Trying to develop an EmberJS Javascript plugin for Webstorm.
I’m trying to develop an EmberJS Javascript plugin for Webstorm.
https://github.com/kristianmandrup/emberjs-plugin
I have been looking at other existing javascript plugins for inspiration and see what I can learn. Which led me to your plugin.
I can’t seem to figure out how to develop a debug such a plugin. I have tried to follow this guide http://bjorn.tipling.com/how-to-make-an-intellij-idea-plugin-in-30-minutes
but it tells me to download and install IntelliJ community edition including the source. But this seems to be only for Java, Groovy and a few other mostly non-web languages.
Do I really need the Ultimate edition to write a simple javascript plugin?
I have been trying to watch any tutorial videos I could find, but they seem far too advanced for what I need to get started...

I have my IntelliJ CE setup with a project linked to the source of the CE which I cloned in a local repo. When I launch "Debug EmberJS", I don't seem to have any of my Actions available when I create a new dummy project.
Please give me any useful advice.
Thanks!

I now managed to get a Tools Menu Action to write to System.out :)
However I'm still very much stuck on how to proceed with the Javascript specific part from within the CE.
How do I test it in webstorm I wonder? It seems, that in order to package it for Webstorm I need to copy it into Webstorm Content/plugins/ folder as a jar in a lib file?
But this is not useful while developing... Any ideas?
Hi,
JavaScript plugin is part of IntelliJ Ultimate Edition, so you will need Ultimate Edition to develop plugins using JavaScript-plugin.
Simply add its JAR files to your IntelliJ Platform SDK.
Please make sure you follow guidelines from https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/IDEADEV/Plugin+Compatibility+with+IntelliJ+Platform+Products
