My suspicion is that most of the users create build.sbt and plugins.sbt files. Maybe when the user selects to create an sbt file, we can display a dropdown list from which he will be able to choose whether he wants to create an build.sbt or plugins.sbt file. Or he will be able to enter his own name as if he wanted to create some custom file. Similar as it is done for javascript file (but they allow you to create files with different extensions, and we would give users the same extension but just different names )

What do you think @unkarjedy ?

@azdrojowa123

I agree that it would be a more convenient UX.
Though I don't know if the current API supports it.

I created a similar feature request in IntelliJ some time ago:
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-306704/project-view-provide-a-way-to-create-quickly-special-files-via-New-in-this-Directory-action
Though it's not completely the same.

It would be nice to have a look if the existing API allows to have some predefined file names in the dropdown list when you select "Sbt file" template

@Sa1to Please append #SCL-21374 in the commit message.

My suspicion is that most of the users create build.sbt and plugins.sbt files.

Also some notes:

I guess users mostly don't create build.sbt files because they already exist once you create an SBT project or open an existing one. So it's mostly applicable to plugins.sbt file
We shouldn't suggest a file name if the file already exists in the selected directory

I think that it might be possible to create build.sbt files e.g. when someone creates a multi build project or build.sbt file in the project directory (such a file exists, for example, in our ultimate repository)

We shouldn't suggest a file name if the file already exists in the selected directory

Really good note, I agree

I was trying to use CreateFromTemplateActionBase to use dialog with different file kinds like when you create scala class
but it is difficult to add default text for each file kind. I am suggesting create separate actions for build.sbt, plugin.sbt and sbt file with custom name, and put them in dropdown like this

azdrojowa123 · 2024-05-08T09:49:15Z

@Sa1to for me this PR is not working :(
I mean build.sbt and plugin.sbt are not being generated correctly

azdrojowa123 · 2024-05-15T15:55:09Z

+
+import javax.swing.Icon
+
+abstract class NewPredefinedSbtFileAction(@NlsActions.ActionText title: String, @NlsActions.ActionDescription description: String, icon: Icon, fileName: String) extends CreateFromTemplateActionBase(title, description, icon) {


this line with class parameters is too long. Each parameter should be in a separate line. The same like in methods.

azdrojowa123 · 2024-05-15T15:55:51Z

+
+abstract class NewPredefinedSbtFileAction(@NlsActions.ActionText title: String, @NlsActions.ActionDescription description: String, icon: Icon, fileName: String) extends CreateFromTemplateActionBase(title, description, icon) {
+
+  override def getTemplate(project: Project, dir: PsiDirectory): FileTemplate = FileTemplateManager.getDefaultInstance.getInternalTemplate(ScalaBundle.message("newclassorfile.menu.action.sbt.text"))


FileTemplateManager.getDefaultInstance.getInternalTemplate(ScalaBundle.message("newclassorfile.menu.action.sbt.text")) should be in a new line. It is not readable in IDE

azdrojowa123 · 2024-05-15T15:56:39Z

+  override def getTargetDirectory(dataContext: DataContext, view: IdeView): PsiDirectory = {
+    val directories: Array[PsiDirectory] = view.getDirectories
+    directories.find(directory => directory.findFile(fileName + ".sbt") != null).exists(dir => {
+      Messages.showErrorDialog(CommonDataKeys.PROJECT.getData(dataContext),


each operation on directories should be in a new line

exists takes a predicate as a parameter. What's your predicate here?

azdrojowa123 · 2024-05-15T16:01:00Z

+) {
+  protected override def getAttributesDefaults(dataContext: DataContext): AttributesDefaults = new AttributesDefaults(ScalaBundle.message("newclassorfile.menu.action.build.sbt.defaultName")).withFixedName(true)


new AttributesDefaults(ScalaBundle.message("newclassorfile.menu.action.build.sbt.defaultName")).withFixedName(true) should be in a new line

+) {
+
+  override def getTemplate(project: Project, dir: PsiDirectory): FileTemplate = FileTemplateManager.getDefaultInstance.getInternalTemplate(ScalaBundle.message("newclassorfile.menu.action.sbt.text"))


FileTemplateManager.getDefaultInstance.getInternalTemplate(ScalaBundle.message("newclassorfile.menu.action.sbt.text")) should be in a new line

azdrojowa123 · 2024-05-15T16:02:25Z

the same comment about the new line as above

unkarjedy · 2024-09-10T11:41:56Z

Do I understand that only cosmetic/formatting fixes are left and everything works?

azdrojowa123 · 2024-09-10T12:00:40Z

As I remember yes.
@Sa1to could you fix these cosmetic changes and recheck if everything works?
