feat: elide intellij plugin #1505

darvld · 2025-06-30T16:42:14Z

Summary

This PR introduces an Intellij IDEA plugin providing support for Elide as an External Build System, which allows users to edit Elide projects in the IDE, build, run, and sync them.

Roadmap (initial plugin release)

The first release will have a basic but complete set of features to enable the use of Elide in simple projects. This includes most of the capabilities expected of an external build tool in Intellij IDEA (project sync, dependency management, building, and running).

This release will be focused on Kotlin and Java, support for other languages (and polyglot features) will be added later.

Postponed:

~~Basic highlighting of elide.pkl.~~
~~Run gutter icons in project manifest for entry points and scripts.~~

Additional features (future releases)

In the future, the plugin will be enhanced with quality-of-life features and a better integration with the rest of the languages supported by Elide.

Add the ability to run JVM tests with Elide.
Add debug capabilities for JVM languages.
New project wizard templates for Elide projects (using elide init or otherwise).
Improved integration with Pkl plugin for manifest editing.
- Injection of fully qualified class names and file paths for entry points.
- Injection of artifact names already declared in the manifest.
- Gutter icon for running entry points and scripts.
- Gutter icon for installing dependencies of all or specific ecosystems.
- Gutter icon for performing individual artifact builds.
Research adding support for non-JVM languages in the IDE (parity with JVM features).
Research adding support for polyglot projects in the IDE (cross-language features).

conditionally approved -- i think #1541 should probably go in first, given that it touches tooling, and structural changes are included here.

I'll wait for #1541 and rebase, there's probably conflicts but I have an idea about where they will be and how to fix
