I am looking for a plugin to use in IntelliJ to edit visually a .bpmn file. I installed the JBoss jBPM plugin, but it doesn't associate or open up a *.bpmn2 file. Can someone suggest if this supported in IntelliJ or another plugin is available to visually edit a .bpmn2 file?
JBoss JBPM plugin is an old plugin that covers Jboss proprietary jPDL notation but doesn't cover BPMN. There is also ActiBPM plugin ((https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7429?pr=), but it seems to be dead. Unfortunately there is no better tool for IntelliJ, so you probably remain stuck with your current tools (I'm stuck with Eclipse + Camunda plugin).
Unfortunately, most BPMN 2.0 engines I've seen use slightly different dialects. It means that the file structure is the same. But the details, like executed Java class reference, are provided in a slightly different way, for example by using custom XML namespace that is relevant to the concrete BPMN engine.
I've created a plugin for Flowable BPMN and IntelliJ with navigation-to-code-support:
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/14318-flowable-bpmn-visualizer
And sources are here:
https://github.com/valb3r/flowable-bpmn-intellij-plugin
What I suggest is community participation in expanding this plugin or forking it to support i.e. JBPMN BPMN 2.0 dialect, as all we need to change is XML Parser, and all other parts of the plugin can remain as is

On the page https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/whatsnew/ it is said that Intellij Idea 14 has got a visual diagrams for spring integration.
But I can't find how to visualize my integration xml file.
(right click on file)/Diagrams/Show Diagram... shows a diagram with links between the beans. It is not very usefull.
Spring Integration Patterns plugin is enabled
I have Intellij Idea installed on a computer without access to the internet. May it be the reason why the diagrams are not working properly?
What do you want to see there?
For example.
We have stomp-chat sample: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-integration-samples/tree/master/applications/stomp-chat
And here is a diagram for this config: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-integration-samples/blob/master/applications/stomp-chat/src/main/resources/org/springframework/integration/samples/chat/stomp/server/stomp-server.xml
I'd say that it is OK, however I agree that it would better if I'd provide id attribute for all components.
Of course, Spring Integration Patterns plugin has to be switched on.

"Please make sure the XML file is correctly configured in Spring context setup via Spring facet.
It requires spring-integration-core to be in module dependency of selected XML file."
I had the same problem, and found that in addition to having the Spring facet enabled, and having the spring-integration-core dependency and having the relevant context file set as an application context under the facet, you also need to have just the containing module open. i.e. the stomp-chat spring-integration sample provides the "Spring Integration" diagram option if it is opened from its own pom.xml, however if you open the parent applications\pom.xml then the "Spring Integration" diagram option is not available, regardless of facets etc.
I have the same problem in a project where I use spring integration 2.1.4.
In a newer project I use 4.0.0 and there Intellij Idea offers the option to open the spring integration diagram.
Perhaps that is the reason and you "only" need a newer version of spring integration.
The issue is that the newer versions of Intellij create separate modules per source set by default which somehow ends up conflicting with earlier setups. Using Intellij 2016.1, I instead reimported my project with the following options checked:
Once I did that then (right click on file)/Diagrams/Show Diagram once again gave me the Spring Integration Option.
Yes, click on your Spring Integration context file > Diagrams > Show Diagram... > Spring Integration., but if you haven't this menu follow below:
You should have identified integration context as Spring XML based configurations. Instruction here : Create a Intellij file set
I don't know why, but I had a problem with Spring Integration Diagram when I installed Springirun plugin.
Is there a comprehensive discussion of the approaches of using Google Guice in the context of Eclipse plugins? There is the Peaberry project that targets OSGi containers in general, but this seems not to be used much in production plugin projects, which makes me a bit skeptic to use it (someone correct me if I'm wrong).
The complete Xtext and Xtend wiring is done with Guice. This includes the non-Eclipse relevant parts but also the Eclipse plugins and UI components.
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.
I have a problem with Maven Chronos plugin. Is it possible to tell plugin a mask for name of jmx files to execute?
Thx
It is still not possible to use the chronos plugin to proces files based on a mask. It is possible to select a folder containing tests (.jmx-files), which should be good enough for most cases.
I have a problem with Maven Chronos plugin. Is it possible to tell plugin a mask for name of jmx files to execute?
No, this is currently not supported, the chronos plugin is limited to process only one .jmx/.jtl that you must "hard code" in the POM. But an issue has been logged as MOJO-1460 to enhance the plugin and make it able to process multiple scenario. It's not exactly what you're asking for but it might provide a decent alternative (and there is a patch attached).
Do you know if I can run multiple jmeter tests with any other plugin?
I double checked and it appears that the maven-jmeter-plugin can do that (and even supports includes and excludes if required).
A more recent version of the plugin (using JMeter 2.3) was hosted on Google's code and can now be found on github.
I am experimenting with Groovy Griffon development and I am wondering what IDE to use.
I am trying to use NetBeans 6.5, and I found this post
https://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/entry/notes_on_converting_netbeans_grails
essentially it describes forking the NetBeans trunk and hacking the Grails support; I was hoping for something more lightweight.
Are there any simple tools to create eclipse, netbeans or pom.xml's from Griffin Apps?
Or is it best to use a simple text editor?
There is a NetBeans Griffon plugin already available at http://plugins.netbeans.org/PluginPortal/faces/PluginDetailPage.jsp?pluginid=18664
Griffon apps have some rudimentry hooks already for IDE integration.
First, a .classpath and .project file are generated that mark the expected source and test directories for Eclipse. Both IntelliJ and NetBeans have importers for these eclipse files (and they work, I use them regularly).
Second, Griffon 0.1.1 adds more targets to the parallel build.xml so that more of the common scripts can be used as though they were ant tasks (run-app, compile, debug-app, etc.)
Third, there is some better IDE support in the works form some of the IDE vendors. As mentioned in the article you linked because Griffon is grails derived it is fairly easy to re-purpose existing Grails support. IntelliJ has the only specific tracked feature request I am aware of.
IntelliJ Idea has very good Griffon support.
This question usually comes with a next question:
How to debug Griffon?
Just in case someone still requires a helping hand trying to figure out how to debug Griffon in Eclipse/STS I've written a simple step by step guide to get it done:
http://ivo43.blogspot.com/2012/02/debugging-griffon-in-eclipsests.html
Hope it helps someone someday, :D
PD: I've tried Netbeans and even though it looks great am still with STS, call me a maniac!
