JHipster release 4.0.4

What's new​

This is the fourth patch release for JHipster 4.0.0, with 54 bug fixes and tickets closed.

There are 2 important changes to notice:

  • We now have HTTP/2 support thanks to top hipster Matt Raible. Configuration is available in the application-*.yml files, with a new JHipsterProperties entry.
  • For Angular 2+ users, we used to have a jhiHasAuthority and a jhiHasAnyAuthority directives, which basically did the same thing, so now only the jhiHasAnyAuthority directive is available.

How to upgrade​

Manual upgrades (works for JHipster 4.x applications)

For a manual upgrade, first upgrade your version of JHipster with:

yarn global upgrade generator-jhipster

If you have an existing project, it will still use the JHipster version with which it was generated. To upgrade your project, you must first delete its node_modules folder and then run:

yo jhipster

You can also update your project and all its entities by running

yo jhipster --with-entities

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

yo jhipster:entity Foo

Automatic upgrade only works for JHipster 3.x applications

For an automatic upgrade, use the JHipster upgrade sub-generator on an existing application:

yo jhipster:upgrade
