# Kotlin serialization IDEA plugin
|
||||
# Kotlinx serialization compiler plugin
|
||||
|
||||
Kotlin serialization plugin consists of three parts: a compiler plugin, an IntelliJ plugin and a runtime library.
|
||||
This is the folder with common source for all plugins, IDEA plugin is built from here. Gradle and Maven plugins can be found in `libraries` folder.
|
||||
This folder contains compiler plugin counterpart to [kotlinx.serialization](https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization) library:
|
||||
source code for all compiler-related plugin parts, including code resolution, code generation, diagnostics, and tests.
|
||||
Gradle and Maven plugins can be found in the `libraries` folder.
|
||||
The IntelliJ IDEA part (which contains only specific inspections and quickfixes) is located
|
||||
[inside the Kotlin IDEA plugin in the IntelliJ Community monorepo](https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/tree/master/plugins/kotlin/compiler-plugins/kotlinx-serialization).
|
||||
|
||||
## Building and usage
|
||||
## Brief overview
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites:
|
||||
Before all, follow the instructions from root README.md to download dependencies and build Kotlin compiler. (`./gradlew dist`)
|
||||
Plugin consists of five parts:
|
||||
|
||||
**Plugin works only with IntelliJIDEA 2017.2 and higher.**
|
||||
1.`backend` — responsible for IR code generation as well as old JVM & JS compiler backends (to be removed in the future).
|
||||
2. `k1` — Code resolution and diagnostics for the Kotlin frontend.
|
||||
3. `k2` — Code resolution and diagnostics for the new K2 Kotlin compiler.
|
||||
4. `cli` — extension points that allow the plugin to be loaded with `-Xplugin` Kotlin CLI compiler argument.
|
||||
5. `common` — common declarations for other parts.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you have latest dev version of Kotlin plugin installed.
|
||||
Tests and test data are common for all parts and located directly in this module (see `testData` and `tests-gen` folders).
|
||||
|
||||
### With gradle:
|
||||
## Building and contributing
|
||||
|
||||
Run `./gradlew :kotlinx-serialization-compiler-plugin:dist`.
|
||||
In IDEA, open `Settings - Plugins - Install plugin from disk...` and choose `$kotlin_root/dist/artifacts/Serialization/lib/kotlinx-serialization-compiler-plugin.jar`
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
### From within IDE (for development):
|
||||
Before all, it is recommended to read root `README.md` and ensure you have all the necessary things installed (you don't need JDK6 to work with this plugin).
|
||||
|
||||
Run `./gradlew runIde` You'll get a fresh copy of IDEA with Kotlin and Kotlin-serialization plugins built from sources.
|
||||
### Installing locally
|
||||
|
||||
## Building gradle plugin
|
||||
Just run `./gradlew dist install` to get a fresh Kotlin compiler and kotlinx.serialization plugin in your Maven local with `1.x.255-SNAPSHOT` versions.
|
||||
Installing the serialization plugin alone is not recommended, as it may not be binary compatible with the latest published version of Kotlin.
|
||||
|
||||
Run `./gradlew :kotlinx-gradle-serialization-plugin:install`
|
||||
### Working with tests
|
||||
|
||||
## Building maven plugin
|
||||
As in most Kotlin project modules, tests are generated based on test data.
|
||||
Tests are located in `test-gen` folder and can be run using the green arrow on the IDE gutter or with standard
|
||||
`./gradlew :kotlinx-serialization-compiler-plugin:test` task.
|
||||
To add a new test, add an appropriate file to `testData` folder and then re-generate tests with `./gradlew :kotlinx-serialization-compiler-plugin:generateTests`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Building maven plugin
|
||||
|
||||
A Gradle plugin is installed during project-wide `./gradlew dist install`. In rare cases when you need a snapshot Maven plugin, follow these steps:
|
||||
Make all prerequisites from `$kotlin_root/libraries/README.md` for Maven projects. Go to `$kotlin_root/libraries/tools/kotlin-maven-serialization`. Run `mvn install`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Contributing
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the common [Kotlin's contribution guidelines](../../docs/contributing.md).
|
||||
In general, create an issue in Kotlin's YouTrack or [kotlinx.serialization's GitHub](https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization/issues/new/choose) to discuss suggested changes beforehand.
|
||||
|
||||
Make all prerequisites from libraries' README.md for Maven projects. Go to `$kotlin_root/libraries/tools/kotlin-maven-serialization`. Run `mvn install`
