create-microservice

To scaffold a Maven microservice project, you provide a service name, tier, groupId, and initial entity. The tool then generates a complete five-module Maven structure with interfaces, models, core, web, and sdk modules following framework conventions.

A Firefly Framework microservice uses a five-module Maven structure: interfaces, models, core, sdk, and web. This layout includes a parent POM and consistent naming derived from your initial service inputs to maintain framework conventions.

You generate package structures and artifactId by providing your service name, tier, and groupId during the interactive scaffolding process. The tool automatically derives the base Java package and artifactId from these inputs to populate the project templates.

Yes, you can generate starter templates for DTOs, entities, services, and controllers. By supplying an initial entity name during project creation, the scaffolding process provides sample artifacts aligned with standard framework conventions.

No, you do not need to manually configure Maven modules. The scaffolding process automates the creation of the parent POM and the full five-module layout, ensuring consistent naming and structure across interfaces, models, core, sdk, and web modules.

Required inputs include the service name, tier, groupId, base Java package, and an initial entity name. Providing these allows the scaffolding tool to derive the artifactId, package structure, and generate the necessary multi-module Maven project files.
