Popup when CMD+clicking String constant

已回答

Hi!

I have constants defined in my code which are feature flag names, lie

private static final String MY_CONFIG = “my.awesome.feature.config”

It's tedious to go every time to external system to check actual value behind these ff, so I want to write a plugin which will display a popup with the actual value (fetched via http endpoint) on Cmd+Click. Ideally I woud take into account constant's name, so the action should work only for constanst ending with _CONFIG

 

What components should I use for it?

Hi Gennadiy,

Showing it via Cmd+Click is not a good idea as this is a core shortcut for going to declaration/finding usages.

I suggest implementing this feature via quick documentation feature. For more details, see:
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/documentation.html

Users will be allowed to see the fetched values in the documentation popup shown on hover or when the Quick Documentation shortcut is invoked.
