# [Jetbrains IntellIJ CLion](https://www.jetbrains.com/clion)
|
|
|
|
## Linux
|
|
|
|
When opening the folder for the first time, select `Open as CMake project` if the IDE ask you between Make and CMake.
|
|
|
|
The IDE will open the folder and display the open project wizard:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CLion try to determine a base configuration, but Minetest define it's own presets for easier setup. So you need to
|
|
delete the `Debug` profile with the `-` sign and close the dialog.
|
|
|
|
You should notice a notification telling you 4 presets have been loaded in the bottom right corner.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clicking on the `View` link or going to `Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > CMake` you should get a window
|
|
similar to the Open Project Wizard, but with the readonly presets listed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, none of the presets are enabled. You can select them and enable the ones you want. Keep in mind that
|
|
triggering the CMake project reload (VCS updates, config changes, etc) will reload all the enabled profiles, so unless
|
|
you need the other ones you can enable just `Debug` and `Release`.
|
|
|
|
If none of the availlable profiles fit your needs, you can create a `CMakeUserPresets.json` file, edit it by hand and
|
|
CLion will load the presets in this window. But the easiest solution is to create an editable copy of one of the availlable
|
|
presets with the `Copy` button icon.
|
|
|
|
After these steps you should get an IDE like this.
|
|
|
|
On the main toolbar at the top right, you have a dropdown for selecting the CMake profile to use for the build. You have another dropdown next to it to select the build target; by default the `minetest` executable will be selected, but you may also have to use `IrrlichtMt` for building just the library .
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can rightclick the topbar to change the project icon and color, for fancier looking IDE.
|
|
|
|
## Windows
|
|
|
|
Under Windows, the recommended compiler is the [Visual Studio](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com) compiler.
|
|
|
|
From the Visual Studio installer, you need to install the `Desktop development with C++` Workload. CMake is already
|
|
bundled in CLion.
|
|
|
|
By default, CLion have a MinGW compiler bundled, so if you want to use Visual Studio, you need to configure it as the default compiler.
|
|
|
|
CLion may ask you in the open project wisard for your compilers, with MinGW and Visual Studio if you have installed it predefined. You can use the arrows to make `Visual Studio` the default.
|
|
|
|
If not you can go to `Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Toolchains` to change it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then, the process is roughly similar to Linux, you just need to pick `Visual Studio` as toolchain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[Vcpkg](https://vcpkg.io) is the recommended way of installing Minetest dependencies.
|
|
|
|
You need to let CLion know about a `vcpkg` installation to let the bundled CMake use the dependencies seamlessly and get
|
|
IDE integration. (Require CLion 2023 or later)
|
|
|
|
Go to `View > Tool Windows > Vcpkg` and click the add button. I will open a popup allowing you to add a Vcpkg
|
|
installation. By default it will download a new one that you can use to install your dependencies, but if you already
|
|
have one installed or you do not plan on using CLion only then install Vcpkg by hand and select your installation
|
|
directory. Don't forget to check `Add vcpkg installation to existing CMake profiles`. If you haven't already installed
|
|
Minetest dependencies in your vcpkg installation, you can do it right from CLion's Vcpkg tool window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reloading the CMake project (should happen automatically, or display a notification for outdated CMake project) will now
|
|
load the dependencies.
|
|
