It is strongly recommended you use [IntelliJ IDEA](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download), as it's the IDE the
|
|
project is developed in. Use the free Community Edition if you don't have (or want) a commercial license. It is
|
|
more than capable.
|
|
|
|
It may be possible to use other IDEs, but the code uses a relatively advanced build system and some IDEs get very
|
|
confused by this.
|
|
|
|
## JDK 21 (+preview)
|
|
The codebase uses Java 21 preview features. You may need to configure your IDE to use Java 21, or set the language version to 21 (preview). Usually it's
|
|
smart enough to figure it out, but sometimes it's not.
|
|
|
|
Go to `File > Project Structure > Project`, ensure it's set to use a JDK21 SDK, and set the Project SDK to 21 (preview).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Lombok, other plugins
|
|
|
|
The codebase uses Lombok. To prevent the IDE from finding fault with the code, you need to install the Lombok plugin.
|
|
|
|
You may also want protobuf and docker plugins, although this is optional.
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
It makes life a lot easier to set up a docker-compose run configuration in IntelliJ. Configure it like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Select the docker-compose file from your install directory, and then add a 'Before Launch' gradle task
|
|
to build the project. It should run 'assemble docker'. Then you can just run the configuration and
|
|
it will build and run the project (e.g. Shift+F10).
|
|
|
|
## Optional: Use Scopes
|
|
|
|
Since the project is sprawling with submodules, it can help sanity to use IDE scopes.
|
|
In IntelliJ, you can click the little cog in the top of the side-bar (1), then select `Edit Scopes` (2).
|
|
Create a scope with the components you want to work with, and then it shows up in the drop-down (3).
