title: Generate schema in dropwizard-hibernate
body: <p>I followed the tutorial for dropwizard and hibernate without problems. Now I have non trivial annotations in my entities, and I would like hibernate to generate the tables for me, and stuff like that.<strong>So, how can I change hibernate's configuration? Can I give it a hibernate.cfg.xml? If I can, do I have to set up the connection again?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I found this <a href="https://github.com/vadims/dropwizard/commit/8fff08cc093a5214b12972abae6a73097ca4db9c">PR</a>, 
  but it doesn't seem to be in the public release yet (no hibernateBundle.configure in my jars)</p>
  
  <p>But maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing. So far, I'm just trying to <strong>set hibernate.hbm2dll.auto</strong>. After all, there might be an other way to <strong>enable hibernate table generation in Dropwizard</strong>... So, any help?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>

  <p>Edit: I approached the problem from another angle, to explicitly create the schema instead of using hbm2ddl.auto. See proposed answer.</p>
