Git Repository Setup

Fork the repository and clone it to your workspace. Then add this repository as the upstream repository:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster-react-native.git

Running Local Blueprint for Development

During development of blueprint, please note the below steps. They are very important.

  1. Link your blueprint globally
cd generator-jhipster-react-native
npm link
  1. Link a development version of JHipster to your blueprint (optional: required only if you want to use a non-released JHipster version, like the main branch or your own custom fork)
cd generator-jhipster
npm link

cd generator-jhipster-react-native
npm link generator-jhipster

Generating an App

Generating an app using your local generator-jhipster-react-native blueprint is similar to normal.

jhipster --blueprints react-native

Making Changes to the Generator

It's recommended to create and test the changes in a generated app, then transfer the changes to the boilerplate files. Use git to help track your progress.

When generating an app, make sure to link the blueprint after installing node_modules.

# in your generated app folder
npm link generator-jhipster-react-native

After linking generator-jhipster-react-native, running any of the subgenerators (such as entity or jdl) will use your local blueprint code.
