Which option do I use to import Data Hub in IntelliJ ?

Which of the following options do I use to import Data Hub in my IDE (IntelliJ) ?

we did setup a gradle project (just need to create the gradle project files). And intellij automatically imports (offers you to read the gradle project) and makes source, library etc visible. in the project you need only to specify your extension source folder and the libraries you need. Pretty easy if you know gradle. If you don't know gradle other methods described below might be easier

I also prefer gradle, can you maybe share a bootstrap/template setup on github?

And since we are talking about gradle, this may interest you:

also check out the other projects I share, if you want to:

I highly recommend that you setup your datahub development environment as maven war overlay, as described here:

https://help.hybris.com/1808/hcd/39507a66e8314055b3478e0963dfd9e7.html - "Data Hub Web Application Overlay"

If you do that, you can import it into intellij as a regular "Maven" project and everything "just works".

your answer gave me some hope. Actually I'm trying to perform something simpler. Just want to be able to open the datahub classes in IntellyJ to be able to debug the "true" datahub application that is running remotely into a server.

To do that, is there a specific folder or file I must indicate to IntellyJ to open it properly? There is some Maven pom.xml inside Datahub folder, but it seems not the correct one to point to.

Thanks.

Below the error I'm analyzing( when DataHub calls YMKT )

The screenshot above has nothing related to YMKT.

Yes you may be right. But anyway that's what happens and it's likely a Datahub configuration issue.

If you have access to datahub source in git, then you can clone the project and import it to IntelliJ as a maven project by pointing to the root directory of all datahub modules. If you don't have access to the sources, then do what Markus recommends. That way maven will download all needed DataHub binaries and you'll be able to debug the decompiled code.
