3 likes854 views
Intellij IDEA is a Java IDE that supports Scala. It has two editions and uses a project/module structure to organize code. Key features include code completion, navigation, refactoring, version control integration with Git/GitHub, and support for build tools like SBT. The document provides tips on setting preferences and keymaps, importing and working with SBT projects, debugging, and improving performance for large codebases.

- 7. Choose a Suitable Keymap is Important Mac OS X 10.5+ : If you are using IntelliJ IDEA only on Mac OS, we recommend choosing the schema named “Mac OS X 10.5+”. Mac OS X : The default “Mac OS X” schema is recommended if you use IntelliJ IDEA on other platforms too as the bindings are more alike to the default Windows/Linux schema. I use Mac OS X keymap in multi-platforms.
- 9. New Project in Intellij IDEA(without SBT) ● Just Play Scala ! ● New Project Wizard ○ File | New | Project... ■ Java - Add Scala Libraries ■ Scala - IDEA-based Scala project
- 10. New / Import Project in Intellij IDEA(with SBT) ● Many Scala project use SBT. ● New Project Wizard ○ File | New | Project... ■ SBT-based Scala project ● Import Project Wizard ○ File | New | Project from Existing Sources... ■ choose a folder(existing SBT project) ● Import project from external model (SBT/Gradle/Maven)
- 11. Working with SBT ● Tool Windows ○ Project ○ SBT ○ SBT Shell ● Attach debugger to SBT Shell
- 12. Working with Scala Worksheet ● REPL mode in Intellij IDEA ● How about Ammonite support ? ○ Look like there will be something in 2017.3(public preview) ○ Stay tuned ! (github, youtrack)
- 13. Desugar Scala ● Code | Desugar Scala code ... ● Show Diff
- 14. Work with Git / Github ● Import Git / Github project ○ Command line ■ $ git clone ■ File | New | Project from Existing Sources... ■ Import SBT project ○ User interface ■ File | New | Project from Version Control | Github ■ SBT project detected: Import SBT project
- 15. Work with Git / Github ● Mutiple Version Control in the same Project ○ Mutiple git repo ○ Mix with different version control

- 27. Performance ● Intellij IDEA's cache is sometimes not quite right enough to cause performance issue. ○ Rebuild cache ■ File | Invalidate Caches / Restart ● Too many Scala classes may cause very slow editor response ○ Turn off some inspections of Scala ■ Preferences | Editor | Inspections | Scala Category
