A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I’m working on a project in IntelliJ but it keeps doing background operations when I’m editing a build.gradle.kts file. Is is possible to disable this behavior so we could hit this background process only after we save the file?

For groovy syntax, turning off auto-import in gradle settings does it. Ide then prompts when there's a change to build.gradle file and you control when it does import.

Hopefully works same for kts variation but I don't use kotlin dsl so can't confirm that.

Thanks, it looks like disabling gradle auto-import works for me. Unfortunately the power save mode don’t.
