This question may sound silly for you, but I have been searching the Internet for a while and couldn't find the answer. How can I open SBT Tool Window in Intellij (scala and SBT plugins obviously installed)?
In Intellij 2018, under Preferences - Build, Execution, Deployment - Build Tools - sbt , check " Use sbt shell for build and import (requires sbt 0.13. 5+) ". Then restart Intellij. The sbt shell tool window tab will appear in the bottom pane (if not, select it from View - Tool Windows - sbt shell ).
IntelliJ plugin can be found here http://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/SCA/Scala+Plugin+for+IntelliJ+IDEA or can be installed directoly from within the IDE using Settings -> Plugins dialog. Afterwards one can just do File -> New Project -> Scala -> SBT based. IntelliJ will generate basic build.
IntelliJ now allows you to create a run configuration for an SBT task. You create the Run Configuration by : choosing "Edit configurations" from the "Run" menu (or the toolbar popup) click the "+" button to add a configuration and select "SBT Task" as the type of configuration you want to make.
In Menu: View -> Tool Windows
there should be two entries:
The first you can use to refresh IDEA project structure from SBT and view dependencies.
The second gives you a console where you can run sbt
commands.
Update:
As Justin already aded:
As of IntelliJ IDEA 2017.1 Build #IC-171.3780.52 there is a new and (imho) better way:
(If you are working with an SBT project, that is)
When you open the SBT Tool Window, you will find a new scala terminal icon:
This will open an sbt console session with your sbt project import settings.
One major benefit is that you will actually (finally) get links to your code lines for compiler warnings and errors.
To be able to open SBT Console
from View
-> Tool Windows
you first need to install the plugin required for it.
You can find the SBT plugin by searching for it under Settings
-> Plugins
-> Browse repositories
