IntelliJ IDEA is a special programming environment or integrated development environment (IDE) largely meant for Java. This environment is used especially for the development of programs. It is developed by a company called JetBrains, which was formally called IntelliJ. It is available in two editions: the Community Edition which is licensed by Apache 2.0, and a commercial edition known as the Ultimate Edition. Both of them can be used for creating software which can be sold. What makes IntelliJ IDEA so different from its counterparts is its ease of use, flexibility and its solid design. This Docker Image includes Git for SCM and Scala, Kotlin and Groovy programming languages.

Common questions

Which ports should be published for binhex-intellij?

Publish port 5900 for direct VNC client access and port 6080 for the noVNC web UI. The WEBUI_PORT environment variable can be used to set the web UI port.

How do I open the IntelliJ web UI?

Use the noVNC web interface at the mapped web UI port with the path /vnc.html and query values for host, port, resize=remote, and autoconnect=1.

How do I protect VNC access?

Set the VNC_PASSWORD environment variable for VNC access. Direct VNC clients connect to the host on port 5900.

How can I install extra Arch or AUR packages?

Set ENABLE_STARTUP_SCRIPTS to yes so startup scripts run from /config/home/scripts/. These scripts can install additional packages from the Arch Repository or the Arch User Repository.

Does the run command need a special seccomp option?

The documented run command uses --security-opt seccomp=unconfined. Include that Docker security option when starting the container.
