If you are developing an application that uses spring-boot with IntelliJ, are you using yaml for Configuration Properties? When I was worried that complementation would not come out when writing Properties with yaml, I found out that there is a Plugin called Spring Assistant in IntelliJ Plugin. In this article, I would like to summarize how to introduce and use it. Plugin Document is here (spring-assistant)

What you can do

As far as the official document is seen, it seems that it collects the property information of the class with @ConfigurationProperties contained in the jar under the classpath and gives a completion. I tried it with my own project (not jarred), but unfortunately it didn't become a candidate for completion.

Introduction method

The introduction method is two steps, but ... plugin Install the Plugin by the following method.

The installation method is the same as other Plugins. [Preference]-> [Plugins]-> [Browse repositories ...]-> Enter spring assistant in the search bar-> [install]

Reboot

You can use it by restarting IntelliJ.

How to use

Once installed, all you have to do is open ʻapplication.yml` and fill in the Properties.

Finally

I'm using IntelliJ, so I'd like to add more and more Plugins for these itchy parts!
