Useful shortcut to open Intellij project(maven or SBT) from command line

I have to create a terminal/iterm short cut to open and auto import the projects of maven or SBT etc...

Right now I have to open IntelliJ first and then import the project manually.

Is there any command line (i.e. either terminal or iterm2) short cut for this ? I am using Mac.

I hope your intellij is copied in applications folder of mac os if so below command will work well

alias int='open -a  "IntelliJ IDEA CE"'

Basically you can create an alias for this and keep it in your .bashrc
Your maven or sbt projects will be auto imported if you go to the project folder where pom.xml or sbt build file exists and then you can say

 int .

This will invoke(open)/auto import your project in Intellij IDE.

This works well for mac terminal or iterm
