Data binding & data mapping are definitely related. Binding is transforming one source format to another. I.e. form url encoding being parsed and populating properties on a class file. It only deals with copying data from a source to a target.
I would still view them separately since data mapping goes a step further: it involves mapping to a database. It is more than just format parsing. For example, how to map the BigDecimal on a groovy object to a valid database type. Other examples include: database indexes, database constraints, how tables are created (i.e. is there a join table that the application doesn't see?), etc. datastore is a generic term for the mechanism used to implement the data mapping. i.e. hibernate, mongodb, etc. On a side note, we often see "gorm" used in the data-mapping project, but there are now nosql implementations like mongodb too. It's not really a relational mapping anymore. That's why we've changed the name to grails-data in the artifacts. This matches other project conventions such as spring-data & micronaut-data. Long term, we may want to even 'gorm' from being used and simply refer to it as 'grails-data' On Fri, Mar 21, 2025 at 12:07 PM Mattias Reichel <mattias.reic...@gmail.com> wrote: > Excuse a non-native english speaker, should these be treated the same or > differently? > databinding > datamapping > datastore > > Den fre 21 mars 2025 kl 16:38 skrev James Daugherty > <jdaughe...@jdresources.net.invalid>: > > > I've updated the pull request for the following: > > > > artifactId: grails-gradle-console -> grails-console > > artifactId: grails-gradle-model changed package from model -> gradle > > artifactId: grails-security-spring -> grails-spring-security > > artifactId: grails-rest-responder -> grails-rest-transforms > > groupId: event -> events > > groupId: view -> views > > > > This assumes a plural form to match existing grails convention in package > > names & groupids. > > > > > > On Fri, Mar 21, 2025 at 11:11 AM James Daugherty < > > jdaughe...@jdresources.net> > > wrote: > > > > > Thank you.
