Importing Existing Rails Application to RubyMine Project

Question

I am currently having unnecessary trouble trying to test out RubyMine. My biggest problem is that I cannot find a way to take a existing rails application on my system and convert it to an official RubyMine application, so that I can experience all of the features of RubyMine.

The only options that are available to me are to either create a new RubyMine rails project, to pull a rails project from a git remote (doesn't work), or to open a previous rails directory (which allows you to edit rails code, but it doesn't recognize this directory as a RubyMine project, so I cannot heap all of the benefits that RubyMine has for rails).

Please help me out, RubyMine seems promising

This is RubyMine 4 btw.

Answer 1

File | Open Directory should create a new RubyMine project from the existing sources. I've just tried with a new Rails app and it recognized it as a Rails project and all the features work just like for the new project created from RubyMine.
