How to configure COLT + IntelliJ IDEA integration

The other day we posted the first version of the plugin for IDEA.

The plugin allows you to work with Flash / AS projects. Support for JavaScript projects we will add next week.

What is this plugin for and what is able to do.

1. Run COLT configuration - launch application in LIVE mode.
2. Quickly create a COLT project using the settings of the current IDEA project.
3. Quickly create and run a run-configuration by the right click on the AS class in the project tree.
4. Management of the life cycle of the live session - the button "green lightning" at the bottom right. Stop, start, status display.
5. Compiling a project through COLT (we are working to speed up the compilation of ActionScript projects, we modify the Adobe compiler code, and this build will be faster than through IDEA).

To install the plugin, download this zip file - and install it (Preferences -> Plugins -> Install plugin from disk) or simply unzip the archive into the “plugins” folder of IDEA.
After restarting IDEA, add a new Run-Configuration COLT to the project - click in the "+" dialog and select COLT.



Click the "New" button. A file with the extension "colt" will be added to your project. Close the dialog (“OK” button) and press the green arrow to run the run configuration.



COLT will be launched with your project. When you first start COLT through IDEA, you will need to create a pair. To do this, enter the numbers that appeared in the “banner” of creating a pair of the COLT window and enter them in the IDEA dialog.
At the subsequent launch such a dialog will not appear. The application will open in Livecoding mode. You can change the code and the changes will be delivered to the working application.



For the first acquaintance we recommend to open the examples that come with COLT.
