Initial Setup

This section provides a clear step-by-step guide for setting up a new component in your project, ensuring it is properly integrated into the build system and recognized by the IDE.

  1. Create a New Package:

    • Navigate to server/apps/libs/modules/components/.
    • Create a new package with the name of your component, e.g., newcomponent.

  2. Update Settings:

    • Open bytechef/settings.gradle.kts.
    • Add the following line to include your new component in the build process: 
      include("server:libs:modules:components:newcomponent")

  3. Modify Build Files:

    • Open bytechef/server/ee/apps/worker-app/build.gradle.kts and bytechef/server/apps/server-app/build.gradle.kts.
    • Add the following line to both files to ensure your component is included as a dependency: 
      implementation(project(":server:libs:modules:components:newcomponent"))

  4. Load Gradle Changes:

    • Refresh or reload the Gradle project in IntelliJ IDEA.
    • This step ensures that IntelliJ recognizes your new component as a Java module, allowing you to work with it seamlessly within the IDE.
