skip applications install when generating workspaces.

[mshima]

Current jdl generation makes npm workspaces unsuitable for auto install.
So disable it by default.

npm 8. changed the workspaces behavior by deduping dependencies to the root.
We generate applications in parallel, so install will be executed 3 times in same npm tree causing lots of problems.
We need to execute npm install only once.

---

Please make sure the below checklist is followed for Pull Requests.

• All continuous integration tests are green
• Tests are added where necessary
• The JDL part is updated if necessary
• jhipster-online is updated if necessary
• Documentation is added/updated where necessary
• Coding Rules & Commit Guidelines as per our CONTRIBUTING.md document are followed

When you are still working on the PR, consider converting it to Draft (below reviewers) and adding skip-ci label, you can still see CI build result at your branch.

I don't know if I'm testing this branch correctly. Here's what I tried:

jhipster jdl reactive-mf --workspaces --skip-commit-hook

I saw the 'npm install' was skipped due to workspaces message, but it's a little buried so I didn't run it at first. It seems necessary to run it so maybe we need to colorize this so it sticks out more?

I tried npm run ci:e2e:prepare in the top-level directory and since Docker images are missing, it gave me an error. This seems to be expected.

> ci:e2e:prepare
> docker-compose -f docker-compose/docker-compose.yml up -d

Then, I tried building Docker images in each app. They all fail.

If I run npm install from the top-level and try again, it seems to work. The errors I receive seem to be related to Docker and my local setup.

I was able to fix my Docker issues using this answer on Stack Overflow.

After fixing Docker, I built each image and ran npm run ci:e2e:prepare at the top level. After everything was started, I tried:

npm run e2e --workspaces

This worked!

[mshima]

@mraible now it skips install at applications, installs at the root.

Tested using:

jhipster jdl reactive-mf --workspaces
npm run java:docker:arm64
npm run ci:e2e:prepare

Then access localhost:8080

[mraible]

We might want to add some information about workspaces and how it works in our microfrontends documentation. Linking to an outside explanation is fine, but I'd love to see this example provided and briefly explained.

Both of these pages show up when I search for "jhipster microservices" and "jhipster microfrontends".

• https://www.jhipster.tech/creating-microservices/
• https://www.jhipster.tech/microservices-architecture/

[mraible]

I love how fast the M1 is for e2e tests!

$ npm run e2e --workspaces
