How to upgrade​

Automatic upgrade

And then run the upgrade sub-generator:

jhipster upgrade

Manual upgrades

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

npm update -g 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:

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