Serenity-core: Importing serenity-core into Eclipse via Gradle import feature

[rjrussell77]

Hi - I'm trying to import the serenity-core project into Eclipse using the Gradle import feature. I'm using STS (Spring Tool Suite 3.8 which implements Eclipse) and Eclipse Buildship (Eclipse Plug-ins for Gradle - STS Gradle migration).

When I choose to import gradle project and point it at serenity-bdd/serenity-core/gradle I get, "Could not find 'build.gradle' in the root folder. Is it a Gradle project?"

I'm a total newbie to Gradle so I think this is easily answered, but what is the best way for me to develop/extend serenity core using Eclipse/STS as my IDE?

Thanks,
Rob

Got a little further. Now seeing an error ("One of setGitDir or setWorkTree must be called.") after clicking the 'Build Model' button.

Any help here appreciated.
What IDE's are others using to work w/ the Serenity-core/java project?

Hi, I'm using IntelliJ

I think most of the core contributors are using IntelliJ. But Serenity uses the equivalent of a multi-module gradle project, so Gradle may be having trouble handling this. I'll have a look in STS when I get a spare moment.
