Groovy templating features

To output the result of a simple Groovy codeexpression, write your Groovy code as <%= some Groovy code %>. For example:

...

<% issuelog.getKey(debug("I was here") %>

You could also use $some Groovy code, but only for a variable and not when a method is called on a variablecan also output the value of a variable or its properties using $variable or $variable.someProperty. For example:

$currentUser() returns  returns an ApplicationUser

$currentUser.name returns the name of the ApplicationUser

However, calling methods is not supported:

$currentUser.getName() returns an errorerror

  print "Component: "+ it.name + "\n"
}
%>
