
}

You'll see that it blows up if you try to use a config like this:

grails.redis.host="locahost"
grails.redis.port=6379
grails.redis.pooled=true
grails.redis.resources=15
grails.redis.timeout=5000

You'll get a stacktrace like this:

I think that there might be a bigger bug with the way the redis-gorm plugin is pulling in

At the very least, the RedisSpringConfigurer should probably be refactored to it's own configuration space with something like this:

diff --git a/grails-datastore-gorm-redis/src/main/groovy/org/grails/datastore/gorm/redi
index 9d79edd..64160f6 100644

@@ -29,7 +29,7 @@ class RedisSpringConfigurer extends SpringConfigurer{
     @Override
     Closure getSpringCustomizer() {
         return {
-            def redisConfig = application.config?.grails?.redis
+            def redisConfig = application.config?.grails?.redis-gorm

             redisDatastoreMappingContext(RedisMappingContextFactoryBean) {
                 grailsApplication = ref('grailsApplication')

(thanks to Christian Oestreich for the bug report and details)

Longer term, the redis-gorm plugin should be refactored to rely on the same datasource as the redis plugin has.

Confirm - I'm experiencing the same issue.

I've also have this issue. Is there any progress with this bug? Thanks.

[fletchgqc]

Cazacugmihai - please watch and vote on it at http://jira.grails.org/browse/GPREDIS-14 as we've been informed that this is where issues are tracked for this project, not on github.

[jetztgradnet]

I also have this problem. Is there a workaround without patching either of the plugins?
