grails - URLRewriteFilter in Development Environment? -

i using urlrewritefilter forward requests domain "www" version seo. have basic rule:

<rule> <name>domain name check</name> <condition name="host" operator="notequal">www.mydomain.com</condition> <from>/.*</from> <to type="permanent-redirect">http://www.mydomain.com</to> </rule> 

this works great production, when running in development mode changes domain well, localhost:8080/mysite www.mydomain.com.

how can fix development mode? using grails , tomcat, bundled in .war gets deployed server.

thanks!

can try adding in buildconfig.groovy exclude dependency? (provided have not added jar in lib)

grails.project.dependency.resolution = {     inherits("global") {         if (environment.current != environment.production)             excludes "urlrewritefilter"     } } 

if not work in opinion safest bet fork/clone plugin (which uses latest version of urlrewritefilter:4.0.3) , modify urlrewritegrailsplugin.groovy adding below elements:

def environments = ['prod'] //or 'production' def scopes = [excludes:'run'] //if use run-app in development 

and use plugin instead of adding dependency.
