I have made all the configurations but Pycharm is not giving any suggestions. please help
In my case the solution is to reset the settings to default.
"From the main menu, select File | Manage IDE Settings | Restore Default Settings.Alternatively, press Shift twice and type Restore default settings."
IDEA version : 2019.3.1 x64
I know Settings | Code Style | Java | Imports,
but not found where close;
I don't like idea auto change original import order.
how to close IDEA self-assertion function.Thanks!
in Settings > General > Auto Import uncheck Optimize imports on the fly. Also while reformatting, you may disable it by unchecking Optimize Imports in Reformat Code Dialog.
The optimization of imports seems to be configured in Editor | General | Auto Import. This however doesn't seem to allow to control how imports are grouped (separated with blank lines based on common prefix in package name) and sorted (I'd like to turn grouoping off while still sorting imports automatically and removing unused imports).
I'm using IntelliJ IDEA 2018.3.4 (Community Edition) von Ubuntu 18.10.
In order to remove blank lines select the and remove by clicking on "-" in the Import Layout. Get here by Preferences > Editor > Code Style > Java > Imports
How do I locate the current file in the project structure? (Similar to Visual Studio's Ctrl + Alt + L). What is the name of the operation (so I can define it in the keymap)
Alt + F1 (or Alt + Shift + 1 for linux) almost does what you want. You need to hit Enter afterwards as IDEA allows multiple "targets" for navigation (project structure, file structure etc).
(Note you can also set AutoScroll to Source and AutoScroll from source using the two "boxes with arrows" buttons above the project structure view but this can get annoying when it shoves you into the JDK source because you followed a reference to java.io.File.
The keymap defines it as Select current file or symbol in any view.
You can also click the little cross hairs button in the projects pane:
Note that the symbol won't be shown if Always Select Opened File (previously Autoscroll from Source) option is enabled.
Click the gear in the Project tool window and then Always Select Opened File (previously Autoscroll From Source)
"Select in project View"
Little to no memorization required, reusable for every action in Intellij:
Use Find Action:
Press Shift + cmd + A (Pretty sure
it's Shift + Ctrl + A for Windows
and Linux)
Type select in...
Select Select in Project View in the suggestion list
Do following will select your file automatically all time.
Right click on Project/Packages area > Autoscroll to Source.
Right click on Project/Packages area > Autoscroll from Source.
Please find image below.
I am using IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2 Ultimate.
Alt+F1, then press 1
And make it autoscrollable from source without hitting shortcuts every time How to make Scroll From Source feature always enabled?
There is no direct shortcut for such operation in IntelliJ IDEA 14 but you can install the plugin and set it the keyboard shortcut to the function that called "Scroll From Source" in keymap settings.
In addition to the other options, in at least IntelliJ IDEA 2017 Ultimate, WebStorm 2020.2, and probably a ton of other versions, you can do it in a single shortcut.
Edit preferences, search for Select in Project View, and under Keymap, view the mapped shortcut or map one of your choice.
On the Mac, Ctrl + Option + L is not already used, and is the same shortcut as Visual Studio for Windows uses natively (Ctrl + Alt + L, so that could be a good choice.
Open the project explorer ( default left side )
Click on the tiny wheel setting button
Mark Auto scroll from source option.
Boom! You are done.
If you are using Mac(OSX)
Based on the current tab, to select the file on project is : FN + OPTION + F1
Then in the popup you can Select in: Project View > Select In: Project
in PyCharm 2021 this hotkey named Select File In Project View
In Intellij Idea Community edition 2020.1 :
Right click on project header
Select 'Always Select Opened File'
In 2023 there is still no default shortcut for locating the current file in the Project view. However it is easy to set up a custom shortcut for it.
Open Settings, go to Keymap and search for "Select file in project view". It should be in the "Other" section and should have a crosshair icon. Right click on it and select "Add keyboard shortcut". I set it up to CTRL + SHIFT + L, but of course any unmapped key combination will work.
Enjoy! For me this is a very often used feature and having a shortcut for it is a significant productivity boost.
I remember seeing in either IntelliJ or Eclipse the setting to reformat (cleanup) files whenever they are saved. How do I find it (didn't find it in the settings)
This solution worked better for me:
Make a macro (I used Organize Imports, Format Code, Save All)
Assign it a keystroke (I overrode Ctrl+S)
Note: You will have to check the box "Do not show this message again" the first time for the organized imports, but it works as expected after that.
Step-by-step for IntelliJ 10.0:
Code -> "Optimize Imports...", if a dialogue box appears, check the box that says "Do not show this message again.", then click "Run".
Tools -> "Start Macro Recording"
Code -> "Optimize Imports..."
Code -> "Reformat Code..."
File -> "Save all"
Tools -> "Stop Macro Recording"
Name the macro (something like "formatted save")
In File -> Settings -> Keymap, select your macro located at "Main Menu -> Tools -> "formatted save"
Click "Add Keyboard Shortcut", then perform the keystroke you want. If you choose Ctrl+S like me, it will ask you what to do with the previous Ctrl+S shortcut. Remove it. You can always reassign it later if you want.
Enjoy!
For IntelliJ 11, replace
step 2. with: Edit -> Macros -> "Start Macro Recording"
step 6. with: Edit -> Macros -> "Stop Macro Recording"
Everything else remains the same.
IntelliJ 12
8. The Preferences contain the Keymap settings. Use the input field to filter the content, as shown in the screenshot.
I suggest the save actions plugin. It also supports optimize imports and rearrange code.
