“roo> database reverse engineer –schema –package –testAutomatically –enableViews –includeTables –excludeTables –includeNonPortableAttributes” This command creates JPA entities in your project representing the tables and columns in your database. roo> database reverse engineer –schema order –package ~.domain

“roo> perform eclipse” create IDE-specific workspace configuration artifacts if you not using STS or m2eclipse. Once this command has completed you are ready to import your project into STS by clicking ‘File > Import > General > Existing Projects into Workspace’. If you’re using STS or have installed m2eclipse into an Eclipse-based IDE can skip the perform eclipse command entirely. In this case you simply need to select in STS/Eclipse the ‘File > Import > General > Maven Projects’ menu option.

“roo> backup” Issuing this command will create you a
backup of the current workspace with all sources, log files and the script log file (excluding the target
directory)

“roo> addon search” lists all add-ons

“roo> script bikeshop.roo” Import roo script

“roo> perform package” This command produces your war file which can then be easily copied into your production Web container.

"mvn gwt:run" to play with the GWT client
"mvn tomcat:run" to start the Tomcat MVC front-end
"mvn jetty:run-exploded"
"mvn eclipse:eclipse" and then use Eclipse's "General > Import Existing Project into Workspace" feature. Leave the Roo shell running and feel free to edit in Eclipse
"mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.oracle -DartifactId=ojdbc14 -Dversion=10.2.0.2 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=/path/to/file" maven command to install your driver into your local maven repository

org.hibernate.HibernateException: The database returned no natively generated identity value

It should be an auto_increment column for the IDENTITY generator to work. Else, the database doesn’t return any generated ID.

Themes

To achieve a higher level of customization you can change the default Tiles template (WEB-INF/layouts/default.jspx) and adjust the JSP pages (WEB-INF/views/*.jspx).
