intellij-tasks-navigate

Plugin for IntelliJ Platform based IDEs.

Adds support for navigation from comments and any injection host (IntelliLang) to tasks (issues) in Web.

Plugin could be directly installed in any modern IntelliJ based IDE: IntelliJIDEA, Android Studio, RubyMine, PyCharm, WebStorm, PHPStorm, etc. Or from releases page.

Also see plugin page in IntelliJ plugins repository.

Usage

First you have to setup some tasks server in Settings | Tools | Tasks | Servers (YouTrack, Jira, GitHub or another server)

Example: YouTrack with https://youtrack.jetbrains.com url.

Navigation from comments

In Settings | Tools | Tasks | Navigation you can enable navigation from comments, so if you have any comment in code like

public class Example {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // IDEA-62743
    }
}

Ctrl+Click or Go to declaration on IDEA-62743 would open browser on https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-62743 page

Navigation from reference injection

IntelliJIDEA and other IDEs comes with preinstalled plugin 'IntelliLang'. It's quite useful to mark some string literals as containing some other languages or references to something.

This plugin adds 'Task Reference' reference injection, so for code

public class Example {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String task = "IDEA-62743";
        System.out.println(task);
    }
}

You could set caret on IDEA-62743 and add Task Reference reference using Inject language or reference intention.

Then Ctrl+Click or Go to declaration on IDEA-62743 would open browser on https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-62743 page

This feature better to be used with custom annotations (in Java):

Assume you have annotation

package util;

import java.lang.annotation.*;

@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD})
public @interface TestFor {
    String[] issues() default {};
}

And you use it to annotate test classes or methods.

package tests;

public class TestClass {
    @util.TestFor(issues = {"IDEA-62743"})
    public String testSomething() {
        return myName;
    }
}

Once you Inject language or reference on any usage of TestFor#issues any other usage would also have such injection.

Also injection could be setup in setting and stored in project files, read IntelliLang documentation for more info.

Also quick documentation for string literals with injection is available.
