This application was generated using JHipster 7.3.0, you can find documentation and help at https://www.jhipster.tech/documentation-archive/v7.3.0.

This is a "microservice" application intended to be part of a microservice architecture, please refer to the Doing microservices with JHipster page of the documentation for more information. This application is configured for Service Discovery and Configuration with the JHipster-Registry. On launch, it will refuse to start if it is not able to connect to the JHipster-Registry at http://localhost:8761. For more information, read our documentation on Service Discovery and Configuration with the JHipster-Registry.

To start your application in the dev profile, run:

./mvnw

For further instructions on how to develop with JHipster, have a look at Using JHipster in development.

JHipster Control Center can help you manage and control your application(s). You can start a local control center server (accessible on http://localhost:7419) with:

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/jhipster-control-center.yml up

Congratulations! You've selected an excellent way to secure your JHipster application. If you're not sure what OAuth and OpenID Connect (OIDC) are, please see What the Heck is OAuth?

To log in to your app, you'll need to have Keycloak up and running. The JHipster Team has created a Docker container for you that has the default users and roles. Start Keycloak using the following command.

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/keycloak.yml up

The security settings in src/main/resources/config/application.yml are configured for this image.

spring:
  ...
  security:
    oauth2:
      client:
        provider:
          oidc:
            issuer-uri: http://localhost:9080/auth/realms/jhipster
        registration:
          oidc:
            client-id: web_app
            client-secret: web_app
            scope: openid,profile,email

If you'd like to use Okta instead of Keycloak, it's pretty quick using the Okta CLI. After you've installed it, run:

okta register

Then, in your JHipster app's directory, run okta apps create and select JHipster. This will set up an Okta app for you, create ROLE_ADMIN and ROLE_USER groups, create a .okta.env file with your Okta settings, and configure a groups claim in your ID token.

Run source .okta.env and start your app with Maven or Gradle. You should be able to sign in with the credentials you registered with.

If you're on Windows, you should install WSL so the source command will work.

If you'd like to configure things manually through the Okta developer console, see the instructions below.

First, you'll need to create a free developer account at https://developer.okta.com/signup/. After doing so, you'll get your own Okta domain, that has a name like https://dev-123456.okta.com.

Modify src/main/resources/config/application.yml to use your Okta settings.

spring:
  ...
  security:
    oauth2:
      client:
        provider:
          oidc:
            issuer-uri: https://{yourOktaDomain}/oauth2/default
        registration:
          oidc:
            client-id: {clientId}
            client-secret: {clientSecret}
security:

Create an OIDC App in Okta to get a {clientId} and {clientSecret}. To do this, log in to your Okta Developer account and navigate to Applications > Add Application. Click Web and click the Next button. Give the app a name you’ll remember, specify http://localhost:8080 as a Base URI, and http://localhost:8080/login/oauth2/code/oidc as a Login Redirect URI. Click Done, then Edit and add http://localhost:8080 as a Logout redirect URI. Copy and paste the client ID and secret into your application.yml file.

Create a ROLE_ADMIN and ROLE_USER group and add users into them. Modify e2e tests to use this account when running integration tests. You'll need to change credentials in src/test/javascript/e2e/account/account.spec.ts and src/test/javascript/e2e/admin/administration.spec.ts.

Navigate to API > Authorization Servers, click the Authorization Servers tab and edit the default one. Click the Claims tab and Add Claim. Name it "groups", and include it in the ID Token. Set the value type to "Groups" and set the filter to be a Regex of .*.

After making these changes, you should be good to go! If you have any issues, please post them to Stack Overflow. Make sure to tag your question with "jhipster" and "okta".

