How to make an entity relationship required

Hello I'm generating some Entity with the jhipster generator.

When I generate an entity relationship, I'd like to make the value in that field mandatory but unfortunately, the generator doesn't provide that option.

Is there anyway to inform the generator of this necessity? (editing the .jhipster/entity_name.json), for example?

Since this commit JHipster supports the required validation on relationships too.

This is an example from a JDL file:

relationship ManyToOne { Certificate{ca(name) required} to CertificateAuthority }

('Certificate' and 'CertificateAuthority' are entities and 'ca' is the field name)

The relevant part from the .jhipster/Certificate.json:

"relationships": [ { "relationshipType": "many-to-one", "relationshipValidateRules": "required", "relationshipName": "ca", "otherEntityName": "certificateAuthority", "otherEntityField": "name" },

The generated Certificate.ca field:

@ManyToOne @NotNull private CertificateAuthority ca;

And the generated form has a 'This field is required.' warning at the Ca filed.
