entity

This application was generated using JHipster 8.6.0, you can find documentation and help at https://www.jhipster.tech/documentation-archive/v8.6.0.

This is a "microservice" application intended to be part of a microservice architecture, please refer to the Doing microservices with JHipster page of the documentation for more information.

This application is configured for Service Discovery and Configuration with Consul. On launch, it will refuse to start if it is not able to connect to Consul at http://localhost:8500. For more information, read our documentation on Service Discovery and Configuration with Consul.

Note: gradle-local.properties added to .gitignore and must never be committed into GIT project repository.

For details about gradle script properties substitution see Readme of [Gradle Properties Plugin][].

Development

To start your application in the dev profile, simply run:

./gradlew

For further instructions on how to develop with JHipster, have a look at Using JHipster in development.

Building for production

To optimize the entity application for production, run:

./gradlew -Pprod clean bootRepackage

To ensure everything worked, run:

java -jar build/libs/*.war

Refer to Using JHipster in production for more details.

Packaging as war

To package your application as a war in order to deploy it to an application server, run:

./gradlew -Pprod -Pwar clean bootWar

Testing

To launch your application's tests, run:

./gradlew test

Other tests

Performance tests are run by [Gatling][] and written in Scala. They're located in src/test/gatling and can be run with:

./gradlew gatlingRun

For more information, refer to the Running tests page.

Using Docker to simplify development (optional)

You can use Docker to improve your JHipster development experience. A number of docker-compose configuration are available in the src/main/docker folder to launch required third party services. For example, to start a postgresql database in a docker container, run:

docker compose -f src/main/docker/postgresql.yml up -d

To stop it and remove the container, run:

docker compose -f src/main/docker/postgresql.yml down

You can also fully dockerize your application and all the services that it depends on. To achieve this, first build a docker image of your app by running:

./gradlew bootRepackage -Pprod buildDocker

Then run:

docker compose -f src/main/docker/app.yml up -d

For more information refer to Using Docker and Docker-Compose, this page also contains information on the docker-compose sub-generator (jhipster docker-compose), which is able to generate docker configurations for one or several JHipster applications.

Continuous Integration (optional)

To configure CI for your project, run the ci-cd sub-generator (jhipster ci-cd), this will let you generate configuration files for a number of Continuous Integration systems. Consult the Setting up Continuous Integration page for more information.
