Handle file opening

Created October 01, 2018 20:47

Hi! I am creating plugin for Intellij. Looking for help with handling File and Project opening events.

To clarify my question:
Case for file opening handle in editor: I want to add my custom InlayParameterHintsProvider above each method on file opening.
Case for project: I want to do some calculus on project opening.

Hope for a quick response, thank you!

File opened listener:

MessageBus bus = project.getMessageBus();
bus.connect().subscribe(FileEditorManagerListener.FILE_EDITOR_MANAGER, new FileEditorManagerListener() {
    @Override
    public void fileOpened(@NotNull FileEditorManager source, @NotNull VirtualFile file) {
        //your code
    }
});

Thank you, Brian!
And how can I do something like this on Project opening event?

Create a new class that implements ProjectComponent, register it in the plugin.xml, then put the code you want to run in the constructor.
