# Apache NetBeans: Application Settings

## Introduction

My NetBeans installation is setup to program in Java. These are the settings, plugins and styles I use.

## Requirements

- [Java SE Development Kit 18.0.1.1](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/)
- [Apache NetBeans &GreaterEqual; 14](https://netbeans.apache.org/)

## Settings

- [netbeans-settings.zip](./releases/netbeans-settings.zip?raw=true) - My recommended settings for NetBeans.
- [netbeans-default.zip](./releases/netbeans-default.zip?raw=true) - The default settings for NetBeans. *(incase you need to reset your changes)*

### Instructions

Open Apache NetBeans. On the menu bar open `Tools`, choose `Options`. On the bottom left of the Options windows choose `Import`. Then in the `Select Options to Import` window click `Browse`, and select `NetBeans-Settings.zip`. Then click `OK`, click `OK` again. Then click `Yes`. NetBeans will now restart with the new settings.

## Settings: Set author name and website

Open Apache NetBeans. On the menu bar open `Tools`, choose `Templates`. On the `Template Manager` window, at the bottom right corner click the `Settings` button. A document `User.properties` will open. On line 8 it should read
`user=Name Surname `

Change this to your name and website and save and close the file. For myself it would be
`user=Mark Crowe `

## Windows Context Menu

> Context menu screenshot

To add the Context menu entry save and download the link: [Add-Context-Menu-NetBeans-16.0](./windows-context-menu/open-in-netbeans-version-16.0-add.reg?raw=true) and run the file. For other versions see the [windows-context-menu](./windows-context-menu/) directory and select the file for your version of NetBeans.

To remove the Context Menu save and download the link: [Remove-Context-Menu-NetBeans](./windows-context-menu/open-in-netbeans-remove.reg?raw=true) and run the file.

## Plugin Instructions

Open `Apache NetBeans`. On the menu bar open `Tools`, choose `Plugins`. Click the `Settings` tab and tick `NetBeans 8.2 Plugin Portal`. Then select `Available Plugins` and tick install for the following plugins.

- `gitignore.io`
- `NB SpringBoot`
- `NetBeans Case Converter`
- `Rainbow Braces`
- `sonarlint4netbeans`

Click `Install` and follow any `NetBeans IDE Installers` instructions, choosing `Next`, tick `accept the terms in all of the license arguments`, clicking `Install` and `Verify Certificates`.
