JHipster release 2.6.0

JHipster gives you Spring Boot + AngularJS working together in one handy Yeoman generator.

Documentation​

Looking for the (old) JHipster v2.x documentation? It's Here!

What's new​

The big news is that we added validation support in JHipster!

By validation, we mean we have new options when generating an entity, that allows to configure validation for:

  • HTML views, using the AngularJS validation mechanism
  • Java domain objects, using Bean Validation
  • Spring MVC REST controllers
  • Hibernate (well, that's automatic, we didn't do anything on this one!)

Also noteworthy is that database columns are correctly generated, depending on the validation options (for a required field, its column is marked non-nullable, for example).

More information is available in our entity sub-generator documentation.

And as always, you can check all the closed tickets here.

How to upgrade​

Update your version of JHipster with:

npm update -g generator-jhipster

And then you can update your project when you run again

yo jhipster

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

yo jhipster:entity Foo
