IntelliJ plugin #121

Closed gitgabrio closed 5 years ago

gitgabrio commented 5 years ago

Hi, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place. I've just done a first prototype of an IntelliJ "Run configuration" plugin that just launches the codeserver and the jetty on different terminals. As it is, it is just a shortcut to avoid issuing the two commands on the terminal. Do you think it could be useful to have it, eventually with more features?

Unless things are to be done in the Maven plugin itself for IDE integration (like META-INF/m2e/lifecycle-mapping-metadata.xml for Eclipse), this is the “wrong place”.

I could however possibly add a link to an IntelliJ IDEA plugin from the README. If you publish something, I'd encourage advertising it on https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/google-web-toolkit too.

Fwiw, a quick search lead to https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7248-multirun; I don't know how close to your plugin this approach is.

Hi Thomas, thanks for your answer! Multirun seems a little bit "generic", while I wanted to do something more specific for your maven plugin. I agree it is a bit "curious" to have an IDE-plugin to launch a maven one, so if I can not give it some real use, I'll stop to work on it. Anyway, thanks for your job on the GWT plugin! Gabriele
