Description

JHipster is a development platform to quickly generate, develop & deploy modern web applications & microservice architectures.

JHipster Lite will help you to start your project by generating step by step only what you need.

  • The generated code uses Hexagonal Architecture
  • The technical code is separated from your business code
  • You will only generate the code you want, no additional unused code
  • The best quality as possible: 💯% coverage, 0 code smell, no duplication 😎

This is a sample application created with JHipster Lite.

Quick Start

You need to clone this project and go into the folder:

git clone https://github.com/jhipster/jhipster-lite
cd jhipster-lite

Run the project:

./mvnw

Then, you can navigate to http://localhost:7471 in your browser.

Choosing

The original JHipster and JHLite are not the same thing, they are not generating the same code and not serving the same purpose! Here are some choice elements you can take into account:

Choosing JHipster

Prerequisites

Java

You need to have Java 21:

Node.js and NPM

  • Node.js: we use Node to run a development web server and build the project. Depending on your system, you can install Node either from source or as a pre-packaged bundle.

After installing Node, you should be able to run the following command to install development tools.

npm ci

You will only need to run this command when dependencies change in package.json.

npm install

Test the project

To launch tests:

./mvnw clean test

To launch tests and integration tests:

./mvnw clean verify

GraalVM Native Support

This project has been configured to let you generate either a lightweight container or a native executable. It is also possible to run your tests in a native image. Lightweight Container with Cloud Native Buildpacks

If you're already familiar with Spring Boot container images support, this is the easiest way to get started. Docker should be installed and configured on your machine prior to creating the image.

To create the image, run the following goal:

./mvnw spring-boot:build-image -Pnative

Then, you can run the app like any other container:

docker run -p 7471:7471 --rm docker.io/library/jhlite:<VERSION>

Executable with Native Build Tools

Use this option if you want to explore more options such as running your tests in a native image. The GraalVM native-image compiler should be installed and configured on your machine.

NOTE: GraalVM 22.3+ is required.

To create the executable, run the following goal:

./mvnw native:compile -Pnative -DskipTests

Then, you can run the app as follows:

./target/jhlite

You can also run your existing tests suite in a native image. This is an efficient way to validate the compatibility of your application.

To run your existing tests in a native image, run the following goal:

./mvnw test -PnativeTest

Lint

We use multiple linters check and lint your code:

To check:

npm run lint:ci

To lint and fix all code:

npm run lint

Sonar Analysis

To launch local Sonar Analysis:

docker compose -f src/main/docker/sonar.yml up -d

Then:

./mvnw clean verify sonar:sonar

So you can check the result at http://localhost:9001

Run the project

You can run the project using Maven, as spring-boot:run is the default target:

./mvnw

Or, first, you can package as jar:

./mvnw package

Then, run:

java -jar target/*.jar

So you can navigate to http://localhost:7471 in your browser.

These following profiles are available, and you can use it to only display the frameworks you want:

  • angular
  • react
  • vue

For example, you can run:

./mvnw -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=vue

or

java -jar target/*.jar --spring.profiles.active=vue

Docker/Podman Quickstart

To start a local instance of JHipster Lite, go to your desired application folder and run:

docker run --rm --pull=always -p 7471:7471 -v $(pwd):/tmp/jhlite:Z -it jhipster/jhipster-lite:latest

Or with podman:

podman run --rm --pull=always -p 7471:7471 -v $(pwd):/tmp/jhlite:Z -u root -it jhipster/jhipster-lite:latest

Then, go to http://localhost:7471

e2e tests

You need to run the project first. Then, you can run the end-to-end tests:

npm run e2e

Or in headless mode:

npm run e2e:headless

Generate your project

Once started, go to http://localhost:7471, select your option and generate the code you want, step by step, and only what you need.
