# Dotfile Config

This is an IDEA plugin which syncs a subset of your application settings with the JSON file `~/.ideaconfig`.

An example of the format can be

seen [here](https://github.com/LlamaLad7/JetBrainsProject-DotfileConfig/blob/main/exampleconfig.json).

## Features

- Keymap support

- Code style support

- Hot reload when editing both inside and outside the relevant IDEA instance

- If you delete the file then it will be auto-populated with the IDE's current settings for you to tweak

## Limitations

- The format of strings in the config should be standardised. Currently, they just match the internal representations

  for simplicity.

- Support will be needed for migrating subconfigs to newer formats.

- We should ideally disable the relevant UI parts when a dotfile is controlling them.

- If a user creates an invalid config then we should provide more meaningful feedback.
