Description:

Provides some actions to integrate IDEA into the native desktop environment.

Actions include executing the currently active file in the platform's default application, showing the active file in the platform file manager and opening a command shell in the active file's directory.

Integrates the actions into Tools-menu and main toolbar and provides an entry for the SelectInTarget-Menu to show in file manager.

Additionally a custom binary file type is registered and associated with several extensions. These files may be executed in the platform's default application by double-clicking them in the project view, for example.

Furthermore from native file manager files may be dropped on unused areas of the idea frame (empty space in toolwindowbars, editor tab area, toolbar, menubar and statusbar).

The action commands may be configured in config/options/other.xml in section NativeNeighbourhoodPlugin. Supported replacement variables are $FilePath$, $FileDir$, $FileName$ and $PluginsHome$. All Icons are loaded from configured "iconsDir" below /org/intellij/plugins/nativeNeighbourhood/icons/.

The labels may be customized in META-INF/plugin.xml in plugin directory. The associated extensions may be configured in other.xml or using the filetypes-applet in IDEA configuration.

It seems that some scripts are missing in the last version(1.2). That's why this plugin doesn't work on the Mac. To make it work you need to download version 1.1.1 and copy files "reveal.sh" and "terminal.sh" from it to "~/Library/Application Support/IntelliJIDEA80/NativeNeighbourhood/classes/org/intellij/plugins/nativeNeighbourhood/icons/macosx". Voila!

I used to use this a lot (and loved it) but at some point many months ago it stopped working for me on Mac OS X with IntelliJ 8.x. It tries to open explorer.exe which is a windows thing (obviously).

Let's try again without XML-Tags, which are removed, when commenting:

In Ubuntu you can use the following configuration in ~/.IntelliJIdea70/config/options/other.xml: change the value-Attributes of the following tags in the component NativeNeighbourhoodPlugin to:
executeWithDefaultAppCommand: gnome-open $FilePath$
showInFileManagerCommand: nautilus $FileDir$
openCommandShellInCommand: gnome-terminal "--working-directory=$FileDir$"

Setting the extensions does not work, they are always overwritten.

The drag-n-drop from the filesystem is very useful - it turns IDEA into your one-stop editor.

This plugin provides absolutely essential functionality, if you use IntelliJ as your primary GUI version control client.

It allows you to open editors for images, documents, etc. in external programs. Development is more than writing Java source code.
