What’s new Permalink to "What’s new"

This is the sixth patch release for JHipster v4.5.0.

This patch release that was triggered by this comment, as the previous release had an issue for all MongoDB and Cassandra entities, which made the Angular 4 code fail to compile (if you are on 4.5.5, don’t worry and look at the comment, this is really a trivial fix).

This release also comes with some really awesome new features:

  • After months of being stuck, our Upgrade sub-generator is fixed!. Many thanks to Tien Tran who fixed this! Of course there are many use cases when upgrading, and this is still very new, so feedback is highly welcome.
  • Infinispan support for both Hibernate 2nd-level cache and Spring Cache abstraction - see #5874 - many thanks to @srinivasavasu from Red Hat! This is still in BETA and should be more tested, but you can already try it and send us your feedback.

How to upgrade Permalink to "How to upgrade"

Automatic upgrade

WARNING this has been fixed very recently, so if you have trouble with this:

  • You can still do a “manual upgrade” (see below)
  • If you find anything helpful for us, please send us comments on ticket #5883
  • If you have time and want to help, don’t hesitate to contribute on this part!

For an automatic upgrade, use the JHipster upgrade sub-generator on an existing application:

Upgrade your version of JHipster:

yarn global upgrade generator-jhipster

And then run the upgrade sub-generator:

jhipster upgrade

Manual upgrades

For a manual upgrade, first upgrade your version of JHipster with:

yarn global upgrade generator-jhipster

If you have an existing project, it will still use the JHipster version with which it was generated. To upgrade your project, you must first delete its node_modules folder and then run:

jhipster

You can also update your project and all its entities by running

jhipster --with-entities

You can also update your entities one-by-one by running again the entity sub-generator, for example if your entity is named Foo

jhipster entity Foo
