Best setup for developing

Mon Nov 10, 2014 11:45 pm

Hi,

I am trying to put up a setup to start programming in python foir the RPi.

I would like to use a decent IDE like Pycharm on my laptop (OS windows 7) and deploy and run the code on my RPi in an efficient and not very time consuming manner.

Can someone shed some light on some of the possible setups, even if that means using linux as development environment?

I have read some topics like this one: http://www.rkblog.rk.edu.pl/w/p/remote- ... one-black/
This one implies using linux as OS for the IDE.

Any more sugestions?

Regards

I am using a shared directory with my python and other code files on the pi. Then I am using "kate" on my linux (ubuntu) notebook and "Caret" on my chromebook to edit the files.
For code execution on the pi I use ssh.
I also use for some quick edits of files nano or vi in the ssh session.
BTW "kate" has a nice feature of saving a session of open files. So with one click I can open my files that I need for my project all at once.
If you are going to use windows I recommend that you set the editor of your choice to unix line endings to avoid problems on the pi.

There are KDE4 apps for Windows (and on OSX) so Kate is available there too :)
