Makefile support plugin for IntelliJ IDEA

Plugin is available for install via official repository. Source code is available on GitHub

Plugin provides full support for GNU Makefile syntax including syntax highlighting, prerequisites completion and resolution. There is also a quick-fix to create new rule from unresolved prerequisite. Individual rules can be folded for better overview.

It also supports executing Makefiles:

• via “run” gutter mark
• from Make tool window
• pressing Alt-Enter and selecting target
• using Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-F10 on a target

Run configuration

Alternatively, a run configuration can be created for any Makefile and target, with options to set up working directory, add arguments and environments variables.

Tool window

Version 1.5 introduced a dedicated tool window, containing all project Makefiles and their targets. Press Enter to run a target, F4 to navigate to the source.
