Overview of the issue

I am trying to generate a monolithic an Angular 4 app with jhipster. I have specified a custom – jhi-prefix but my generated angular components are services still have the “jhi” default prefix

I am generating the app using the following command

yo jhipster:app --skip-install --skip-user-management --jhi-prefix app --npm --skip-cache