If you'd like to use Auth0 instead of Keycloak, follow the configuration steps below:

• Create a free developer account at https://auth0.com/signup. After successful sign-up, your account will be associated with a unique domain like dev-xxx.us.auth0.com
• Create a new application of type Regular Web Applications. Switch to the Settings tab, and configure your application settings like:
  • Allowed Callback URLs: http://localhost:8080/login/oauth2/code/oidc
  • Allowed Logout URLs: http://localhost:8080/
• Navigate to User Management > Roles and create new roles named ROLE_ADMIN, and ROLE_USER.
• Navigate to User Management > Users and create a new user account. Click on the Role tab to assign roles to the newly created user account.
• Navigate to Auth Pipeline > Rules and create a new Rule. Choose Empty rule template. Provide a meaningful name like JHipster claims and replace Script content with the following and Save.

function (user, context, callback) {
  user.preferred_username = user.email;
  const roles = (context.authorization || {}).roles;

  function prepareCustomClaimKey(claim) {
    return `https://www.jhipster.tech/${claim}`;
  }

  const rolesClaim = prepareCustomClaimKey('roles');

  if (context.idToken) {
    context.idToken[rolesClaim] = roles;
  }

  if (context.accessToken) {
    context.accessToken[rolesClaim] = roles;
  }

  callback(null, user, context);
}

• In your JHipster application, modify src/main/resources/config/application.yml to use your Auth0 application settings:

spring:
  ...
  security:
    oauth2:
      client:
        provider:
          oidc:
            # make sure to include the ending slash!
            issuer-uri: https://{your-auth0-domain}/
        registration:
          oidc:
            client-id: {clientId}
            client-secret: {clientSecret}
            scope: openid,profile,email
jhipster:
  ...
  security:
    oauth2:
      audience:
        - https://{your-auth0-domain}/api/v2/

Before running Cypress tests, specify Auth0 user credentials by overriding the CYPRESS_E2E_USERNAME and CYPRESS_E2E_PASSWORD environment variables.

export CYPRESS_E2E_USERNAME="<your-username>"
export CYPRESS_E2E_PASSWORD="<your-password>"

See Cypress' documentation for setting OS environment variables to learn more.

Auth0 requires a user to provide authorization consent on the first login. Consent flow is currently not handled in the Cypress test suite. To mitigate the issue, you can use a user account that has already granted consent to authorize application access via interactive login.

OpenAPI-Generator is configured for this application. You can generate API code from the src/main/resources/swagger/api.yml definition file by running:

./mvnw generate-sources

Then implements the generated delegate classes with @Service classes.

To edit the api.yml definition file, you can use a tool such as Swagger-Editor. Start a local instance of the swagger-editor using docker by running: docker-compose -f src/main/docker/swagger-editor.yml up -d. The editor will then be reachable at http://localhost:7742.

Refer to Doing API-First development for more details.

To build the final jar and optimize the ainnotateservice application for production, run:

./mvnw -Pprod clean verify

To ensure everything worked, run:

java -jar target/*.jar

Refer to Using JHipster in production for more details.

To package your application as a war in order to deploy it to an application server, run:

./mvnw -Pprod,war clean verify

To launch your application's tests, run:

./mvnw verify

Performance tests are run by Gatling and written in Scala. They're located in src/test/gatling.

To use those tests, you must install Gatling from https://gatling.io/.

For more information, refer to the Running tests page.

Sonar is used to analyse code quality. You can start a local Sonar server (accessible on http://localhost:9001) with:

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

Note: we have turned off authentication in src/main/docker/sonar.yml for out of the box experience while trying out SonarQube, for real use cases turn it back on.

You can run a Sonar analysis with using the sonar-scanner or by using the maven plugin.

Then, run a Sonar analysis:

./mvnw -Pprod clean verify sonar:sonar

If you need to re-run the Sonar phase, please be sure to specify at least the initialize phase since Sonar properties are loaded from the sonar-project.properties file.

./mvnw initialize sonar:sonar

For more information, refer to the Code quality page.

You can use Docker to improve your JHipster development experience. A number of docker-compose configuration are available in the src/main/docker folder to launch required third party services.

For example, to start a mysql database in a docker container, run:

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

To stop it and remove the container, run:

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/mysql.yml down

You can also fully dockerize your application and all the services that it depends on. To achieve this, first build a docker image of your app by running:

./mvnw -Pprod verify jib:dockerBuild

Then run:

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

For more information refer to Using Docker and Docker-Compose, this page also contains information on the docker-compose sub-generator (jhipster docker-compose), which is able to generate docker configurations for one or several JHipster applications.

To configure CI for your project, run the ci-cd sub-generator (jhipster ci-cd), this will let you generate configuration files for a number of Continuous Integration systems. Consult the Setting up Continuous Integration page for more information.
