The plugrepo grails application is a very nice looking and if I'd known about it I wouldn't have spent the effort building my own.
What started this is a command line Groovy script I had hooked to a cron job on our Ubuntu Linux Apache server to create a mirror. I'll go ahead and post this here in case someone would rather have a flat Apache served archive... otherwise take a look at plugrepo.
To use the archive setup your grails app with this additional configuration file:
// grails-app/conf/BuildConfig.groovy
grails.plugin.repos.discovery.myRepository="http://myhost.test.com/grails/"
The following groovy script is meant to be run on the Ubuntu command line and
populate the /var/www/grails directory as if it were a grails plugin repository.
#!/usr/bin/env groovy
import groovy.xml.MarkupBuilder
/**
* Shawn Hartsock
*
* This is a quick and dirty Groovy CLI script for creating Grails plugin
* repository mirrors.
