jhipster: Import a JDL file to configure your application (see: https://start.jhipster.tech/jdl-studio/).
$ jhipster import-jdl ${first_file-jh second_file-jh --- n_file-jh}
try on your machine

The given command is using the JHipster CLI tool to import JDL (JHipster Domain Language) files.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

  • jhipster: It is the command for invoking the JHipster CLI tool.
  • import-jdl: It is a specific command option of JHipster CLI used to import JDL files.
  • ${first_file-jh second_file-jh --- n_file-jh}: This part indicates the placeholder for the JDL file names. It suggests that you can specify multiple JDL file names separated by spaces.

So, to use this command, you need to replace ${first_file-jh second_file-jh --- n_file-jh} with the actual JDL file names you want to import. For example, if you have three JDL files named file1.jh, file2.jh, and file3.jh, the command would be:

jhipster import-jdl file1.jh file2.jh file3.jh

This command will import the specified JDL files and generate the necessary code and configurations for your JHipster project based on the defined entities and relationships in these files.
