services

This application was generated using JHipster 5.5.0, you can find documentation and help at https://www.jhipster.tech/documentation-archive/v5.5.0.

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.

Development

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

./mvnw

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

Doing API-First development using openapi-generator

OpenAPI-Generator is configured for this application. You can generate API code from the src/main/resources/swagger/api.yml definition file by running:

./mvnw generate-sources

Then implements the generated delegate classes with @Service classes.

To edit the api.yml definition file, you can use a tool such as Swagger-Editor. Start a local instance of the swagger-editor using docker by running: docker-compose -f src/main/docker/swagger-editor.yml up -d. The editor will then be reachable at http://localhost:7742.

Refer to Doing API-First development for more details.

Building for production

To optimize the services application for production, run:

./mvnw -Pprod clean package

To ensure everything worked, run:

java -jar target/*.war

Refer to Using JHipster in production for more details.

Testing

To launch your application's tests, run:

./mvnw clean test

Other tests

Performance tests are run by Gatling and written in Scala. They're located in src/test/gatling.

To use those tests, you must install Gatling from https://gatling.io/.

For more information, refer to the Running tests page.

Code quality

Sonar is used to analyse code quality. You can start a local Sonar server (accessible on http://localhost:9001) with:

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

Then, run a Sonar analysis:

./mvnw -Pprod clean test sonar:sonar

For more information, refer to the Code quality 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 mysql database in a docker container, run:

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

To stop it and remove the container, run:

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/mysql.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:

./mvnw package -Pprod jib:dockerBuild

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.
