1.8.1. Tips & tricks

  • I've been using PyCharm (professional edition) for more than 3 years now even if I used VSCode for 2 years before that, the Intellij suite is just amazing. Intellij suite with all the plugins for students is completely free.
  • If you are on Windows, use pycharm with WSL.
  • Use docker with pycharm, very easy to pull and create images & containers. Specially if you want to test your app, you can create a ubuntu container in less then 5sec.
  • Sync pycharm settings : https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/sharing-your-ide-settings.html#IDE_settings_sync
  • Commits : doc
    • pre-commit hooks : If you use conda as an interpreter in pycharm, you need to install pre-commit with pip in the environment that you are using. After the installation, see in the commit options (wheel button) next to the message if Run git hooks is there. If it isn't then restart pycharm.
    • When you write in your terminal : pip list | grep pre-commit you should see the package. Running pre-commit --version should also work.
    • Check the Amend commit box if you want to concatenate commits
    • If you want to delete a pushed commit :
      • Make sure that the branch isn't protected : open IDE settings Ctrl+Alt+S then go to git settings. You will see in the Push settings the protected branches. Note that if a branch is marked as protected on GitHub, PyCharm will automatically mark it as protected when you check it out but you can modify it.
      • To delete a pushed commit, you have to options: drop a commit, or reset a current branch to a specific commit. After doing one or the other open the push panel and instead of selecting 'push', select 'force push'. Remember that you need to force push, otherwise pycharm will tell you that there are changes on the remote that need to be merged.
  • Remote/local terminal & interpreter :
    • When creating a project with pycharm, you should use the anaconda python (windows or wsl) and not install python or using another one like virtualenv.
    • You can use ubuntu as default terminal in pycharm: tools>terminal and put in a shell path: ubuntu run
    • Add WSL interpreter in Pycharm (add interpreter -> WSL). For example, Conda installed in WSL, will be available in Pycharm.
  • Pytest :
    • you can choose by editing the configuration template of python and pytest + unit tests to select a default working directory for all your scripts
    • You can Run pytest just by right-clicking on a function bloc, file, or folder!
  • Always use Markdown code and add py to tell the markdown that it's python code. When you will do refactor. It will change the python code in the readme.
  • Plugins: You can download plugins from the settings menu. I recommend the following plugins:
    • github copilot
    • TBD
  • PyCharm has keyboard shortcuts for most of its commands related to editing, navigation, refactoring, debugging, and other tasks. Memorizing these hotkeys can help you stay more productive by keeping your hands on the keyboard. Link to Cheatsheet
  • If the plugin Table of contents doesn't work on a markdown file, create a small table with the title & two<!-- TOC -->, it should detect it.
  • Pycharm has fuzzy search when creating a file. For example 'alt+p' then 'alt+ins' then 'pf' to create a python file

1.8.3. Python remote interpreter (SSH /WSL)

  • add a remote python interpreter: usually found with which python on the remote server or WSL.
  • PyCharm envs: You can clean out old PyCharm interpreters that are no longer associated with a project see the image here .
  • This gives you a listing where you can get rid of old virtualenvs that PyCharm thinks are still around

1.8.4. Pycharm remote deployment

WARNING: project folder needs to be on windows and not WSL to use the remote ssh. Do not host folders outside WSL if you are not using a remote interpreter, there are WSL perforamance issues)

Defining a server as default: A deployment server is considered default if its settings apply by default during automatic upload of changed files. To define a deployment server as the default one, follow these steps:

Choose the desired server on the Deployment page. You can open this page it two possible ways: either Settings/Preferences | Build, Execution, Deployment | Deployment, or Tools | Deployment | You will see your servers, right click on the one you want to set it as default, and click 'use as default'

Enabling automatic upload: As soon as the default server is set, you can make upload to this server automatic. This can be done in the following two ways:

Open the deployment Options (Settings/Preferences | Deployment | Options or Tools | Deployment | Options from the main menu), and in the Upload changed files automatically to the default server field choose Always, or On explicit save action. The difference between these two choices is explained in the field description. In the main menu, select Tools | Deployment | Automatic upload. Note that automatic upload in this case is performed in the Always mode.

1.8.5. Remote SSH for ReactJS

  • First, make sure that in the server, the React project is running when you run yarn dev run
  • In pycharm, go to configuration and create a new config for npm
  • select package.json from the local folder
  • select command: run
  • select scripts: dev
  • Node interpreter: copy and paste the result of the command which node in the remote server
  • package manager: yarn, for example
  • environment: PATH= put the result of the command echo $PATH

1.9. HWINFO:

  • export file: regedit -> Ordinateur\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HWiNFO64
  • import settings: double-click on the downloaded file to restore settings. Check mine here
