Installation

To install the blueprint, run below command:

npm install -g generator-jhipster-svelte

To update the blueprint, run below command:

npm update -g generator-jhipster-svelte

Usage

  • JHipster Svelte blueprint exposes a cli to use the correct version of JHipster. Run the below command to generate new applications (interactive approach):

    jsvelte
  • Alternatively, you can also use the application JDL to generate new applications (config approach). Refer to JDL application documentation for all supported options.

    Create a new application JDL like below and save it in a file (app.jdl in this example):

    application {
        config {
            baseName SampleBlogApp,
            applicationType monolith,
            authenticationType session,
            packageName tech.jhipster.samples.blog,
            devDatabaseType h2Disk,
            prodDatabaseType postgresql,
            cacheProvider caffeine,
            buildTool maven
        }
        entities *
    }
    
    entity Blog {
        name String required minlength(3)
        handle String required minlength(2)
    }
    
    entity Post {
        title String required
        content TextBlob required
        date Instant required
    }
    
    entity Tag {
        name String required minlength(3)
    }
    
    relationship ManyToOne {
        Blog{user(login)} to User with builtInEntity
        Post{blog(name)} to Blog
    }
    
    relationship ManyToMany {
        Post{tag(name)} to Tag{entry}
    }
    
    paginate Tag with pagination
    

    Or, To generate a micro-services architecture application, use JDL like below and save it in a file (app.jdl in this example):

    application {
      config {
        baseName gateway
        packageName tech.jhipster.samples.gateway
        applicationType gateway
        authenticationType oauth2
        devDatabaseType h2Disk,
        prodDatabaseType postgresql
        serviceDiscoveryType eureka
        testFrameworks [cypress]
        reactive true
      }
      entities Blog, Post, Tag
    }
    
    application {
      config {
        baseName blog
        packageName tech.jhipster.samples.blog
        applicationType microservice
        authenticationType oauth2
        prodDatabaseType mysql
        serverPort 8081
        serviceDiscoveryType eureka
      }
      entities Blog, Post, Tag
    }
    
    entity Blog {
      name String required minlength(3)
      handle String required minlength(2)
    }
    
    entity Post {
      title String required
      content TextBlob required
      date Instant required
    }
    
    entity Tag {
      name String required minlength(2)
    }
    
    relationship ManyToOne {
      Blog{user(login)} to User with builtInEntity
      Post{blog(name)} to Blog
    }
    
    relationship ManyToMany {
      Post{tag(name)} to Tag{post}
    }
    
    paginate Post, Tag with pagination
    
    microservice Blog, Post, Tag with blog
    
    deployment {
      deploymentType docker-compose
      serviceDiscoveryType eureka
      appsFolders [gateway, blog]
    }
    

    Refer to JDL entity fields documentation for all supported entity data types and constraints. Refer to JDL relationships documentation for supported relationships and syntax. Refer JHipster micro-services documentation for all supported components.

    Pass import-jdl option along the file path to jsvelte cli to generate new application:

    jsvelte import-jdl app.jdl

    To generate Swagger UI, pass --swagger-ui option:

  •   jsvelte import-jdl app.jdl --swagger-ui
  • If you have already setup JHipster on your workstation, then, run the below command (it overrides to use the global JHipster version). Be cautious to use compatible JHipster Svelte and JHipster versions.

    jhipster --blueprints svelte

Docker development

JHipster Svelte docker images are available at DockerHub

To develop against the latest published release, follow below steps:

  • Pull the JHipster Svelte docker image:
docker pull jhipster/jhipster-svelte

In case, you want to try out the latest code (unpublished), then, pull the image with main tag as:

docker pull jhipster/jhipster-svelte:main
  • Create a new directory for your application and run the below command to generate the application:
mkdir svelte-app && cd svelte-app

docker run -it --rm -v $PWD:/app jhipster/jhipster-svelte
  • You can also run the generated application from within the container. Following examples consider maven as the build tool:

    • To run unit test cases, use the command:
    docker run -it --rm -v $PWD:/app -v ~/.m2:/home/jsvelte/.m2 --entrypoint ./mvnw jhipster/jhipster-svelte clean test
    • To start the application using the default dev profile, use the command:
    docker run -it --rm -v $PWD:/app -v ~/.m2:/home/jsvelte/.m2 -p 8080:8080 --entrypoint ./mvnw jhipster/jhipster-svelte -DskipTests

    Access application with http://localhost:8080/

  • If you would like to access the container file system, you can also attach a bourne shell:

docker run -it --rm -v $PWD:/app -v ~/.m2:/home/jsvelte/.m2 --entrypoint sh jhipster/jhipster-svelte

🛠️ Local Development

Pull requests are encouraged and always welcome.

To setup your development environment, follow below steps:

  1. Link svelte blueprint globally:
cd generator-jhipster-svelte
npm link
  1. Link a development version of JHipster to your blueprint (optional: required only if you want to use a non-released JHipster version, like the main branch or your own custom fork)
cd generator-jhipster
npm link

cd generator-jhipster-svelte
npm link generator-jhipster
  1. Create a new directory for your application and link JHipster and svelte blueprint.
mkdir my-app && cd my-app
