JHipster release 2.19.0

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

What’s new

This is a big summer release, with a lot of bug fixes and new features.

The biggest news is that we now have an official “board of developers”. Many thanks to all of the team, who made this release possible while Julien Dubois was on holidays! The team page is available for more information on this subject.

The new notification feature is still a bit young, but is going to help a lot of people: you now have “alerts” that alarm you when a user action is done in the entities (like creating, editing or deleting). They are also useful when an error happens during that action.

We have new data types for the entity sub-generator, for float and double.

We also have a new AWS sub-generator, with more people being ready to help us test Amazon Beanstalk, which is really cool.

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
