1 This file describes how to setup Eclipse and then the Python Charts project | |
2 | |
3 Setup Eclipse | |
4 ------------- | |
5 These instructions were tested on Linux, but are very similar for Windows and | |
6 Mac. | |
7 1. Ensure you have Python 2.x installed | |
8 2. Download and install Google App Engine SDK for Python from | |
9 http://code.google.com/appengine/downloads.html | |
10 3. Note which location you put App Engine in, as this will be needed later on. | |
11 4. Download Eclipse from http://www.eclipse.org. Any distribution will probably | |
12 do, but if you're going to do mainly web development, you might pick Eclipse | |
13 IDE for JavaScript Web Developers | |
14 5. Install the PyDev plugin using the Eclipse update site mentioned at | |
15 http://pydev.org/download.html | |
16 6. Install the Google Plugin for Eclipse: http://code.google.com/eclipse/ | |
17 | |
18 Setup the project | |
19 ----------------- | |
20 Generic instructions are available at | |
21 http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstarted/ but the following | |
22 should be enough: | |
23 1. Launch Eclipse and create a workspace | |
24 2. Create a new PyDev Project | |
25 3. In the PyDev Project wizard, uncheck the "Use Default" checkbox for Project | |
26 contents and browse to your tools/python_charts directory. | |
27 4. Enter a project name. We'll assume PythonCharts in the examples below. | |
28 5. In the radio button of the lower part of the window, select | |
29 "Add project directory to the PYTHONPATH" | |
30 6. Click Finish | |
31 7. Select the Run > Run Configuration… menu item | |
32 8. Create a new "Python Run" configuration | |
33 9. Select your Python Charts project as project | |
34 10. As Main Module, enter the path to your dev_appserver.py, which is a part | |
35 of your App Engine installation, | |
36 e.g. /usr/local/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py | |
37 11. At the Arguments tab, enter the location of your project root. | |
38 Using Eclipse variables if your project name is PythonCharts: | |
39 ${workspace_loc:PythonCharts} | |
40 12. Launch the development app server by clicking the Run button. | |
41 13. Launch a browser and go to http://localhost:8080 | |
