I am a big fun of intellij idea. So i integrate defold api with it.

To use Idea with lua and defold your need.
1)Install lua plugin. EmmyLua https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9768-emmylua
2)Edit file associations. Press ctrl + shift + a. Then enter command Edit file associations. To lua language add .*script .*render_script .*gui_script.
3)Download defold api library.
I create a tool that parse defold docs and generate lua files with description.
You need download zip file Releases · d954mas/defold-api-emmylua · GitHub
4)Add library to your project.
File/Project structure/libraries/lua zip library.
5)Use it =)

@d954mas is there any way to set defold editor automatically reload file if it was changed in another program like idea does?

#8

i write scripts, only in idea. Then run game from defold editor. I don’t edit script from defold and from IDEA in same time. If editor not automaticaly reload file, you should make issue for that.

Is there any way to add a warning about using global variables in IDEA? The only thing that I found about it is this issue https://github.com/EmmyLua/IntelliJ-EmmyLua/issues/127 but it’s in Chinese and according to google translate EmmyLua doesn’t support it for now :frowning:

It has luacheck support. Rightclick your code and hit use luacheck. Itll open a prompt and ask you to point towards the luacheck exe

#12

Actually you can even set it as an option. Hit ctrl + alt + s, go to editor/inspections/lua “global name can be local”

#13

This one is just what I’ve looked for, thanks!
