I have not managed to compile/debug etc. the current Play Framework (2.3.7) with the Community Edition 14 of IntelliJ. Neither by importing the project, nor by using gen-idea .
Is there any way to get it run or is there just no way to use it ?
Paying > 400 bucks for just this feature is simply too much.
Thanks.
Usually I compile and run through console: activator -> compile/run
, but you can compile in Intellij too by running Build -> Make Project
, but I never tried running Play in Intellij though.
And for debugging, I run command activator -jvm-debug 9999 run
as said in documentation. Then I set up remote debug configuration in Intellij.
