copied!<p>For reading property files in Groovy you can use the utility class <a href="http://groovy.codehaus.org/ConfigSlurper" rel="noreferrer">ConfigSlurper</a> and access the contained properties using GPath expressions. However, you have to be aware that <code>ConfigSlurper</code> doesn't support standard Java property files. Normally the <code>ConfigSlurper</code> will be used to read .groovy files that may be similar to a property file, but adhere to standard groovy notation, thus Strings are inside quotes and comments start with <code>//</code> or are inside a <code>/* */</code> block. So, to read a Java properties file you need to create a <code>java.util.Properties</code> object and use that to create a <code>ConfigSlurper</code>:</p> <pre><code>def props = new Properties() new File("message.properties").withInputStream { stream -> props.load(stream) } // accessing the property from Properties object using Groovy's map notation println "capacity.created=" + props["capacity.created"] def config = new ConfigSlurper().parse(props) // accessing the property from ConfigSlurper object using GPath expression println "capacity.created=" + config.capacity.created </code></pre> <p>If you only use the property file from within Groovy code you should use the Groovy notation variant directly. </p> <pre><code>def config = new ConfigSlurper().parse(new File("message.groovy").toURL()) </code></pre> <p>This also gives you some nice advantages over standard property files, e.g. instead of </p> <pre><code>capacity.created="x" capacity.modified="y" </code></pre> <p>you can write</p> <pre><code>capacity { created="x" modified="y" } </code></pre>
