The settings that can be "auto-configured" through the plugin are divided up in a set of available configuration yaml files.

  • General IDE configuration (autoconfig.yaml)
  • Git VCS settings (autoconfigGit.yaml)
  • Java settings (autoconfigJava.yaml)
  • Maven settins (autoconfigMaven.yaml)

A good starting point for each of the configuration files is the wizard found in the IDE menu Tools -> Autoconfig -> Create Autoconfig File. A dialog asks for the desired configuration:

Make sure to observe the Yaml indentation while adding and editing properties.
