Is there a way to create custom postfix completions in IntelliJ?

Question

I want to be able to make custom postfix completions, but I can\'t seem to find anywhere to do so and haven\'t been able to find anything online. Anyone know how?

Answer 1

With the latest release i.e IntelliJ IDEA 2018.1, you can. That too, without using any plugin. It's embedded into the IDE itself.

Answer 2

You can't.
Well, postfix feature is basically Postfix Plugin for IntelliJ(now integrated). All templates are just compiled code, as you can see here:

Sadly, there isn't such easy xml like configuration. :(

Now you can. I've written a plugin for IDEA that allows you to create your own postfix templates. It's called Custom Postfix Templates:
