JetBrains IDE dev server for Eclipse Che

This project allows you to use your local JetBrains IDE connected to your remote development environment running in Eclipse Che.

In Che-specific terms, this project represents an Eclipse Che editor based on IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate.

To connect the local JetBrains IDE with the in-cluster dev server, see the JetBrains Gateway plugin.

Troubleshooting

Integration of Jet Brains Gateway with Eclipse Che this editor provides is in the early stage. So, you may face some problems that require a manual resolution.

Problem 1: executing oc port-forward ... command reports an error:

error: error upgrading connection: pods "..." is forbidden: User "..." cannot create resource "pods/portforward" in API group "" in the namespace "..."

Solution: ask the admin to allow port forwarding for your user.

Problem 2: when typing in the editor, a popup reports an error:

No internet connection

Solution: check your terminal if the port forwarding is enabled.

Problem 3: executing oc port-forward ... command reports an error: Error from server (NotFound): pods "..." not found

Solution: check the Dashboard that your workspace is running.
