Panache entities are JPA entities with an extends PanacheEntity or extends PanacheEntityBase at the type decaration site.

You can generate your JPA entities, both Eclipse and ItelliJ IDEA have plugins for that, then add the extends clause.

Be carefull that if you extends PanacheEntity you should use the default id strategy that it provides (an autogenerated Long id), so better extends PanacheEntityBase if you generates from an existing schema.

Panache also provides a repository approach that can be useful if you don't want to update your entity after generation.
