Re: [Codenarc-user] CodeNarc plugin for IntelliJ IDEA

[Cédric C. <ced...@gm...>]

Thanks ;) I'm unsure about what are the best things to do to improve the 
integration. The first problem I have is that the line number isn't 
sufficient : IntelliJ uses its own AST where nodes are PsiElement 
subclasses. When an inspection reports an error, it must provide the 
PsiElement for which it occurs. As I don't know the exact element which 
has thrown the error, I'm doing a quick hint : choose the first 
PsiElement that's on line X. If the violation class could also return an 
ASTNode, I guess I could trigger more heuristics to find the good 
PsiElement.

For a better user experience, inspections also show a short description 
of the problem. CodeNarc rules have a name, a description of what the 
rule analyzes (found in a separate resource bundle), but no short 
description (when the error is actually found). Moreover, the names are 
not really that user friendly, though the name of the class is rather 
self explanatory : http://twitpic.com/3s0xvb/full
