Importing Bisq into IntelliJ IDEA

Most Bisq contributors use IDEA for development. The following instructions have been tested on IDEA 2021.3.

  1. Follow instructions in build.md to clone and build Bisq at the command line
  2. Open IDEA
  3. If you are inside a loaded Project, go to File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors, else go to Customize -> All settings... -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors, and check the Enable annotation processing to enable processing of Lombok annotations (Lombok plugin installed by default since v2020.3)
  4. Go to File -> New -> Project from Existing Sources... (or Projects -> Open from welcome screen) and select the main Bisq folder to automatically load the related Gradle project
  5. If you did not yet setup JDK11 in IntelliJ, go to File -> Project Structure -> Project and set SDK to your JDK11 folder
  6. Select JDK11 for Gradle as well: go to File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Build Tools -> Gradle and select the JDK11 location in Gradle JVM field
  7. Run Build -> Build Project, the process should complete correctly
  8. Go to Run > Edit Configurations... -> Plus (+) icon on the top left -> Application and fill the requested fields as shown below, where CLI arguments should be taken from those listed in dev-setup.md (Alice instance in the example):

  1. You should now be able to run Bisq by clicking on the Play button or via Run -> Run 'Bisq Desktop'
  2. Use Run -> Debug 'Bisq Desktop' to debug the application and execute breakpoints

TIP: If you encounter compilation errors in IDEA related to the protobuf.* classes, it probably is because you didn't build Bisq at the command line as instructed above. You need to run the generateProto task in the other project. You can do this via the Gradle tool window in IDEA, or you can do it the command line with ./gradlew :other:generateProto. After this, run Build -> Build Project again, and verify it completes successfully.

If this does not solve the issue, try to execute ./gradlew clean and then rebuild the project again.
