Generator-jhipster: import-jdl sub generator does not work for all the options as per document

[c0nscience]

Overview of the issue

The JDL documentation mention keywords like 'microservice' and 'skipClient'. The JDL Studio it self does not recognise them neither does the 'import-jdl' subgenerator.

Motivation for or Use Case

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea behind JDL is that I can generate the domain and basic ui with it. Or am I using it wrong?

JHipster Version(s)

I'm using the current jhipster version 3.1.0

@MathieuAA as discussed earlier Im still waiting for a new JHUML release or JDL update so that I can update the import-jdl generator to work with latest JDL

[deepu105]

Lets keep this ticket open so that we can track that

[MathieuAA]

Hi, if the sub-gen doesn't support that, that may be because the sub-gen doesn't use the JDL project?
See here.
It's normal it's still not released in JUML as I don't have time to work as much as I'd want to.

[jdubois]

Yes that's not surprising that JHipster UML needs some time to have all the features of JHipster

[deepu105]

To be quite frank Im kind of fed up explaining this @MathieuAA we had this discussed in few other issues and in the mailing list.
So to be frank I really dont like having JHUML as a dependency to JDL. I would rather prefer to have JDL as a standalone lib with all its required features like parsing the JDL, creating the entity jsons etc. either by duplicating the required code from JHUML or by making JDL a dependency for JHUML.
Also I dont like having the import-jdl feature in JHipster and JHUML as it confuses the user a lot and messes up the documentation. currently the documentation has stuff that only works with JHUML and does not work with import-jdl sub generator so its very confusing for the user. I would like each project to do only what its meant to do.

@jdubois @MathieuAA we need to take a decision on this to avoid lot of such discrepancy and issue in the future.

Hi everyone.

Some news about this?

I created a JDL file, I have begotten the entities from this file at my microservices. I went to my gateway app and I passed the path to my microservice but I got an error too.

[deepu105]

we are working on it.

Thanks & Regards,
Deepu

[tibistibi]

except does jet not work too

[deepu105]

This sub generator needs a major revamp based on the latest https://github.com/jhipster/jhipster-domain-language and will be done soon. Till then i'll recommend everyone to use jhipster-uml to import JDL using command jhipster-uml yourFile.jdl

[chrislovecnm]

Guys, why does the documentation reflect that this functionality is live?

As of JHipster v3, microservices can be created

Please update the docs ;(

[jdubois]

I've updated the documentation, so that should be OK. @MathieuAA is also working on updating the sub-generator to have everything working back again.

[deepu105]

@jdubois i would prefer to keep this ticket open as we havent resolved it.
It will be solved only when we release jhipster-core and update the sub gen
to use that. If we wanted to use jhipster-uml directly then there is no
purpose of jhipster-core at all. So this is just an interim workaround.
Once we resolve the issue we should revert the documentation to make jdl
parsing a first class citizen of jhipster

Thanks & regards,
Deepu

OK @deepu105 I'm re-opening it

[splashBrother]

Hello guys, is this fix released yet?
Using jhipstter-uml with microservice keyword in my file doesn't work(I have installed v3.4.2).
Thanks!

[ruddell]

@splashBrother A release containing this fix is currently planned for Wednesday (2 days). https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/jhipster-dev/7ZtAZJKAPN8

[splashBrother]

Ok thanks for your prompt reply and for the great job!

[jdubois]

I'll do my best on Wednesday, but no promises :-)
