IntelliJ as a Service
Make IntelliJ as a Java server that does autocompletion for Vim.
This is not an official Google product (i.e. a 20% project).
Installation
- git clone.
- Import project into IntelliJ. Use Gradle plugin.
- Run
gradle buildPlugin. It createsbuild/distributions/ijaas-*.zipat the
git root dir. (You can pass-Pintellij.version=IC-2017.2.6to specify the
IntelliJ version.) - Select "File" menu and click "Settings...". In "Plugins" menu, click "Install
plugin from disk..." button. Chooseijaas-*.zip. You can uninstall this
plugin from this menu. - Restart IntelliJ.
- Add "vim" directory to your runtimepath in Vim in your own way.
(e.g. Plug "$HOME/src/ijaas/vim").
Development
If you want to isolate your development version and the current version, you
might need two clones. You can load Vim plugins conditionally by using
environment variables.
if !exists('$USE_DEV_IJAAS')
Plug '$HOME/src/ijaas-dev/vim'
else
Plug '$HOME/src/ijaas/vim'
endif
You can start another IntelliJ instance by using gradle runIdea. You can pass
-Dijaas.port=5801 to make the testing IntelliJ process listen on a different
port (see https://github.com/JetBrains/gradle-intellij-plugin/issues/18).
Connect to the testing IntelliJ with USE_DEV_IJAAS=1 IJAAS_PORT=5801 vim. The
ijaas vim plugin will recognize IJAAS_PORT and use that to connect to the
ijaas IntelliJ plugin.
