How to update the JHipster project after updating JHipster generator?
JHipster
now has a page on Upgrading an application.
https://jhipster.github.io/upgrading-an-application/
TL;DR
Running the upgrade sub-generator
Go into the application’s root directory:
cd myapplication/
To upgrade your application, type:
yo jhipster:upgrade
If you want to run the upgrade sub-generator even if no new JHipster version is available, type:
yo jhipster:upgrade --force
If you want to update all entities you need to run
yo jhipster --with-entities
from the root of your project
JHipster developers replied over twitter saying that yo jhipster
has to be executed at the project root folder.
Following [jhipster releases] (https://jhipster.github.io/2015/05/31/jhipster-release-2.14.2.html): 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
