JHipster导入JDL/创建实体仅生成客户端，无Java文件生成求助

Hey there, let's get to the bottom of why your JHipster commands aren't spitting out those Java files you need!

Root Cause #

Looking at your .yo-rc.json configuration, the key issue is this line:

"skipServer": true

This JHipster flag explicitly tells the generator to skip all server-side code generation—that includes Java entities, repositories, services, and other backend components. The reason Liquibase files still generated is likely due to the generator-jhipster-entity-audit plugin you have configured, which handles database auditing changes independently of the core server skip setting.

Step-by-Step Fix #

1. Backup your configuration first (always a good habit!)
   Make a copy of your .yo-rc.json file before making any edits.

2. Update the skipServer setting
   Open .yo-rc.json and change:

   "skipServer": true
   

   to:

   "skipServer": false
   

3. Re-run your generation command
   Execute the same import or entity command you used before, like:

   jhipster import-jdl db/jhipster-jdl.jh
   

   or

   jhipster:entity someEntity
   

   JHipster will now generate all missing Java files (entities, repositories, services, etc.) while respecting your existing Liquibase changes (no duplicate or conflicting database scripts will be created).

Alternative: Temporary Override (No Config Edit) #

If you don't want to permanently change your configuration, you can override the skipServer flag directly in the command line:

jhipster import-jdl db/jhipster-jdl.jh --skip-server false

Quick Note #

Since you're using JHipster 4.13.1 (a slightly older version), this flag behaves exactly as described—double-check that you don't have any other conflicting plugin settings that might interfere, but the skipServer toggle is the main culprit here.
