• Installing JHipster

Running local Blueprint version for development

During development of blueprint, please note the below steps. They are very important.

1. Link your blueprint globally

Note: If you do not want to link the blueprint(step 3) to each project being created, use NPM instead of Yarn as yeoman doesn't seem to fetch globally linked Yarn modules. On the other hand, this means you have to use NPM in all the below steps as well.

cd search-filter
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 master branch or your own custom fork)

You could also use Yarn for this if you prefer

cd generator-jhipster
npm link
 
cd search-filter
npm link generator-jhipster

1. Create a new folder for the app to be generated and link JHipster and your blueprint there

mkdir my-app && cd my-app
 
npm link generator-jhipster-search-filter
npm link generator-jhipster (Optional: Needed only if you are using a non-released JHipster version)
 
jhipster -d --blueprint search-filter
