# OpenIDE project

The OpenIDE project is largely based on the OpenIDE Community Edition by JetBrains. You can learn more about the project at https://openide.ru.

This repository is the open-source part of the JetBrains IDEs codebase.
It also serves as the basis for [IntelliJ Platform development](https://www.jetbrains.com/opensource/idea). 

These instructions will help you build and run open source parts of OpenIDE.

The following conventions will be used to refer to directories on your machine:
* `<USER_HOME>` is your OS user's home directory.
* `<IDEA_HOME>` is the root directory for the **OpenIDE source code**.

## Getting the Source Code

This section will guide you through getting the project sources and help avoid common issues in git config and other steps before opening it in the IDE.

#### Prerequisites
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/) installed
- ~2GB free disk space
- Install [OpenIDE 2023.2](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download) or higher.
- For **Windows** set these git config to avoid common issues during cloning:
  ```
  git config --global core.longpaths true
  git config --global core.autocrlf input
  ```

#### Clone Main Repository

OpenIDE open source repository is available from the [Gitflic repository](https://gitflic.ru/project/openide/openide), which can be cloned or downloaded as a zip file (based on a branch) into `<IDEA_HOME>`.

You can [clone this project](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/manage-projects-hosted-on-github.html#clone-from-GitHub) directly using OpenIDE. 

Alternatively, follow the steps below in a terminal:

   ```
   git clone https://gitflic.ru/project/openide/openide.git
   cd openide
   ```

> [!TIP]
> - **For faster download**: If the complete repository history isn't needed, create [shallow clone](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-clone#Documentation/git-clone.txt---depthdepth)
> To download only the latest revision of the repository,  add `--depth 1` option after `clone`.
> - Cloning in OpenIDE also supports creating shallow clone.

#### Get Android Modules
OpenIDE requires additional Android modules from separate Git repositories.

Run the following script from project root `<IDEA_HOME>` to get the required modules:
- Linux/macOS: `./getPlugins.sh`
- Windows: `getPlugins.bat`

> [!IMPORTANT]
>
>  Always `git checkout` the `openide` and `android` Git repositories to the same branches/tags.

## Building OpenIDE
These instructions will help you build OpenIDE from source code, which is the basis for IntelliJ Platform development.
OpenIDE '**2024.3**' or newer is required.

### Opening the OpenIDE Source Code in the IDE
Using the latest OpenIDE, click '**File | Open**', select the `<IDEA_HOME>` directory.
If OpenIDE displays a message about a missing or out-of-date required plugin (e.g. Kotlin),
[enable, upgrade, or install that plugin](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/managing-plugins.html) and restart OpenIDE.


### Build Configuration Steps
1. **JDK Setup**

- Use JetBrains Runtime 21 (without JCEF) to compile
  - IDE will prompt to download it on the first build
> [!IMPORTANT]
>
> JetBrains Runtime **without** JCEF is required. If `jbr-21` SDK points to JCEF version, change it to the non-JCEF version:
> - Add `idea.is.internal=true` to `idea.properties` and restart the IDE.
> - Go to '**Project Structure | SDKs**'
> - Click 'Browse' → 'Download...'
> - Select version 21 and vendor 'JetBrains Runtime'
> - To confirm if the JDK is correct, navigate to the SDK page with jbr-21 selected. Search for `jcef`, it should **_NOT_** yield a result.

2. **Maven Configuration** : If the **Maven** plugin is disabled, [add the path variable](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/absolute-path-variables.html) "**MAVEN_REPOSITORY**" pointing to `<USER_HOME>/.m2/repository` directory.

3. **Memory Settings**
  - Ensure a minimum **8GB** RAM on your computer.
  - With the minimum RAM, disable "**Compile independent modules in parallel**" in '**Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Compiler**'.
  - With notably higher available RAM, Increase "**User-local heap size**" to `3000`.


### Building the OpenIDE Application from Source

**To build OpenIDE from source**, choose '**Build | Build Project**' from the main menu.

**To build installation packages**, run the [installers.cmd](installers.cmd) script in `<IDEA_HOME>` directory. `installers.cmd` will work on both Windows and Unix systems.
Options to build installers are passed as system properties to `installers.cmd` command.
You may find the list of available properties in [BuildOptions.kt](platform/build-scripts/src/org/jetbrains/intellij/build/BuildOptions.kt)

Installer build examples:
```bash
# Build installers only for current operating system:
./installers.cmd -Dintellij.build.target.os=current
```
```bash
# Build source code _incrementally_ (do not build what was already built before):
./installers.cmd -Dintellij.build.incremental.compilation=true
```

> [!TIP]
> 
> The `installers.cmd` is used to run [OpenSourceCommunityInstallersBuildTarget](build/src/OpenSourceCommunityInstallersBuildTarget.kt) from the command line.
> You can also call it directly from IDEA, using run configuration `Build OpenIDE Installers (current OS)`.


#### Dockerized Build Environment
To build installation packages inside a Docker container with preinstalled dependencies and tools, run the following command in `<IDEA_HOME>` directory (on Windows, use PowerShell):
```bash
docker run --rm -it --user "$(id -u)" --volume "${PWD}:/community" "$(docker build --quiet . --target intellij_idea)"
```
> [!NOTE]
> 
> Please remember to specify the `--user "$(id -u)"` argument for the container's user to match the host's user.
> This prevents issues with permissions for the checked-out repository, the build output, and the mounted Maven cache, if any.
> 
To reuse the existing Maven cache from the host system, add the following option to `docker run` command:
`--volume "$HOME/.m2:/home/ide_builder/.m2"`

---
## Running OpenIDE
To run the OpenIDE that was built from source, choose '**Run | Run**' from the main menu. This will use the preconfigured run configuration `IDEA`.

To run tests on the build, apply these settings to the '**Run | Edit Configurations... | Templates | JUnit**' configuration tab:
* Working dir: `<IDEA_HOME>/bin`
* VM options:  `-ea`


#### Running OpenIDE in CI/CD environment

To run tests outside of OpenIDE, run the `tests.cmd` command in `<IDEA_HOME>` directory.`tests.cmd` can be used in both Windows and Unix systems.
Options to run tests are passed as system properties to `tests.cmd` command.
You may find the list of available properties in [TestingOptions.kt](platform/build-scripts/src/org/jetbrains/intellij/build/TestingOptions.kt)

```bash
# Build source code _incrementally_ (do not build what was already built before): `
./tests.cmd -Dintellij.build.incremental.compilation=true
```
```bash
#Run a specific test: 
./tests.cmd -Dintellij.build.test.patterns=com.intellij.util.ArrayUtilTest
```

`tests.cmd` is used just to run [CommunityRunTestsBuildTarget](build/src/CommunityRunTestsBuildTarget.kt) from the command line.
You can also call it directly from IDEA, see run configuration `tests` for an example.
