Initialise Project, must read PSI-Files

Answered

Hey,

i am currently working on https://github.com/carymrobbins/intellij-haskforce, and i want to improve the project-import experience, by adding modules and marking the source-code/tests-directories correctly

The only sane way is to use the PSI-Files to get the relevant information from the cabal-files (custom format). But i am getting multiple error:

- Project is not yet initialized: Project '/Users/LeanderK/Documents/Haskell/XY' XY 

- Assertion failed: Access to psi files should be performed only after startup activity 

- Project is not yet initialized: Project '/Users/LeanderK/Documents/Haskell/XY' XY

Is there a way to achieve what i want to do? For example a callback where i call the setup code only after i can get access to PSI-Files?

postStartupActivity extension point

in your StartupActivity implementation, in runActivity, add this:

StartupManager.getInstance(project)
.registerPostStartupActivity(() -> {
// the setup code
});

hmm ok, thank you. But then i have another problem. How can i add source-paths to existing modules?

Modules don't have the method and i don't see how i can get a ModuleBuilder out of an Module.

ProjectStructureDetector may help. 

Override this class to provide automatic detection of modules and libraries for 'Create from existing sources' mode of the new project/module wizard.

I never used it so can't suggest more than what the comments say. It seems to be made for this purpose.

I solved it in another way,it is possible to create PSI-files nonetheless. You just have to do it "from scratch":

val text = try {
new String(virtualFile.contentsToByteArray(), StandardCharsets.UTF_8)
} catch {
case e: IOException =>
LOG.warn(s"Could not read CabalFile $virtualFile: $e", e)
return None
}
PsiFileFactory.getInstance(defaultProject).createFileFromText(
virtualFile.getName, CabalLanguage.INSTANCE, text
) match {
case psiFile: CabalFile => Some(psiFile)
case other =>
LOG.warn(new AssertionError(s"Expected CabalFile, got: ${other.getClass}"))
None
}

as long as it works

To work with existing files' PSI, postStartupActivity is indeed the easiest way.

To modify module roots, you can use ModuleRootModificationUtil or ModuleRootManager.getModifiableModel directly.
