directory based idea project with gradle

Question

I looked at the documentation and didn't see a way to do this. Is there a way to tell the gradle idea task to create the directory project structure (.idea) rather than the project/module files (ipr, iml, iws) ?

If it provided value to you, I suspect a pull request to add that feature would be accepted. — davidmc24, Oct 09 '13 at 15:21

No, there is no way. IDEA 13 will ship with greatly improved Gradle support, at which point Gradle's idea tasks will likely become less important.

It's really not that important with 12. I was just curious. Thanks. – Gregg Oct 08 '13 at 18:10

Here in the future with IDEA 15 and we're still using gradle idea to do this stuff because when we let IDEA do it, it breaks the project. – Hakanai Feb 29 '16 at 02:41

Agree. It's not sufficient for complex projects. – Daniel May 18 '16 at 14:30
Just as an update, they are currently working on this: https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/1366 – Gabriel Huff Sep 25 '17 at 06:59
