| # PyCharm Community Edition |
| |
| The "python" directory in the source repository contains the source code of PyCharm Community Edition and the Python plugin for |
| IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition. |
| |
| ## Skeletons |
| |
| In order to successfully run the full test suite for PyCharm Community Edition and to build a fully working distribution, you need to |
| check out the library skeletons, which are stored in a separate Git repository. To do this, you need to change to the 'helpers' |
| directory and run the following command: |
| |
| git clone https://github.com/JetBrains/python-skeletons.git |
| |
| ## Building and Running |
| |
| The code is part of the main IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition project and is compiled together with the rest of the codebase. |
| To run PyCharm Community Edition, please use the provided run configuration "PyCharm Community Edition". To run IntelliJ IDEA with |
| the Python plugin, please use the "IDEA with Python plugin" run configuration. |
| |
| To run the test suite, use the built-in JUnit test runner and run all tests in the "python-community-tests" module. |
| |
| ## Building from the Command Line |
| |
| To build the distribution archive of PyCharm Community Edition, execute build.xml Ant build script in this directory. The results of the |
| build execution can be found at out/artifacts. |
| |
| ## Building the Python Plugin |
| |
| To build the Python plugin for IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition: |
| |
| * Download the .tar.gz distribution of the most recent EAP or release build of IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition; |
| * Run the following command: |
| |
| ant -Didea.path=<download path> -Didea.build.number=<build number of the build you're using> plugin |
