Python IDE

punkrockguy318 · 2004-10-21 21:42:35

Is there a python IDE with autocompletion similar to Visual Basic or Visual C++?

Dusty · 2004-10-21 22:16:54

Do you want 'written in python' or 'works for python'?

the only python IDE I remember is idle; it comes with Python. I know there are others, I investigated them once, but I forget them all.

JEdit has pretty good Python support, but is written in Java.

i'm looking for works in python

xerxes2 · 2004-10-21 22:49:00

gvim to the people

phrakture · 2004-10-21 22:57:47

gvim + some plugins:
i use http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1074 for calltips

xerxes2 · 2004-10-21 23:09:10

good tip but I'm not that advanced coder yet,

I use gvim for everything from xml ,c, python but I don't like autocompletion features,
maybe that's more for "people that know what they are doing"

gvim is damn good though,
nice themes also

I get so many errors using python calltips..

What version do you have and how did you install it?

phrakture · 2004-10-21 23:43:19

i'm using it on windows from work... dont have it setup at home... you're going to need some pythin packages IIRC...
im not really sure... it "just works" here... let me do a bit of research when i get home (on my way out of the office now...)

however : vim needs to be compiled with "+python" and I'm not sure if the arch package has it... according to the creator, it works fine in vim6.3 and python 2.3.....

punkrockguy318 · 2004-10-22 00:08:44

How do I compile vim with pyton?

punkrockguy318 · 2004-10-22 00:18:50

Nevermind, I got it to compile.. Calltips are nice

punkrockguy318 · 2004-10-22 00:29:42

WOW. Calltips and SuperTab... That makes vim the PERFECT EDITOR I WAS LOOKING FOR!! Thank you so much guys... I am eternally grateful No more keeping python API docs up all the time

Question: Is there any way to automatically call DoCalltips() when editting a *.py file?

Maybe I'll make a vim-python package with python enabled and plugins installed.... Because this beats ANY ide ANY day!

punkrockguy318 · 2004-10-22 00:32:05

Also: Is there some way of running the program through python in vim? Maybe some plugin or something?

punkrockguy318 · 2004-10-22 00:53:46

I know i can :pyfile whatever.py, but how can I pyfile the file I'm working on (saved or not?)

phrakture · 2004-10-22 01:53:57

there's a tip that explains it... i can't recall offhand... i think the tip or script wasn't specifically for python, but actually allowed you to type out some python, select it all and run the script and it inserts the output in place of the script - it was really cool.... tomorrow at work i'll make sure to post some of my tidbits

freakyc · 2004-10-22 04:25:41

There's also DrPython. I can't say I've used it much (I think there's gonna be some work to get it going with Arch, old wxgtk and such). And code completion needs a plugin.

And if you use KDE, there's eric3. I believe it's Staging that it's in, but it seems to have a package conflict.

Just thought I'd throw those out.

phrakture · 2004-10-22 14:13:56

python << EOL
  import vim, StringIO,sys
  def PyExecReplace(line1,line2):
    r = vim.current.buffer.range(int(line1),int(line2))
    redirected = StringIO.StringIO()
    sys.stdout = redirected
    exec('n'.join(r[:]) + 'n')
    sys.stdout = sys.__stdout__
    output = redirected.getvalue().split('n')
    r[:] = output[:-1] # the -1 is to remove the final blank line
    redirected.close()
EOL
command -range pyexec python PyExecReplace(<f-line1>,<f-line2>)

add this to your vimrc... you can fiddle with it, but basically, you select a python snippet and run ":pyexec" and it will run it... you can use % to run the entire buffer too.... ":%pyexec" i think

however, this does replace the selection with an output... if you know vim scripting+python well enough (i really dont) you could open a temp buffer and spit the output there.....

I know there is an eclipse plugin for python. I have started using it, and its verrrry nice.

freakyc · 2004-10-22 14:30:52

I actually just looked at the page for that plugin yesterday and didn't think of it. I think this is what you meant: http://pydev.sourceforge.net/

iphitus · 2004-10-22 14:44:10

Yuhuh, i found it here a few weeks ago:

I've heard great things about ActiveState's Komodo IDE.

sud_crow · 2004-12-21 19:56:30

I've heard great things about ActiveState's Komodo IDE.

Me too, but its a commercial product...

Eclipse works quite well thought, and pardon me, Vim lovers.. but Emacs has great support too. (Im bi-editor Vim for fast console editing and Emacs for long works)

Eric looked nice, but it didnt worked so good to me, also, KDevelop and Anjuta have some kind of support i think...

What other good (free) IDEs are out there?

someone · 2009-08-17 18:55:31

hi, im probe to use drpython. I'm interested to run the code... I press the run button but the code doesn't start
