Export a list of IntelliJ plugins

Question

One feature I miss from Eclipse is exporting a list of installed plugins; I haven't been able to find a way to do this in IntelliJ.

For developers who need to use different machines (including different OSs) this would be helpful. Other than the availables.xml and disabled_plugins.txt is there any other way to get a list of what plugins are installed and active? Having to use two files to deduce the answers is a bit cumbersome.

Answer 1

Open the settings, go to plugins, filter them by "Enabled", then select the entire list (CTRL+A would work), and copy them with CTRL+C.

This will give you a nice list of enabled plugins along with their versions. Something like:

BashSupport (1.6.13.182)
Behat Support (182.4129.45)
Blade Support (182.4129.45)
Codeception Framework (182.4129.45)
CoffeeScript (182.4129.45)
Command Line Tool Support (182.4129.45)
[...]
