A simple-build-tool plugin/processor to create IntelliJ IDEA project files for sbt project
- Sbt version 0.7.x (not compatible with 0.5.x series).
- IntelliJ Idea version 9.0.3 (Scala plugin 0.3.2039). Not fully compatible with Scala plugin versions prior to
0.3.2039 because of changes in config xml format.
Tool can be used either as SBT plugin or SBT processor (thanks to teigen for the processor integration!).
Usage as plugin requires modification of your project descriptor, whereas usage as processor is non-intrusive and requires only few commands on the sbt console. Instructions for both usage scenarios below.
1. In your project/plugins/Plugins.scala:
import sbt._
class Plugins(info: ProjectInfo) extends PluginDefinition(info) {
val sbtIdeaRepo = "sbt-idea-repo" at "http://mpeltonen.github.com/maven/"
val sbtIdea = "com.github.mpeltonen" % "sbt-idea-plugin" % "0.1-SNAPSHOT"
}
2. In your project definition file:
import sbt._
class MyProject(info: ProjectInfo) extends ParentProject(info) with IdeaProject {
// ...
}
If you have multi-module project, plugin trait must be mixed into subprojects too, for example:
import sbt._
class MyProject(info: ProjectInfo) extends ParentProject(info) with IdeaProject {
lazy val mySubProject = project("my-subproject", "my-subproject", new DefaultProject(_) with IdeaProject)
// ...
}
3. Run
sbt update sbt idea
4. Import created .ipr file into Idea
Check out sbt’s plugin documentation for further details.
1. Start sbt console on the root of your project
2. Enter the following sbt console commands (* is part of sbt processor command syntax):
> *sbtIdeaRepo at http://mpeltonen.github.com/maven/ > *idea is com.github.mpeltonen sbt-idea-processor 0.1-SNAPSHOT ... > update ... > idea ...
3. Import created .ipr file into Idea
Check out sbt’s processor documentation for further details.
You can customize some aspects of generated Idea project descriptors by creating a property file project/idea.properties
with desired properties. Currently supported properties are:
| Property | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| project.jdk.name | Value of the ‘project-jdk-name’ attribute of ProjectRootManager component | 1.6 |
| java.language.level | Value of the ‘languageLevel’ attribute of ProjectRootManager component | JDK_1_6 |
| include.sbt.project.definition.module | Generate Idea Module also for SBT project definition code | true |
