JHipster - Generate gateway from existing AWS microservice

I'm trying to generate a Gateway from an existing microservice hosted in AWS (I also have it on my local machine). According to the JHipster Doing Microservices under the 'Creating Microservices' section, it states: "If you choose to generate the entity from a microservice, you will need to enter the path to this microservice on your local computer, and then JHipster will generate the front-end code on the gateway."

To me this means if I can generate an entity from a microservice, I should be able to generate the Gateway from the generated entity.

Does anyone know the commands, or setup steps, or have a guide on how to do such a thing? I'm stumped.

Yes your understanding is correct. Assuming you already have generated a microservice app with Foo entity.

  1. Generate a gateway using yo jhipster
  2. In gateway folder, run yo jhipster:entity Foo. Choose to generate the entity from a microservice, enter the path to this microservice on your local computer, and then JHipster will generate the front-end code on the gateway according to the definition of the entity in the service .jhipster/Foo.json
