Easiest way is probably with Spring Boot's @ConfigurationProperties.

Put your myapp.properties in src/main/resources then create a configuration class:

@ConfigurationProperties(locations=['classpath:myapp.properties'])
class MyConfiguration {
   String name
}

Add it as a Spring bean in grails-app/resources.groovy

myConfiguration(MyConfiguration)

Auto wire it into a controller or service:

@Autowired
MyConfiguration myConfiguration

def foo() {
   render myConfiguration.name
}
