How to modify existing entity generated with jhipster?

Question

I use jhipster generator to create a projet. I\'ve generated some entity manually following the information provided in jhipster documentation :

Answer 1

1) Edit the json file representing your entity (add/remove field, the syntax is pretty easy, check in the end of the file if is required any change to the general entity properties like 'fieldsContainOneToMany'...), you'll find it in:

/.jhipster/entityName.json

2) Build the code.

3) In the root of your project run the command:

yo jhipster:entity entityName

NOTE: this command by default overwrite all your manual changes. I recommend to do a commit on a VCS repository before to run this command to eventually revert any not required change.

4) run

mvn liquibase:diff
