With sitemesh possible to use different layout for same pages. For example for mobile and PC users
But how to do this with grails? In documentation and article nothing about this case written I have tried tag in view.gsp, not working
<meta name="layout" content="${defineLayout()}"/>
Any ideas?

You can use any dynamic expression to express the name of the layout. For example...
<meta name="layout" content="${someVariable}"/>
That expression could reference model variables, or session attributes or request parameters, etc.
See the project at https://github.com/jeffbrown/demon101dynamiclayout.
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en" class="no-js">
<head>
<title>
<g:layoutTitle default="Grails"/>
</title>
<g:layoutHead/>
</head>
<body>
<H1>This Is A Plain Ole Layout</H1>
<g:layoutBody/>
</body>
</html>
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" %>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="layout" content="${dynamicLayout ?: 'main'}">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
package demon101dynamiclayout
class DemoController {
def index() {
}
def plain() {
render view: 'index', model: [dynamicLayout: 'plain']
}
}
By grails code exploration I have found GroovyPageLayoutFinder class it has line
I can just put org.grails.layout.name attribute to request in Interceptor. It works like a charm!
