bash - Can I run a shell alias or function as a JetBrains IDE "External Tool"? -


in .bash_profile have

_func () {    ... ${1} ${2} } alias func="_func" 

and able call func (or _func) in jetbrains ide "external tool" (by specifying either "program"). when get

cannot run program "func"

is there way run shell alias or function jetbrains ide "external tool"?


i know there a plugin limited support similar, not support ide "macro" variables, "external tools" do.

the command use must have underlying executable. in case /bin/bash or similar, bash aliases available in scope of bash shell.

as better solution write short bash script , call instead.

if insist on using alias, it:

bash -l -c func
