In my GSP template, I am looking to provide the user with updates on the progress of a task within an overlay.
Once the user submits their data, the controller triggers a service to carry out the task. Simultaneously, another service calculates the percentage completed and sends this value to a function (shown below). Depending on the complexity of the task, the calculation service may be invoked multiple times by the main service.
def progress(progressData) {
def statusToView = progressData
[statusToView:statusToView]
}
The use of an Ajax remoteFunction call seems unfeasible as I cannot pass the 'progressData' property from the GSP template to the controller, resulting in a missing property error.
All I aim to achieve is to show the user the updated percentage value (statusToView) as it changes, and once the task is completed, the initiating function will redirect to a page notifying the user of job completion.
The template code simply displays the variable value:
${statusToView}
