Plugin Content

There are two possible ways of organizing plugin content:

  1. A plugin consisting of one .jar file placed in the plugins directory:

    The archive should contain the configuration file (META-INF/plugin.xml) and classes that implement the plugin functionality. The configuration file specifies the plugin name, description, version, vendor, the supported IntelliJ IDEA version, plugin components, actions and action groups, and action user interface placement.

    .IntelliJIDEAx0/
  plugins/
    sample.jar/
      com/foo/...
      ...
      ...
      META-INF/
        plugin.xml

  2. Plugin files located in a .jar file that is placed in the lib folder:

    .IntelliJIDEAx0/
  plugins/
    Sample/
      lib/
        libfoo.jar
        libbar.jar
        Sample.jar/
          com/foo/...
          ...
          ...
          META-INF/
            plugin.xml

    All jars from the lib folder are automatically added to the classpath.
