Developer Setup Notes (Plugin Code v2.5)

Clone the code from github.

Open Intellij, and open as a new project. This should automatically index and setup part of the project, but it may equally well set it up incorrectly. Key steps to be aware of include:

1. If a module is missing then set it up, click on the + button, and then select the directory (in this case Exchange).

2. 

   1. click on wizard option: create module from existing sources

   2. 

3. select “grails” from dropdown on next wizard page

4. finish and apply

5. Check Project section that Java 1.8 or higher is selected.

6. Make sure correct Grails version (2.5.6) is selected - right click on Project and select Grails menu option.

7. If moving from a pre-v2.5 database the role_hierarchy_entry table needs to be dropped, the application will re-apply a new hierarchy on loading up.

8. -Dgrails.server.port.http=8090 to change port

9. -Xmx8G to up the heap memory available
