PyCharm 1.5 is quite nice, but it does have a couple of nasty issues. For example, it can't run Django in reload mode. Or, at least, PyCharm thinks that it can't [1] and the PyCharm folks keep on closing the Django reload bugs without any comment. Also, the VIM plugin is pretty unstable and creates weird input focus bugs (where I click on one pane and start typing only to have characters appear in another pane).
That said, PyCharm is worth it, even with some pain. Little features, such as autocompletion based on acronyms (e.g. 'sfn' will include 'someFunctionName' and 'some_function_name' in the suggestions), make it a delight.
[1] I can get PyCharm to run Django either with reloading or with debugging, by editing Django's runserver command to force reloading (but then debugging doesn't work).
- ra 15y agoThat isn't a PyCharm bug, it's a regression [1] in Django 1.3 and is problematic for all IDE's. The bug was fixed for Django 1.3.1 which was released on Friday. https://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/15911 https://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/15911
- nknight 15y agoOK, so why don't they say that to their customers instead of closing bugs without comment?
- ra 15y agoI can't speak for them but to be fair it does warn in the IDE when you run using Django, also there is a bug ticket here: http://devnet.jetbrains.net/thread/305801 http://devnet.jetbrains.net/thread/305801.
- nknight 15y ago> the PyCharm folks keep on closing the Django reload bugs without any comment WTF? The top of their home page says "Powerful Python and Django IDE". If they're not going to support Django, they need to not pretend their product is targeted at it.
