Apart from other helpful features we’ve described over the EAP period, IntelliJ IDEA 2021.2 contains some useful updates for Kubernetes and Docker. You can test them now by getting the latest build from our website, the free Toolbox App, or snaps for Ubuntu. The following feature overview will help you browse through numerous changes.

As you are developing your awesome software, you probably need to create a bunch of run/debug configurations, including some for application servers. You also might need several Docker containers to test your code in various environments, maybe a container with a database as your backend, and a console to see what is going on in the database. All of these “entities” serve different purposes and we

The Docker integration enables you to build or pull Docker images and run Docker containers directly from IntelliJ IDEA. You can use special run configurations to run your application in a Docker container and see how it will behave in an environment identical to production. But what about debugging? Well, starting from version 2019.1 you can debug Java applications running in Docker containers di

In IntelliJ IDEA 2017.3 the Docker integration has had a lot of changes made to it, both big and small. What does this really entail though? Let’s find out! First of all, there are improvements to the Run/Debug Configurations dialog. Now you have the choice of three types of Docker Run Configurations: Docker Image Dockerfile Docker-compose (more…)

Finally, the holidays are over and it's time to get back to work. We hope you've already had a chance to try IntelliJ IDEA 2017.1 EAP. If not, there's one more reason to do it now: a freshly published EAP build. Along with the usual bugfixes it brings a handful of quite interesting novelties. Docker plugin now supports Docker for Mac (via "unix://"). Support for Windows (via "npipe://") is a

Last week, in partnership with Couchbase, we hosted a webinar focused around Docker. Arun Gupta, a Java Champion and Docker Captain, gave a solid overview of Docker and the IntelliJ IDEA's plugin for working with it. The slides from Arun’s presentation can be found at GitHub. Don't worry if you missed the webinar. You can watch it right now: https://youtu.be/IgJXYU3GOM4 In case you want to jump di

Join us Thursday, May 26th, 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EDT (New York) / 18:00 – 19:00 CEST (Berlin) (check other time zones) for our free live webinar Docker for Java Developers, featuring Arun Gupta. Docker is the developer-friendly container technology that enables creation of your application stack: OS, JVM, app server, app, database and all your custom configuration. So you are a Java developer but ho

As developers, we can all agree that shipping code should be easy. Whether deploying to a local testing or staging server, our laptop, or a Unix box halfway around the world, builds should be portable, predictable and (mostly) painless. But sometimes it seems like shipping code is half the battle - we spend countless hours configuring the infrastructure instead of delivering critical updates to ou
