jhipster jdl reactive-mf.jdl no longer works with jhipster v8.1

[vishalgvk]

Overview of the issue

Downloaded the updated reactive-mf.jdl file. Changed client to angular and db to mariadb. Executed jhipster jdl reactive-mf.jdl --monorepository --workspaces jhipster is generating source code for gateway and store but not for blog app.

Motivation for or Use Case

Reproduce the error

Step 1: Download reactive-mf.jdl Step 2: Changed following values:

• clientFramework: angular
• databaseType: sql
• devDatabaseType: mariadb
• prodDatabaseType: mariadb

Sample:

application {
  config {
    baseName gateway
    reactive true
    packageName com.myapp.gateway
    applicationType gateway
    authenticationType jwt
    buildTool maven
    clientFramework angular
    databaseType sql
    devDatabaseType mariadb
    prodDatabaseType mariadb
    serverPort 8080
    serviceDiscoveryType consul
    testFrameworks [cypress]
    microfrontends [blog, store]
  }
}

application {
  config {
    baseName blog
    reactive true
    packageName com.myapp.blog
    applicationType microservice
    authenticationType jwt
    buildTool maven
    clientFramework angular
    databaseType sql
    devDatabaseType mariadb
    prodDatabaseType mariadb
    enableHibernateCache false
    serverPort 8081
    serviceDiscoveryType consul
    testFrameworks [cypress]
  }
  entities Blog, Post, Tag
}

application {
  config {
    baseName store
    reactive true
    packageName com.myapp.store
    applicationType microservice
    authenticationType jwt
    buildTool maven
    clientFramework angular
    databaseType sql
    devDatabaseType mariadb
    prodDatabaseType mariadb
    enableHibernateCache false
    serverPort 8082
    serviceDiscoveryType consul
    testFrameworks [cypress]
  }
  entities Product
}

Step 3: Execute jhipster jdl reactive-mf.jdl --monorepository --workspaces

Results in:

Samples for main branch are compatible with jhipster v7. You should use the default branch which is the v8 branch for jhipster v8.

Hi @mshima As you mentioned, I tried with reactive-mf.jdl from v8 branch instead of main. Still the same issue persists for me. Blog code isn't being generated as User entity couldn't be found (in spite of having builtInEntity in the .jdl file)

I've just tried and it worked:

% npx generator-jhipster@8.1.0 jdl reactive-ms --skip-install --monorepository --workspaces

Hi @mshima Thanks for your reply I tried the command shared by you: npx generator-jhipster@8.1.0 jdl reactive-ms --skip-install --monorepository --workspaces

I found that using authenticationType as oauth2 instead of jwt (in my case) resolved the issue. So currently, jhipster isn't supporting builtInEntity when we use jwt.

[mshima]

Relationship with User in microservice applications is only supported by oauth2. I don’t think we should support this with jwt and oauth2 implementation should be reimplemented using another technology https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster/issues/18755#issuecomment-1140315937.
