pycharm and web2py - setup project

[Kirill Shatalaev]

Hello, I have Pycharm 2017.2 (Professional version).

And autocompletion and Parameter info (ctrl+p) does not work out of the box for DAL methods and functions (like, for example, define_table).

But, when I install pyDAL package on my project interpreter options, it works (see attached screenshot).

This is not the right way: using pydal as a separate package; this causes troubles. For example, 2.15.3 web2py crashing on start if pyDAL is installed to my venv as additional package.

What can I do to make autocompletion and parameter info usable?

Have you try with python 2.7 if it works... And are you using the pycharm project creation tool to configure your web2py environnement?? You can try with their tool before trying to make it work with virtual environnement...

Just tried with python 2.7, it creates new project from scratch and downloads web2py automatically. Still no autocomplete and parameters.

I guess it related to the refactoring that occur around importing stuff in web2py which was particular... It has been reworked in version 2.15.x

You may have a look at the web2py repo for having a look at how it change...

We should inform PyCharm devs about this change if the issue is coming from there, which I kind of pretty sure thinking about it...

I created an issue, but I m afraid web2py is not their main stream...

Good, could you maybe try with python 2.14.6 if it works, just to be sure that web2py 2.15.x series trigger the issue...

I think they are just not aware of the web2py modifications (if it the rigth reason of the issue), they have a lot on their plate and yes I guess web2py support could maybe not their major source of revenue... But they have a really good reputation and their product are wonderful.

Kirill, I just try to create a new project and the autocompletion was working, so I guess the issue is limited to virtual environement...

pycharm and wingIDE are different from Bbedit and sublimetext. bbedit and sublimetext have auto-complete out of the box, just by loading your files into a project, but for pycharm and wingIDE you have to muck around with the options etc. 

[Kirill Shatalaev]

Richard, how did you do that?

This is my scrincast on a clean installation and without any virtual environment. Does not work.

hmm... I don't understand why you say it not working... Once the pycharm indexing end, at the end of your vid you have autocomplete working no???

I do have last pycharm version 

PyCharm 2017.2

Also, do you have professional version of pycharm (you seems too)?

[Kirill Shatalaev]

Richard, as you can see at 2:20, parameter info is NOT working (indexing is finished, view->parameter info or ctrl+p is not working too)

After that I've added pyDAL package (2:43)

And ONLY then it starting to work, yes (3:26).

Pycharm is professional version, 2017.2.1

Ok, I confirm, I did have to install pyDAL too in order to allow autocompletion of db.define_table...

I use to test in controller and it was working with request... Not sure why...

I guess this is cause by the fact that pyDAL is a external product since sometimes and PyCharm didn't address this change...

Real don't like needing to install pyDAL as pycharm install it in python packages with pip... so you end with a specific version of pyDAL install with kind of override your web2py included instance if the version is superior to the version of web2py you work with... I just spent quite some times figure out why I had weird trace back error that I never had before searching where it was coming from... Until I recall that I had install the pyDAL with pycharm... I un install it with pip then dam dam, work as expected...

So for sure someone would better use virtual environment... I recall having trying to configure pycharm project within venv, I think there is tool to do so in pycharm I don't regularly use venv...

I would say never install pyDAL with pip without venv...
