== mapping



=== Purpose

The `mapping` static property configures how GORM maps the domain class to the database. See the section on the  link:{hibernate5GuideFromRef}index.html#ormdsl[ORM DSL] in the user guide for more information.

=== Examples


[source,groovy]
----
class Person {

    String firstName

    static hasMany = [addresses: Address]

    static mapping = {
        table 'people'
        version false
        id column: 'person_id'
        firstName column: 'First_Name'
        addresses lazy: false
    }
}
----

This example uses the  link:{hibernate5GuideFromRef}index.html#ormdsl[ORM DSL] to map the `Person` class onto a table called `people`
