roo reverse engineer

These are the steps I followed to have roo generate the database entities.

mkdir project
cd project
roo

In roo type the following to create a project along with the persistence layer.

project --topLevelPackage com.tecunhuman.example
persistence setup --provider HIBERNATE --database POSTGRES

exit roo and modify the file "src/main/resources/META-INF/spring/database.properties" to contain the correct information for the database. run roo again and execute:

database reverse engineer --schema schema-name

It will inspect the database and generate the DAO classes.
