Welcome to the IntelliJ TMC plugin wiki!

To install the plugin, go to File -> Settings -> Plugins And click Browser repositories at the bottom. Then search for tmc, and you'll find TMC Plugin for IntelliJ. Click Install, wait a bit while it downloads and installs it, and restart the IDE by pressing the Restart IntelliJ IDEA button or at your own leisure later.

After having restarted IntelliJ, the plugin should be active. You'll find the TMC menu at the top bar. Be sure to set your username, password and server correctly. For example if you're doing the MOOC courses, the server is https://tmc.mooc.fi/mooc and if you're doing the Helsinki University courses, the server is https://tmc.mooc.fi.

A couple of important notes:

• When you open an exercise through the project view, note that IntelliJ needs to import it as an IDEA project first. You can click through the windows and let the default settings do their job.
• However, if the exercise is a Maven project (for example the Web server programming MOOC has Maven projects as exercises), then you need to choose the Maven option in the first window, when it first gives you two options: Create project from existing sources and Import project from external model. Here choose the latter one (external model) and then choose Maven. Other than that, you can click through the windows again.
• Local TMC tests might not work at the moment at least in Windows. You can submit the exercise to the server though to see the results.
