Automatic plugin installation for IntelliJ #453
Comments
To install a plugin for IntelliJ follow these steps:
I tested this with Intellij IDEA 2020.2 with the scala plugin, and it's works. https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/206178329-How-to-install-idea-plugins-from-the-command-line- |
@tobka777 thanks for your analysis and feedback. 👍 Can we somehow reconfigure the plugins directory? It seems that IntelliJ by default uses some location in the users home directory that would be the same for all installations of devonfw-ide and IntelliJ within. However, a general concept in devonfw-ide is that we follow a sandbox principle whereever possible. For Eclipse and VSCode we have an isolated plugins/extension folder for each instance of devonfw-ide. For VSCode we simply enforce this by providing the folder-path as parameter on program start. I would assume we could do the same also for IntelliJ but have no clue currently about the commandline options of IntelliJ. So similar to Eclipse Update-Site we would need the URL of the Plugin or the Plugin-ID as "configuration input".

We can do it with setting up the config path in the I also found out that there is already a configuration ([DEVON_IDE_HOME]/settings/intellij/workspace/update/idea.properties) |

Install plugin from command line |
As a devonfw-ide user, I want to use IntelliJ with some mandatory plugins automatically so that all developers in my team can make use of the features from that mandatory plugins to do their job.
