How to use latest JHipster version to generate my app?

Question

I'm not (yet) familiar with the javascript stack but I'd like to use JHipster latest commit from master to generate my webapp.

How do I build locally generator-jhipster project and use it with yo jhipster?

Answer 1

You can use npm link 1 for that:

git clone git@github.com:jhipster/generator-jhipster.git
cd generator-jhipster
npm link

it will create a globally-installed symbolic link.
You can then use the generator on your system normally. yo jhipster

Answer 2

just use it 1. sudo apt-get update 2.sudo npm install -g generator-jhipster

please before install jhipster confirm you have used sudo apt-get update then it will work 100% Thank you
