Re: Implementation with Intellij IDEA

Hi there,

I would also like to request a little bit of help implementing ma-core-public and ma-modules-public through Intellij IDEA.

My aim is relatively simple, I just want to modify the MulticolumnCSVImporter.java to change the datetime to European format. I have the java file in /mango/web/modules/dataFile/web/CompilingGrounds from my release install but not too sure how to go about it with the source code from git.

Thanks
Conor

Hi Conor,

You can modify this file right where it's at, then use the compiling tools on the data source's page to compile your changes and have it appear in the templates list (all without having to restart Mango). You may have to switch template types and back again after the compiling status has returned to have the template in the select list.

You may also find it easier to use

private SimpleDateFormat dtf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss");

instead of the DateTimeFormatter in the MulticolumnCSVImporter example.

I'm not very familiar Intellij IDEA but our projects are maven projects now, so you could try its Maven plugin if you find you really do need a full environment.

Ah amazing, I'd done exactly that but never switched templates to get it to reload.
Wonderful! Thanks Phil.