Works well in combination with the eclipse formatter plugin.
Search and activate the plugin:
Configure it:
Edit: it seems like it the recent version of Intellij the save action plugin is triggered by the automatic Intellij save. This can be quite annoying when it hits while still editing.
This github issue of the plugin gives a hint to some possible solutions:
https://github.com/dubreuia/intellij-plugin-save-actions/issues/63
I actually tried to assign reformat to Ctrl+S and it worked fine - saving is done automatically now.
Below is Neil's answer updated.
IntelliJ 13 Steps:
Code -> Reformat Code
Edit -> Macros -> Start Macro Recording
Code -> Reformat Code
File -> Save all
Edit -> Macros -> Stop Macro Recording
Name the macro (something like "formatted save")
File -> Settings -> Keymap
Right click on the macro. Add Keyboard Shortcut. Set the keyboard shortcut to Control + S.
IntelliJ will inform you of a hotkey conflict. Select "remove" to remove other assignments.
I set it to automatically clean up on check-in, which is usually good enough for me. If something is too ugly, I'll just hit the shortcut (Ctrl-Alt-L, Return). And I see they have an option for auto-formatting pasted code, although I've never used that.
If you have InteliJ Idea Community 2018.2 and above the steps are as fallows:
In the top menu you click: Edit > Macros > Start Macro Recordings
(you'll see a window lower right corner of your screen confirming
that macros are being recorded)
In the top menu you click: Code >
Reformat Code (you'll see the option being selected in the lower
right corner)
In the top menu you click: Code > Optimize Imports
(you'll see the option being selected in the lower right corner)
In the top menu you click: File > Save All
In the top menu you click: Edit > Macros > Stop Macro Recording
You name the macro: "Format Code, Organize Imports, Save"
In the top menu you clock: File > Settings. In the settings windows you click Keymap
In the search box on the right you search "save". You'll find Save All (Ctrl+S). Right click on it and select "Remove Ctrl+S"
Remove your search text from the box, press on the Collapse All button (Second button from the top left)
Go to macros, press on the arrow to expand your macros, find your saved macro and right click on it. Select Add Keyboard Shortcut, and press Ctrl+S and okay.
Restart your IDE and try it.
I know what you're going to say, the guys before me wrote the same thing. But I got confused using the steps above this post, and I wanted to write a dumb down version for people who have the latest version of the IDE.
Ctrl + Alt + L is format file (includes the two below)
Ctrl + Alt + O is optimize imports
Ctrl + Alt + I will fix indentation on a particular line
I usually run Ctrl + Alt + L a few times before committing my work. I'd rather it do the cleanup/reformatting at my command instead of automatically.
Rejoice! In IDEA 2021.2 there is finally "File->Settings->Tools->Actions on Save" where you can select "Reformat code", "Optimize imports", "Rearrange code", "Run code cleanup", "Run eslint --fix" etc.
If you're developing in Flutter, there's a new experimental option as of 5/1/2018 that allows you to format code on save.
I wound up rebinding the Reformat code... action to Ctrl-S, replacing the default binding for Save All.
It may sound crazy at first, but IntelliJ seems to save on virtually every action: running tests, building the project, even when closing an editor tab. I have a habit of hitting Ctrl-S pretty often, so this actually works quite well for me. It's certainly easier to type than the default bind for reformatting.
IntellIJ 14 && 15: When you are checking in code in Commit changes dialog, tick the Reformat code checkbox, then IntelliJ will reformatting all the code that you are checking in.

For PyCharm/IntelliJ IDEA:
Install black.
$ pip install black
Locate your black installation folder.
On macOS / Linux / BSD:
$ which black
/usr/local/bin/black # possible location
On Windows:
$ where black
%LocalAppData%\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts\black.exe # possible location
Note that if you are using a virtual environment detected by PyCharm, this is an unneeded step. In this case the path to black is $PyInterpreterDirectory$/black.
Open External tools in PyCharm/IntelliJ IDEA
On macOS: PyCharm -> Preferences -> Tools -> External Tools
On Windows / Linux / BSD: File -> Settings -> Tools -> External Tools
Click the + icon to add a new external tool with the following values:
Name: Black
Description: Black is the uncompromising Python code formatter.
Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
Arguments: "$FilePath$"
Format the currently opened file by selecting Tools -> External Tools -> black.
Alternatively, you can set a keyboard shortcut by navigating to Preferences or Settings -> Keymap -> External Tools -> External Tools - Black.
Optionally, run Black on every file save:
Make sure you have the File Watchers plugin installed.
Go to Preferences or Settings -> Tools -> File Watchers and click + to add a new watcher:
Name: Black
File type: Python
Scope: Project Files
Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
Arguments: $FilePath$
Output paths to refresh: $FilePath$
Working directory: $ProjectFileDir$
Uncheck “Auto-save edited files to trigger the watcher” in Advanced Options
To format Python files with Black, I followed this guide, which also uses File Watcher:
https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/editor_integration.html
Since version 2020.1, you can activate Run on save for files directly in the Preferences of the Prettier plugin:
I thought there was something like that in IntelliJ, but I can't find it. The only clean-up that happens at save is that white space at the ends of lines is removed. I thought I had to specify that behavior at one point, but I don't see anything related at this point.
If it's about Prettier, just use a File Watcher :
references => Tools => File Watchers => click + to add a new watcher => Prettier
