Importing Bisq into IntelliJ IDEA

Most Bisq contributors use IDEA for development. The following instructions have been tested on IDEA 2019.2.

  1. Follow the instructions in build.md to clone and build Bisq at the command line.
  2. Open IDEA
  3. Go to Preferences->Plugins (File->Settings, Plugins for Windows). Search for and install the Lombok plugin. When prompted, do not restart IDEA.
  4. Go to Preferences->Build, Execution, Deployment->Compiler->Annotation Processors and check the Enable annotation processing option (to enable processing of Lombok annotations)
  5. Restart IDEA
  6. Go to Import Project, select the settings.gradle file and click Open
  7. In the Import Project from Gradle screen, check the Use auto-import option and click OK
  8. When prompted whether to overwrite the existing .idea directory, click Yes (This step was not required with 2019.2 but is kept here in case you are running an older version)
  9. 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)
  10. If you did not yet setup JDK10 in IntelliJ, Go to File->Project Structure->Project and under the Project SDK option locate your JAVA_HOME folder, then in Project language level beneath select 10 - .... (JDK10 is no longer supported but you can still download it from the archive)
  11. Select JDK 10 for gradle as well. Go to Preferences->Build, Execution, Deployment->Build Tools->Gradle and select the JDK10 location for Gradle JVM
  12. 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 protobuf.* classes, 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.
