**Product Help:** [Modules](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/modules.html)
|
|

</tldr>
|
|
|
|
A _module_ is a discrete unit of functionality that can be run, tested, and debugged independently.
|
|
Modules include such things as source code, build scripts, unit tests, deployment descriptors, etc.
|
|
|
|
The key components of a module are:
|
|
* **Content roots** - the directories where the files belonging to the module (source code, resources, etc.) are stored.
|
|
Each directory can belong to one and only one module; it's not possible to share a content root between multiple modules.
|
|
* **Source roots** - A content root can have multiple **source roots** underneath it.
|
|
Source roots can have different types: regular source roots, test source roots, resource roots, etc.
|
|
In IntelliJ IDEA, source roots are used as roots of the package hierarchy structure.
|
|
Java classes directly under a source root will be in the root package.
|
|
Source roots can also be used to implement more fine-grained dependency checks.
|
|
Code under a regular source root cannot depend on code under a test source root.
|
|
> Not all other IntelliJ Platform-based IDEs use source roots.
|
|
* **Order entries** - the dependencies of a module, which are stored in an ordered list.
|
|
A dependency can be a reference to an [SDK](sdk.md), a [library](library.md), or another module.
|
|
* **[Facets](facet.md)** - the list of framework-specific configuration entries.
|
|
|
|
In addition to that, a module can store other settings, such as a module-specific [SDK](sdk.md), compile output path settings, etc.
|
|
Plugins can store additional data associated with a module by creating facets or module-level components.
|
|
|
|
The IntelliJ Platform provides a number of classes and interfaces you can use to work with modules:
|
|
|
|
* [`Module`](%gh-ic%/platform/core-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/module/Module.java)
|
|
* [`ModuleUtil`](%gh-ic%/platform/lang-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/module/ModuleUtil.java)
|
|
* [`ModuleManager`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/module/ModuleManager.kt)
|
|
* [`ModuleRootManager`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/roots/ModuleRootManager.java)
|
|
* [`ModuleRootModel`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/roots/ModuleRootModel.java)
|
|
* [`ModifiableModuleModel`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/module/ModifiableModuleModel.java)
|
|
* [`ModifiableRootModel`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/roots/ModifiableRootModel.java)

This section discusses how to complete some common tasks related to management of modules.
|
|
|
|
See [Changing the Project Structure](project.md#changing-the-project-structure) for information on modifying project/module structure.
|
|
|
|
### How do I get a list of modules the project includes?
|
|
|
|
Use the `ModuleManager.getModules()` method.
|
|
|
|
### How do I get dependencies and classpath of a module?
|
|
|
|
_Order entries_ include SDK, libraries and other modules the module uses.
|
|
With the IntelliJ IDEA UI, you can view order entries for a module on the <control>Dependencies</control> tab of the <control>Project Structure</control> dialog box.
|
|
|
|
To explore the module dependencies, use the [`OrderEnumerator`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/roots/OrderEnumerator.java) class.
|
|
|
|
The following code snippet illustrates how you can get classpath (classes root of all dependencies) for a module:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
VirtualFile[] roots = ModuleRootManager.getInstance(module).orderEntries().classes().getRoots();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### How do I get the SDK the module uses?
|
|
|
|
Use the `ModuleRootManager.getSdk()` method.
|
|
This method returns a value of the [`Sdk`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/projectRoots/Sdk.java) type.
|
|
|
|
The following code snippet illustrates how you can get detailed information on SDK the specified module uses:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
ModuleRootManager moduleRootManager = ModuleRootManager.getInstance(module);
|
|
Sdk SDK = moduleRootManager.getSdk();
|
|
String jdkInfo = "Module: " + module.getName() + " SDK: " + SDK.getName() + " SDK version: "
|
|
+ SDK.getVersionString() + " SDK home directory: " + SDK.getHomePath();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### How do I get a list of modules on which this module directly depends?
|
|
|
|
Use the `ModuleRootManager.getDependencies()` method to get an array of the `Module` type values or the `ModuleRootManager.getDependencyModuleNames()` to get an array of module names.
|
|
To clarify, consider the following code snippet:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
ModuleRootManager moduleRootManager = ModuleRootManager.getInstance(module);
|
|
Module[] dependentModules = moduleRootManager.getDependencies();
|
|
String[] dependentModulesNames = moduleRootManager.getDependencyModuleNames();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### How do I get a list of modules that depend on this module?
|
|
|
|
Use the `ModuleManager.getModuleDependentModules(module)` method.
|
|
|
|
Note that you can also check whether a module (*module1*) depends on another specified module (*module2*) using the `ModuleManager.isModuleDependent()` method in the following way:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
boolean isDependent = ModuleManager.getInstance(project).isModuleDependent(module1,module2);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### How do I get a module to which the specified file or PSI element belongs?
|
|
|
|
* To get the project module to which the specified file belongs, use the `ModuleUtil.findModuleForFile()` static method.
|
|
|
|
To clarify, consider the following code snippet:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
String pathToFile = "C:\\users\\firstName.LastName\\plugins\\myPlugin\\src\\MyAction.java";
|
|
VirtualFile virtualFile = LocalFileSystem.getInstance().findFileByPath(pathToFile);
|
|
Module module = ModuleUtil.findModuleForFile(virtualFile,myProject);
|
|
String moduleName = module == null ? "Module not found" : module.getName();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* To get the project module to which the specified [PSI element](psi_elements.md) belongs, use the `ModuleUtil.findModuleForPsiElement()` method.
|
|
|
|
### Accessing Module Roots
|
|
|
|
Information about module roots can be accessed via [`ModuleRootManager`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/roots/ModuleRootManager.java).
|
|
For example, the following snippet shows how to access the content roots of a module:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
VirtualFile[] contentRoots = ModuleRootManager.getInstance(module).getContentRoots();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Checking Belonging to a Module Source Root
|
|
|
|
To check if a virtual file or directory belongs to a module source root, use the `ProjectFileIndex.getSourceRootForFile()` method.
|
|
This method returns `null` if the file or directory does not belong to any source root of modules in the project.
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
VirtualFile moduleSourceRoot = ProjectRootManager.getInstance(project).getFileIndex().getSourceRootForFile(virtualFileOrDirectory);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Java: Compiler Output Properties
|
|
|
|
Obtain [`CompilerModuleExtension`](%gh-ic%/platform/projectModel-api/src/com/intellij/openapi/roots/CompilerModuleExtension.java) for given `Module` instance to access <control>Compiler Output</control> path related properties.
|
|
|
|
## Receiving Notifications About Module Changes
|
|
|
|
To receive notifications about module changes (modules being added, removed or renamed), use the [message bus](messaging_infrastructure.md) and the `ProjectTopics.MODULES` topic:
|
|
|
|
```java
|
|
project.getMessageBus().connect().subscribe(ProjectTopics.MODULES, new ModuleListener() {
|
|
@Override
|
|
public void moduleAdded(@NotNull Project project, @NotNull Module module) {
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If targeting 2019.3 or later, [declarative registration](plugin_listeners.md) is available as well.
