How to add existing folder into a RubyMine project?

I created a new project in RubyMine, and wanted to add my existing folders of Ruby scripts to it, but could not find a way to add the existing folder/directory from the RubyMine UI. Does anyone know whether RubyMine allow this kind of operation? Any help is much appreciated.

Hi Yana,

At current moment RubyMine UI allows your to open any directory (as a new project) with existing ruby scripts or create new project in some folder and then create all necessary files under this folder.

Hi Roman.Chernyatchik,

Thanks for your hint, unfortunately, opening existing folder as new project won't help me here. What I am trying to do is to migrate my Ruby projects which has hierarchy of folders of Ruby scripts, I need a way to make these existing folder showing up in the newly created RubyMine project rather than open each folder as a new project, probably a feature like rightclicking on the project to pick a pop up menu item of "Add existing folder" would help.

Ok, and if open parent folder of your folders as RubyMine project? In fact I understand your issue and it is reasonable to port conception of "content roots" from IDEA.

Hi Roman.Chernyatchik. That was it, I open the root folder as a new project and I find all my folders of scripts. This is not very obvious(or not very user friendly), but works for me now.

Thanks for your help!
