[jvolkman]

Tracking issue for IntelliJ 2020.2, which was released July 28.

@unoexperto posted a diff for an earlier EAP release in this comment.

Will this repo be updated to support 2020.2? Or is there some kind of blocker?

[unoexperto]

@nicknezis I periodically rebuild bazel plugin from master branch for my team. If you want you can try my binary http://u.pc.cd/Lrg7 (no guarantees).

[nicknezis]

Thank you. It worked. Do you have a documented process that I can follow? It seems this plugin always lags behind, but I'm not sure why.

[unoexperto]

@nicknezis Nothing more than I described in #1567 (comment). If you guys prefer I can fork official branch so you can build the binary yourself.

[nicknezis]

Thanks. I'm happy using your binary. It worked so thanks again. I was partly curious because if I'm building it anyway I might add some Python closures that aren't included in the official build. We use pex_binary which doesn't get picked up like py_binary. Thanks for the help and info!

[jitsni]

I am using the binary, but it doesn't seem resolve external java lib dependencies.

[unoexperto]

@jitsni Unfortunately your problem is not specific to my binary. Bazel plugin is notorious for randomly failing which drives me (and my 100 engineers team) nuts. So I can suggest making sure that fetch_sources flag is set to True. And if it was then I can only suggest trying to re-sync the project from scratch multiple times. Sometimes it takes me entire day to "fix" it.

@chaoren could we get some attention here please?

[zellyn]

@brendandouglas do y'all have a schedule for releases? No pressure, since I'm sure this is all volunteer work! I'm trying to decide whether to attempt an IntelliJ downgrade, or wait for a release of the Bazel plugin. Thanks!

[kusold]

@zellyn regarding downgrades, the Jetbrains Toolbox makes this very easy to do:

Also, I would suggest pinning your IDE version so that future updates don't break your Bazel usage.

[brendandouglas]

@zellyn, we don't have a schedule for releases. We try to add support for new releases soon after they stabilize, but we're focused on other things (remote development support for internal users) at the moment, so it will be delayed, likely until late September / early October.

[zellyn]

@kusold thanks for that tip - I'll give it a try.
@brendandouglas thank you for the update. Clear expectations are almost as good as a recent release :-)

[ittaiz]

@brendandouglas when you say "remove development support" you mean something like what VSCode offers (GUI on my machine but brains, sources, bazel invocations on a remote machine) or something like better integration with remote execution?
Asking out of interest since "full" remote dev for Bazel IntelliJ sounds like a dream :)

[brendandouglas]

Not full remote development support, but support for bazel invocations on a remote machine. It's internal only and mac only though, and not a great experience.

[ittaiz]

Got you. Thanks for the clarification. Good luck!

My desire for 2020.2 support is tied to our team's desire to begin using the new remote pair-programming tooling:

I have built a custom build myself. I removed scala support. It would not work properly, but I a, uploading this, in case there's somebody really want to use this.

[mistic]

@brendandouglas do we have any news here?

[brendandouglas]

We're working on 2020.2 support currently. It's not the top priority, so may be a few more weeks before it's completed.

[aristofun]

thanks in advance, waiting for it so much

[tpasternak]

@brendandouglas thank you, too! Would you accept any contributions in this area? I think I could try to work on it a bit

[illera88]

It seems that someone already did it: #2185

Can you merge so it can work?

[sambercovici]

see: #2202

Sorry that this took a bit longer. The source code should now be compatible with IntelliJ 2020.2. So, you can try building from the tip of master if you don't want to wait for the official release.

For CLion 2020.2, we'll still need some adjustments. Thanks for the pull requests in that area.

[alice-ks]

We just pushed a new release of the IntelliJ plugin to the plugin repository. This release is compatible with 2020.2.

[kusold]

What plugin version is compatible with 2020.2? 2020.11.17.0.2 Dec 11, 2020 is the latest release that I'm finding, but the change notes (* Bug fixes and internal cleanup.) don't indicate if this is the 2020.2 compatible version or not.

You need 2020.12.01.0.1 for 2020.2. You can find an overview of plugin versions and their IDE compatibility here: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/8609-bazel/versions.

[jvolkman]

Closing since 2020.2 has been supported for a while now.

FYI, IntelliJ 2023.1.2 works with marketplace plugin version 2023.05.02.0.1
