After cloning your fork to local, follow the below steps to setup IntelliJ to run/debug IGB:
- Open integrated-genome-browser in IntelliJ.
- Click on the File tab and select the Project Structure option.
- Install Azul Zulu 21 version JDK and set it as the project SDK in the project settings.
- Click on the Run tab and select Edit Configuration option.
- Add a new configuration by clicking on the + (plus) icon and selecting JAR application option in the dropdown.
- In the configuration tab, add the location of the igb_exe.jar generated after running mvn clean install in the Path to JAR field.
- For the VM options field, add the JAVA_OPTS present in the run_igb.sh/run_igb.bat file (remove the back slashes) or the content below (this is the same content as in the file but modified as described).
