Hi everyone,

I decided to work on several Up-For-Grabs tasks from the kotlin idea plugin tracker. I realised that they require changes in both idea-plugin and kotlin repositories.
Could anyone please explain how I can use artefacts from my local kotlin branch in the plugin? I have built libs from prepare/ide-plugin-dependencies/ folder but I don't know how to use them in the plugin. I tried publish and publishToMavenLocal tasks, but it seems that they don't publish kotlin-*-for-ide jars to the repo.
I also found plugins/kotlin/util/project-model-updater script which updates the plugin dependencies but it still need them to published.

Thank you

Hey
• clone intellij repo into /path/to/kotlin/intellij and checkout branch kt-master in it
• run following gradle task to publish compiler classes as IDE dependencies

./gradlew publishIdeArtifacts :prepare:ide-plugin-dependencies:kotlin-dist-for-ide:publish -Ppublish.ide.plugin.dependencies=true -PdeployVersion=1.9.255 -Pbuild.number=1.9.255

• open intellij repo in IDE

Note that if you change something in both repos at the same time then you need to create MR in intellij repo to kt-master branch, not master

Also you can use Kotlin Coop: Publish compiler-for-ide JARs run configuration in intellij repo instead of manual running gradle

It helped. I didn't know about kt-master branch. Thank you!
