Jeepster import-jdl does not create objects

I have a problem with import-jdl and I'm not sure why it is not working. I am trying to create objects for a microservice application.

All I get is

Imported jdl.

but nothing more.

I used the https://jhipster.imtqy.com/jdl-studio/ sample provided by JDL without any changes.

I tried this on my Mac, Linux (Ubuntu) and the Docker container, but I get the same error.

I faced the same situation: jdl is imported but nothing is generated. As Vikas Joshi suggests trying jhipster-uml:

 npm install -g jhipster-uml jhipster-uml ./jhipster-jdl.jh -db mongodb

jhispter-uml usually returns more feedback. In any case, keep in mind that in MongoDB as a noSQL database this is not so, some parameters do not make sense (for example, relations between entities).

I also struggled with the same error (for MySql iso MongoDB). I used jhipster-uml iso jhipster: import-jdl to create entities, and it worked for me. Hope it works with MongoDB too. I don't know why this does not work with import-jdl.

I am running the same issue on my OSX. Currently, I have managed to get around this through a linux virtual machine (debian / ubuntu) using jipster-generator version 3.4.0. A newer version will not create entities even for me.

Try to remove all the content installed from the bottom up from the installation guide here to the nodejs node.

So you will do the following:

 npm uninstall -g generator-jhipster npm uninstall -g gulp npm uninstall -g bower npm uninstall -g yo

Then follow the steps to remove nodejs from here

After uninstalling, run the nodejs and commponents installation again, as suggested in the ihipster manual with the only difference in the last step:

 npm install -g generator-jhipster@3.4.0

I came across this about a month ago. It turned out the errors in the .jh file. Can you check / post your jh file here? Hope this helps.

Especially for relations with a foreign key, it is enough to define a column only in the base object. You also do not need to define it in the target.

Edit: Oh, just noticed that you are using MongoDB. This answer does not apply to you. Mods, please delete this post if not relevant.

if you are here because your jhipster import-jdl youfile.jdl does not generate java code for entities, but reports that entities have been imported, try

jhipster import-jdl youfile.jdl --force
