This plugin is an assistant for the official Maven Templating Plugin.
Without using the Maven Templating assistant, you have to create your own java-templates folders and mark it as Sources Root or Test Sources Root.
Unfortunately, IntelliJ often loses those settings, especially when you re-import the Maven project. For large projects, manually reconfiguring folders is tedious and time-consuming.
The Maven Templating assistant does all this for you:
- Manages template folders when adding/removing/moving/renaming.
- Automatically scans the project on project opening.
- Automatically scans the project on Maven project (re)import.
- Allows you to enforce a project scan via the Project View Context menu or Tools menu.
The default java-templates folder name can be customized on the settings page under the Build Tools section.
