CandActBase

This is the base setup of a CandActCFTR like Grails server, capable to handle literature and chemical structures.

It contains the necessary grails modules and is set to work directly with an in memory database. You can change this in the settings to use other database systems to store the information of the datasets, e.g. MariaDB.

We use Grails mainly to define the data models to be instantiated within the DB and to create some views to have direct access to overviews without involving external tools. Mayor maintance processing, merging updloading is done with external tools like KNIME using the provided interfaces (either webinterface or direct DB-backend).
