This plugin is not maintained anymore. Users interested in using IntelliJ IDEA to develop Groovy code should have a look at JetBrains' own Groovy and Grails plugin. For more information on this plugin, please visit the JetBrains JetGroovy plugin page. |
With GroovyJ, we're aiming to offer full integration of Groovy into JetBrains' IntelliJ IDEA.

Latest News
| Availability The first public release of GroovyJ is available through IDEA's plug-in manager under the Custom Languages category and requires IDEA 5.0 build #3378 or higher, which you can download from the IntelliJ Early Access Program (EAP) site and use with a free and time-limited license. You will need to create an EAP account in order to download EAP builds. |
We provide a few pages to help you track the status of the plug-in:
Releases
New versions of GroovyJ will be released through IntelliJ IDEA's Plug-in Repository and will be announced on the Plugins forum.
Miscellaneous
In case you had previously copied the Groovy Script Files.xml syntax file to one of the following locations:
- <USER_HOME>/.IntelliJIdea/config/filetypes (Unix/Windows)
- ~/Library/Preferences/IntelliJ IDEA/filetypes (Mac OSX)
you will need to shutdown IDEA and remove that file prior to downloading the plug-in.
| CVS modules The groovy-intellij module which targeted IDEA 4.5 has been superceded by the groovyj module which targets the forthcoming IDEA 5.0. |
