Please make sure you have completed the initial development environment setup before doing the following.

JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA Installation

  1. Download & install the latest version of IDEA (at least 5.0).

IDEA Plugins

IDEA has many plugins which can be downloaded and installed from IDEA's 'Plugin Settings' section. To add plugins, try the following:

  1. Click 'File > Settings'.
  2. Select the 'Plugins' section.
  3. Switch to the 'Available' tab.
  4. Right-click on the desired plugin and select 'Download and Install Plugin'.

Some plugins which can be helpful for developing Atlassian plugins are:

  • MevenIDE - Adds Maven project.xml support to IDEA
  • Raven - Allows browsing of remote Maven repositories.

Atlassian-IDEA Maven Plugin Installation

The Atlassian-IDEA Maven plugin automatically creates IDEA project files (.ipr, .iml, .iws) based on the 'project.xml' file for your project. It is an enhancement of the standard 'idea' plugin for Maven.

  1. Use an SVN tool such as TortoiseSVN to checkout the latest plugin version (at least version 3.0).
  2. Unpack the distribution into $MY_WORKING_DIR.
  3. Open a console and execute the following:
    cd $MY_WORKING_DIR/atlassian-idea-plugin-X.X.X
    maven plugin:install
    

What's Next?

Now that we've (finally) got the pieces in place, the next stage is to get Confluence setup and running inside IDEA. How you do this will depend on whether or not you have access to the Confluence source code. Currently this is only available to commercial licensees. Choose your setup type:
