Add blob support from JHipster.

[MathieuAA]

Work to be done:

• Add blob (byte[]);
• Find a way to specify its content (an image or any binary) for fieldTypeBlobContent;
• Add validations (required, minbytes and maxbytes);
• Add the mention fieldsContainBlob;
• Add the two mentions of the validations (fieldValidateRulesMinbytes and fieldValidateRulesMaxbytes).

That should be everything to add (not to mention the wiki).

The Blob implementation is paused until it is fixed in JHipster.
The current state is available here.

We distinguish two types of "Blobs": the AnyBlob and the ImageBlob. Both are treated the same by JHipster (as they are byte arrays). One needs to create a custom DataType (or any custom Type) to use them in JHipster-UML. To create an ImageBlob, just create a DataType named ImageBlob. To create an AnyBlob, just create an AnyBlob and/or a Blob (easier...).

Great! Does it work in its current state?

By the way, by fixed you mean released?

[MathieuAA]

I think it does. The only problem I have is that the tests from JHipster don't pass (with or without JHipster-UML, 4 tests fail).
And I've not yet done the tests for JHipster-UML.

[MathieuAA]

The tests are done. Once everything's ok in JHipster, I will merge the blobImpl branch with master.

[andidev]

So the test in jhipster fail? Do you mean the maven tests?

[MathieuAA]

Yes. The mvn test after creating an entity with a blob[] in it fails.

[andidev]

I cant reproduce the bug. Could you create an issue in genarator-jhipster with more details?

[MathieuAA]

Yes, I will, here.
