I like ActiveState's Komodo.  It's heavyweight and not free ($30 for
the personal edition) but it also supports Perl, Ruby, PHP and TCL.  I
started using it mostly on Windows but I've used it on Linux more
recently (and it runs on Solaris and OSX now too).
It has all the bells and whistles and probably won't appeal too much to
hardcore emacs/vim people because it is so GUI oriented and nowhere
near as fast.  Also, it's text editor is similar to the ones you get
with other popular IDE's like MS DevStudio and Eclipse i.e. not very
powerful.
I've used it extensively with Python and it handles whitespace
indentation beautifully.  I like that it also supports Perl because I
use Perl quite a bit too.
That being said, I'm going to give Wing IDE a try at some point soon.

I've had a similar experience and tried about everything.  Personally -
eclipse with PyDev has been the winner for me.  I also still do a bunch
of Java coding - so there is an added benefit of one tool across
languages.  The final thing I really like with eclipse is the svn
plugins - making life very easy.  Also, if your doing web/xml and other
stuff - there is a plugin for eclipse for it ;)  Not all the plugins
work as seemlessly together (i abandon eclipse for the majority of
plone/zope stuff - most of it isn't python - and setting up eclipse to
be happy with the output of archgen has not been worth the bother - I'm
sure it's possible)

PyLint can kind of be a pain if your on a low powered box, but tweaking
the settings (and I had to do a bit of tweaking) can alleviate the
problems, but still let you reap the benefits.

I don't know what a FOS IDE is, but my preferred free software
development environment for making web applications is:

  - GNU screen URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/

  - Powerful editor; lately I prefer Emacs with python-mode
URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/
URL:http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/PythonMode

  - Standards-compliant browser, such as Firefox; the web developer
toolbar extension is a must.
URL:http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/
URL:http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/

Separate 'screen' windows for:

  - VCS interaction
  - Continuous unit test running
  - Emacs session
  - Python interactive session

Many of the above could be in Emacs windows instead, but I already
know how to work 'screen'. The wonderful part about using 'screen' as
my IDE is that any of the tools can be interchanged as I like.

Re: Best IDE for Python

2006-08-14 Thread hiaips

I'm assuming that FOS = free open source...

In any case, what operating system do you run? If you're on OS X, I
highly recommend TextMate. It's not free, but it has good support
(either via built-in or third-party plugins) for Python as well as
HTML, SQL, XML, Django templates, and the like. A lot of Rails folks
use it (as well as Django and TurboGears developers, I might add).

The best general-purpose IDE for Python, IMO, is WingIDE. Again, it's
not free (personal license will cost you $30). It runs on each of the
major platforms - Windows, Linux, OS X - and has some nice features,
including code completion, syntax highlighting, a built-in Python
shell, etc. I don't think it has any features built-in specifically for
web dev, however; if you have to do lots of HTML, XML, and SQL as part
of your project, you might want something a bit more general-purpose.

If you're determined to go the FOSS route, you can always use VIM,
Emacs, Eric, or SPE.

Just my two cents...

Good luck finding the best Python IDE. :-)

While you are at it, have a look at Scribes. It's great for Python
editing and it's even written in Python. If you appreciate KISS, I'm
positive you'd appreciate Scribes. And if you yearn for an editor that
doesn't get in your way, or that allows you to focus exclusively on
coding, then it is for you.

unless you're on Windows, where edlin is the true standard editor.

as you can see, Microsoft's usability team has made some massive

On a more useful note, I'll assume you're not already a vim or emacs
zealot, since you are asking the question ;-) and give my tips:

SPE seems to be the best (free) python IDE out there at the moment,
though the text editor component is pretty basic. I personally use
jEdit, since it has a superb editor component, and Python plugins which
make developing in python very comfortable, such as a (cpython and
jython) debugger, and a Jython plugin which allows scripting of jEdit
in python (well, jython - so you'll miss a few of the newer language
features when scripting jEdit itself.

None of the pure python IDE's/editors out there come close to the likes
of jEdit, vim or emacs in terms of pure editing power.

I have recently been trying out NewEdit, and it is a pretty good IDE

The reason that I have it in quotes is because I haven't really found a
true IDE (like the way Eclipse behaves for Java) for python.  (I

To me, it just doesn't behave the same way as Eclipse for java. I have used the plug-in, and I usually use it on my home machine ( I am still a student). For example, in Java eclipse, if you import a module like math, then if you want to use a math function, you just type math + period, and then all the functionspop up in a scroll menu. I love this. I am not searching through online documentation...etc just to find some stupid method/function that I know is there. It doesn't seem to behave like this for PythonI wish it did.


I still love programming in Python, though.
