After sources of kotlin IDE plugin moved to idea-community repository it's impossible to run kotlinIDE plugin form kotlin repo only
If you really want to test plugin you need to:
• Clone kotlin repo to, let's say,
kotlin
directory
• Clone intellij-community:
git clone <https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin.git>
cd kotlin
git clone <https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community.git> --branch kt-212-master --single-branch intellij
• Open Intellij community proejct and run predefined run configuration named
Publish compiler-for-ide jars
• Now you can build IDEA from sources and run
IDEA configuration, which runs debug idea with kotlin plugin built against compiler from sources from
kotlin
directory and IDE plugin sources from
kotlin/intellij/plugins/kotlin
directory
