Factorio Forums

I've written a plugin for Intellij, that downloads and parses the Factorio Lua API and adds autocompletion for it.
The factorio Version can be selected in the Settings under `Settings > Languages & Frameworks > Factorio Autocompletion`.
As plugin-dependency, emmyLua is required for the basic LUA integration.

Autocompletion will be added to every LUA file, when activated.
Also a different autocompletion is used for prototype definition.
The info.json has automatically the correct json-schema loaded, so it has autocompletion and error checks.

Source-Code: https://github.com/knoxfighter/intellij ... completion
Plugin-Page: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13 ... pi-support

Implemented Features:

• info.json has a schema
• Prototype definitions (data:extend) autocompletion
• Autocompletion for require command (load default LUA libraries, e.g. `mod-gui`)
• Autocomplete Prototypes for tables (e.g. `LuaForce.recipe[String]LuaRecipe`)
• Autocomplete Prototypes in data.raw table.

Planned features:

• Creation of Projects/Files
• Autocompletion for LocalizedStrings (general translation tools)

Update 1.1.0:

Added:

• JSON Schema for info.json
• Autocompletion for Prototypes (other autocompletion mostly deactivated)
  • completion for prototype field (only names)
  • completion for the type literal
• Compatibility with Jetbrains 2019.3 IDEs

Update 1.1.1:

Fixed:

• Global Variables where defined local

Update 1.2.0:

Added:

• Autocompletion for require statement. (autocompletes the path to lua files)
• Download the factorio lualib (https://github.com/wube/factorio-data/t ... ore/lualib)
• Type infer is followed the require statements correctly to files. This is based on the two points above
• Autocomplete Prototypes for tables (e.g. `LuaForce.recipe[String]LuaRecipe`)
• Autocomplete Prototypes in data.raw table.

Fixed:

• Removed weird indexing of files (only happens now, when finished downloading)

Changed:

• Settings will reload Prototypes and Lualib too.
• Check for updates is only done, when the Project is opened.

Hi,

thanks for this plugin

Update 1.2.1:

Fixed:

• Added missing log() and table_size() functions
• Defines-Table is now available again (was defined local)
• functions and variables inside base/core Prototype definitions are not shown in auto-completion anymore.

These fixes where released a while ago, but i forgot to post it here

Update 1.2.2:

Fixed:

• endless "Download Factorio LuaApi" on startup
• download of lualib and core prototypes failed

Great job!
Could you release a new version for Intellij Idea IC-221, please?
