I’m looking for an IDE that will allow me to edit remote Python projects and also has decent Django support, remote command execution, and maybe remote debugging. I’ve tried PyCharm and Aptana with PyDev but I’m not having much luck configuring them for remote editing. Thanks for your help!
I have Pycharm setup on a Ubuntu 10.10. The key is to use “sshfs” – it maps to my web-host – via ssh. Those are the pre-reqs : ssh access, sshfs. (unless you can figure out a way to map ssh to a windows shared drive).
So once ssh, sshfs are setup, I create a linux mount locally – so my webhost’s directory appears locally as “/webhostx” .. From then on Pycharm (or WingIde or any editor) does not care that “/webhostx” is really a remote folder mounted locally.
If all else fails there’s always Emacs (everything included 🙂 ).
Pycharm also has a remote debugging feature – I am in the process of testing it with my host (webfaction).
