Importing Bisq into IntelliJ IDEA

Most Bisq contributors use IDEA for development. The following instructions have been tested on IDEA 2018.2.

  1. Follow the instructions in build.md to clone and build Bisq at the command line.
  2. Open IDEA
  3. Go to Help->Edit Custom Properties..., add a line to the file that reads idea.max.intellisense.filesize=12500 (to handle Bisq's very large generated PB.java Protobuf source file)
  4. Go to Preferences->Plugins. Search for and install the Lombok plugin. When prompted, do not restart IDEA.
  5. Go to Preferences->Build, Execution, Deployment->Compiler->Annotation Processors and check the Enable annotation processing option (to enable processing of Lombok annotations)
  6. Restart IDEA
  7. Go to Import Project, select the settings.gradle file and click Open
  8. In the Import Project from Gradle screen, check the Use auto-import option and click OK
  9. When prompted whether to overwrite the existing .idea directory, click Yes
  10. In the Project tool window, right click on the root-level .idea folder, select Git->Revert... and click OK in the dialog that appears (to restore source-controlled .idea configuration files that get overwritten during project import)
  11. Go to Build->Build Project. Everything should build cleanly. You should be able to run tests, run main methods in any component, etc.

TIP: If you encounter compilation errors in IDEA related to the io.bisq.generated.protobuffer.PB class, it is probably because you didn't build Bisq at the command line as instructed above. You need to run the generateProto task in the common project. You can do this via the Gradle tool window in IDEA, or you can do it the command line with ./gradlew :common:generateProto. Once you've done that, run Build->Build Project again and you should have no errors.
