error while reading extension file 'intellij_info_bundled.bzl'

Question

we are trying to create a Scala project which uses Spark also but we are facing issue Encountered error while reading extension file 'intellij_info_bundled.bzl': no such package '@intellij_aspect//': No WORKSPACE file found in C:/users//_bazel_user/i45wuf6d/external/intellij_aspect. Is it has something missing in Intellij?

Scala file

package src.main.scala

object HelloWorld extends App {
 def main(args: Array[String]) {
     println("Hello, world!")

} }

Build file

package(default_visibility = ["//visibility:public"])

load("@io_bazel_rules_scala//scala:scala.bzl", "scala_library", "scala_test")
scala_library(
name = "hello-world",
srcs = glob(["src/main/scala/*.scala"]),
)


scala_test(
name = "Hello_test",
srcs = glob(["src/main/scala/*.scala"]),
size = "small", # Expect this test to run quickly
   )

Work Space

workspace(name = "scala_example")

rules_scala_version="7522c866450cf7810eda443e91ff44d2a2286ba1" # update this as needed

http_archive(
name = "io_bazel_rules_scala",
url = "https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_scala/archive/%s.zip"%rules_scala_version,
type = "zip",
strip_prefix= "rules_scala-%s" % rules_scala_version
)

In general, like @Ittai, I would suggest you open an issue in the intellij plugin github repo.

Unfortunately, your version of the plugin is no longer supported. I, too, previously ran into an issue with an older version of the plugin and was recommended to upgrade to the latest version. Which resolved the specific issue I was facing.

When reporting the issue make sure to include the following bits of information:

• intellij build number
• plugin version number
• rules_scala version
• operating system (it seems your using Windows, while most users use unix based systems)
• bazel release number
• how you have opened the intellij project (BUILD file, WORKSPACE, .blazeproject)

Additionally, to verify this is in fact an issue with the plugin, I would also suggest you try to reproduce this issue on a Unix based system. It seems you are using Intellij compile on Windows. This may be Windows specific issue with aspects not being recognized.

When attempting to reproduce, make sure to clone your repository in a separate directory, close the intellij project, and reopen the project
