Accessing request object in src/groovy file in grails

How can we access request object in src/groovy files in grails. Is it possible?.

I don't want to pass request object from controller to src/groovy files through method parameter because it's an existing framework, is there any alternative way to do it.

I am only need request ContentType.

If getting request object is not possible in src/groovy then i am planning to put that in ThreadLocal class and get there, is this a good idea?

I don't understand your point about this being an existing framework - whether you change it to pass in the request or to access it in a more convenient way, you're still changing it, right?

There's already a ThreadLocal to hold this. Add this import

import org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextHolder

and then you can access the request as

def request = RequestContextHolder.currentRequestAttributes().request
