This file describes how to setup Eclipse and then the Python Charts project
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Setup Eclipse
|
|||
|
|
-------------
|
|||
|
|
These instructions were tested on Linux, but are very similar for Windows and
|
|||
|
|
Mac.
|
|||
|
|
1. Ensure you have Python 2.x installed
|
|||
|
|
2. Download and install Google App Engine SDK for Python from
|
|||
|
|
http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html
|
|||
|
|
3. Note which location you put App Engine in, as this will be needed later on.
|
|||
|
|
4. Download Eclipse from http://www.eclipse.org. Any distribution will probably
|
|||
|
|
do, but if you're going to do mainly web development, you might pick Eclipse
|
|||
|
|
IDE for JavaScript Web Developers
|
|||
|
|
5. Install the PyDev plugin using the Eclipse update site mentioned at
|
|||
|
|
http://pydev.org/download.html
|
|||
|
|
6. Install the Google Plugin for Eclipse: http://code.google.com/eclipse/
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Setup the project
|
|||
|
|
-----------------
|
|||
|
|
Generic instructions are available at
|
|||
|
|
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/ but the following
|
|||
|
|
should be enough:
|
|||
|
|
1. Launch Eclipse and create a workspace
|
|||
|
|
2. Create a new PyDev Project
|
|||
|
|
3. In the PyDev Project wizard, uncheck the "Use Default" checkbox for Project
|
|||
|
|
contents and browse to your tools/python_charts directory.
|
|||
|
|
4. Enter a project name. We'll assume PythonCharts in the examples below.
|
|||
|
|
5. In the radio button of the lower part of the window, select
|
|||
|
|
"Add project directory to the PYTHONPATH"
|
|||
|
|
6. Click Finish
|
|||
|
|
7. Select the Run > Run Configuration… menu item
|
|||
|
|
8. Create a new "Python Run" configuration
|
|||
|
|
9. Select your Python Charts project as project
|
|||
|
|
10. As Main Module, enter the path to your dev_appserver.py, which is a part
|
|||
|
|
of your App Engine installation,
|
|||
|
|
e.g. /usr/local/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py
|
|||
|
|
11. At the Arguments tab, enter the location of your project root.
|
|||
|
|
Using Eclipse variables if your project name is PythonCharts:
|
|||
|
|
${workspace_loc:PythonCharts}
|
|||
|
|
12. Launch the development app server by clicking the Run button.
|
|||
|
|
13. Launch a browser and go to http://localhost:8080
