# usd-idea

A plugin for JetBrains IDEs (PyCharm, IntelliJ, etc) that provides support for [Universal Scene Description (USD)](https://github.com/PixarAnimationStudios/USD), a framework for interchange of 3D computer graphics data, developed by Pixar Animation Studios.

## Features

- `.usd`/`.usda` filetype syntax highlighting & validation

- Asset/prim reference navigation (with `usdresolve`)

- Brace matching/folding

- Structure view

## Installing

- Within the IDE:

    Preferences > Plugins > Marketplace > Search for "USD" > Install

- Manually:

    

    Download the [latest release](latest-release) and install it manually using Preferences > Plugins > Install Plugin from Disk...

    

`usdresolve` path can be configured in Settings > Languages & Frameworks > USD.

## Building

1. [Install IntelliJ IDEA](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download); install **Gradle** and **Plugin Devkit** plugins (installed by default)

2. Open this project

3. Build the project: Build > Build Project

4. Launch the plug-in: Gradle > usd-idea > Tasks > intellij > runIde

   

   This will launch the plugin in the IntelliJ IDEA version specified in the [build.gradle](https://github.com/justint/usd-idea/blob/master/build.gradle). 

   

   If you wish to launch it in a different non-IDEA JetBrains IDE (ie. PyCharm, CLion), you can specify an alternativeIdePath to your editor's path. See the [grade-intellij-plugin](https://github.com/JetBrains/gradle-intellij-plugin/) documentation for more details. 

For more details on building IntelliJ Platform plugins, see JetBrains's documentation: [IntelliJ Platform SDK DevGuide - Quick Start Guide](https://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/basics/basics.html)
