Gulp

Last modified: 10 August 2022

Required plugin: JavaScript and TypeScript

The plugin is available only in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, where it is enabled by default.

IntelliJ IDEA integrates with the Gulp.js Task Runner. IntelliJ IDEA parses Gulpfile.js files, recognizing definitions of tasks, shows tasks in a tree view, lets you navigate between a task in the tree and its definition in the Gulpfile.js file, and supports running and debugging tasks.

Gulp.js tasks can be run from the tasks tree in the dedicated Gulp Tool Window, or from the Gulpfile.js file, by launching a Gulp.js run configuration, or as aa before-launch task from another run configuration. IntelliJ IDEA shows the result of executing a task in the Run tool window. The tool window shows the Grunt output, reports the errors occurred, lists the packages or plugins that have not been found, etc. The name of the last executed task is displayed on the title bar of the tool window.
