I'm completely new to development using Play or IntelliJ for that matter. I've created a simple HelloWorld application using Activator, and this is an sbt
project.
I've been trying to import this to IntelliJ and this is the screen I'm stuck at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/we1a4a3184sojvb/Screenshot%202014-07-24%2016.57.11.png
In almost all tutorials I've been through online, I've seen people using an sbt
option on the import screen. I've installed the SBT plugin as well, but that hasn't helped. I've restarted IntelliJ several times to no avail.
Where am I going wrong?
I'm running 13.1.4
with the SBT
plugin installed.
After a series of struggles, I must say something weird solved this problem – moving to IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate. That has built in Play application support and can run/debug/test the application out of the box, which is very handy.
All I can say after this experience was that JetBrains wants you to upgrade to Ultimate if you want things to work right out of the box.
I'm sure there are ways to get this working with CE also, but I wasn't successful with that.
