"this code base is buggy and unreadable - we need more discipline in our PRs" -developer who will only work in groovy, and thinks linting, static compilation, and strong typing are the tools of the devil

groovy does an amazing job of combining all the worst parts of ruby and java into one language. it's like an art project that people confused for a serious language

Ploft-shell crab posted:are there real life groovy likers?? i suspect the main reasons to use groovy were that it had a repl and local type inference. now java 9 includes the former and java 10 will bring the latter hopefully the groovy scourge will wither and die

you just can't get your head around the idea that a system is a product of its programmers, not its tools (language)

Notorious b.s.d. posted:it's not, so don't bother spicy take considering how garbage groovy is, do you care enough to do a small effort post? im already liking maven more after coming across my first 60 line task inside a gradle build file that "helps" build helm configs - so im open to your other crazy ideas. On a side note, Java 9 REPL stuff: http://www.baeldung.com/java-9-repl

also java 10 is actually out although you could be forgiven for not noticing since it happened with very little fanfare

Samsungs SmartThings home automation product does allows users to do more advanced automation scenarios all via groovy. There's a ton of stuff out there written to handle all sorts of odd ball devices and scenarios. It will never die.

my experience with groovy with going to the groovy website and finding that half of the links were broken. also after using groovy for 10 minutes it was plainly obvious that it was terrible. now we have some jenkinsfiles written in it which i hate but whatever. it is at least better than bash.

Beamed posted:i thought this was a joke when someone first said it to me. ugh I went to a NFJS conference back in like the early 2000's when groovy and grails were a Big Deal saw a intro-to-grails presentation by a well-respected dude who had written at least two books on grails and he spent the entire goddamn 90 minutes trying to figure out why his incredibly simple grails app demo wasn't working. and that was the last time i considered using grails for anything.

groovy on grails was one of the many rails knockoff projects that completely misunderstood what was good about rails. it was sort of baffling how early rails marketing was entirely focused on how it made it so that you could bang out a functional demo app in just a few minutes and then have clear guidance on how to grow that into a real application, and yet a bunch of people came to the conclusion that actually what made rails good was all the impossible to debug magic and so they decided to replicate that and not the great getting-started experience.

which is crazy because Rails was just somebody stumbling upon what made WebObjects great and recreating it without important features (by creating “scaffolding” for a developer to modify instead of just driving the app from a set of extensible rules)

webobjects being proprietary and expensive set serverwide webdev back a decade or more. imagine a world in which you could use webobjects on lovely shared hosting rather than php4
