Maven IntelliJ Idea Project

We have learned that how to create a simple java project in maven and also how to convert it to support eclipse IDE. Sometimes developers environment consist of IntelliJ IDE instead of eclipse.

So, lets learn about converting it to support IntelliJ also.

$ mvn idea:idea

1) Create maven project

$ mvn archetype:generate 
		-DgroupId=com.howtodoinjava 
		-DartifactId=intelliJDemo
		-DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart 
		-DinteractiveMode=false

2) IntelliJ Support

$ mvn idea:idea

Above command will download the project plugins for IntelliJ. And, above command will also create the project file (.ipr), module file (.iml) and workspace file (.iws).

Happy Learning !!
