Rename the display name of the field in the Grails domain class

Question

Given the following Grails domain classes, how do I rename the display field name for isbn to "ISBN" (as opposed to the default "Isbn") and the authors to "Author (s)" (as opposed to the default "Authors")?

class Book { String name String isbn static hasMany = [ authors: Author ] } class Author { String name } 

Answer 1

You can simply use the messages.properties file for this. Go to grails-app -> i18n -> messages.properties

and define a message like:

 '<full packagePath>.<domain name>.<propertyName>.<attribute>' = <message> 

book.isbn.label = ISBN
