Comma

The Raku IDE plugin for IntellIj IDEA

This is a continuation of the work done by the fine folks at Edument¹ to build and support an IDE for Raku. The standalone mode is off the table for the moment, but running as a plugin in IntelliJ IDEA is fully supported.

It is now built with Gradle IntelliJ Platform Plugin 2.0 and requires IntelliJ IDEA version 2024.2 or later, available for download here (scroll down for the free Community edition).

Install

1. Download comma-2.0.zip from the latest release
2. Open Settings > Plugins in IntelliJ IDEA and find the gear icon, then select Install plugin from disk from the subsequent menu.
3. Restart the IDE
4. Enjoy!

Build

To build, simply:

1. Clone this repo, open it in IntelliJ IDEA
2. Select build > build² (or intellij platform > runIde to run in a sandbox) from the Gradle target options (look for the elephant on the left side of the IDEA window).
3. Enjoy! And please report any issues you have to the issue tracker here.
