IntelliJ itself is the greatest IDE I've ever used. But one important feature, the IDE doesn't provide by itself: Import and export Run Configurations. And that's what this plugin is developed for.
There are two ways to import configurations into your project.
- Click Tools → RunConf Handler → Import Run Confgurations and choose the folder which contains your configurations.
- You now see the new configurations which will be imported. Note that if an extension with the same name and the same type already exists, the extension will be skipped.
- Press Import.
- The configurations are now imported and you can start using them.
- Open the Settings: File → Settings → RunConf Handler.
- Now enable the checkbox and choose the path you'd like to load your configurations from, everytime the project is reopened.
- The new configurations, will now be imported each time, the IDE starts.
To export all project run configurations, simply use the export functionality:
- Click Tools → RunConf Handler → Export Run Confgurations and choose the folder where you'd like to export your configurations to.
- In the list at the bottom of the dialog, you see all configurations which will be exported.
- Press Export.
