I recently switched from eclipse and netbeans to intellij, but I have also liferay stuff to do and intelliJ seems to lack a decent liferay integration.
Does someone know how to use intelliJ for that, with as much of intelliJs comfort as possible :-/
As the themes are no simple java project the import stuff doesn’t seem to recognize it properly…
You could look into the maven integration for Liferay (depending on the version of Liferay you’re using – the more recent the version, the better the maven integration) and just import a pure maven project. The layout of this differs a bit from the usual ant-based SDK.
But of course you can also use the pure Ant buildfiles you find in the plugins sdk. As there’s typically no java in a theme, it doesn’t make a lot of differences.
Not wanting to start IDE wars here, but you also might consider Liferay IDE (or Developer Studio, it’s EE-Version) for theme-related development. As there’s no Java development done in themes, the conflict of changing tools should be handleable. I wouldn’t want to work in both IDEs for Java development again (been there, done that), but for themes I can imagine just going the easy route – it’s mainly CSS that you edit.
