F.A.Q. - Frequently asked questions

Why the plugin is not supporting the .txt extension for Robotframework files?

This was done intentionally to avoid considering plain text files as Robotframework files. Since the .txt extension is used in many different contexts I would suggest to rename all the Robotframework files to support the .robot extension.

Anyway it is still possible to enable the Robotframework support for *.txt by just tweaking the IDEA configuration as follows:

  • In File > Settings > File Types select "Robotframework language file"
  • In the Registered patterns add *.txt

Developer notes

  • Please make sure that python classes are reference only via paths reachable from classes defined in the Python dedicated plugin descriptor (META-INF/robot-python.xml)
