💿 Plugin installation

You can download and install the plugin via the Eclipse Marketplace, or simply drag the below button to your running Eclipse workspace:

Drag to your running Eclipse* workspace. *Requires Eclipse Marketplace Client

Alternatively, head to the update site and follow the instructions listed there.

Once installed, the plugin will simply kick in when opening any Ruby file in Eclipse; there is no Ruby-specific project type or perspective.

Tips and tricks

To improve code completion and intellisense, it is recommended to generate YARD documentation for your gems (run yard gems in a terminal).

You can fine-tune Solargraph's behaviour on a per-project basis by creating a .solargraph.yml configuration file.
