Launch Pycharm from command line (terminal)

2020-02-04 06:30发布

问题:

I want to try out PyCharm for sage mathematics development. Normally I run eclipse to do sage development, but now I want to try it with PyCharm.

To launch eclipse with sage environment variables, in command line I normally do the following:

sage -sh
cd /path/to/eclipse
./eclipse

The first line loads the sage environment variables, the remainder launches eclipse. How can I do the same thing for pyCharm? (note I am using a Mac and Ubuntu for sage development; the commands above are agnostic to both OSes)

  1. Link 1 is close to the solution I am looking for, however I cannot find a pyCharm.sh anywhere.
  2. Link 2: Jetbrains does not give clear instructions either.

回答1:

  1. Open Application Pycharm
  2. Find tools in menu bar
  3. Click Create Command-line Launcher
  4. Checking the launcher executable file which has been created in /usr/local/bin/charm
  5. Open project or file just type $ charm YOUR_FOLDER_OR_FILE

May this what you need.



回答2:

You're right that the JetBrains help page isn't very clear. On OS X, you'll want to use the launcher at:

/Applications/PyCharm.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm

Or, for community edition:

/Applications/PyCharm\ CE.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm

Unfortunately, adding a symlink to this binary wouldn't work for me (the launcher would crash). Setting an alias worked, though. Add this in your .bash_profile (or whatever shell you use):

alias pycharm="/Applications/PyCharm CE.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm"

Then, you can run commands with simply pycharm.

With this you can do things like open a project:

pycharm ~/repos/my-project

Or open a specific line of a file in a project:

pycharm ~/repos/my-project --line 42 ~/repos/my-project/script.py

Or view the diff of two files (they don't need to be part of a project):

pycharm ~/some_file.txt ~/Downloads/some_other_file.txt

Note that I needed to pass absolute paths to those files or PyCharm couldn't find them..



回答3:

Inside the IDE, you can click in:

Tools/Create Command-line Launcher...



回答4:

I normally alias using built-in application launcher (open) from OS X:

alias pc='open -a /Applications/PyCharm\ CE.app'

Then I can type:

pc myfile1.txt myfiles*.py

Though you can't (easily) pass args to PyCharm, if you want a quick way to open files (without needing to use full pathnames to the file), this does the trick.

Update

It is now possible to create command line launcher automatically from JetBrains Toolbox. This is how you do it:

  1. Open up the toolbox window;
  2. Go to the gear icon in the upper right (the settings window for toolbox itself);
  3. Turn on Generate shell scripts;
  4. Fill the Shell script location textbox with the location where you want the launchers to reside. You have to do this manually it will not fill automatically at this time!

On Mac the location could be /usr/local/bin. For the novices, you can use any path inside the PATH variable or add a new path to the PATH variable in your bash profile. Use echo $PATH to see which paths are there.

Note! It did not work right away for me, I had to fiddle around a little before the scripts were generated. You can go to the gearbox of the IDEA (PyCharm for example) and see/change the launcher name. So for PyCharm, the default name is pycharm but you can change this to whatever you prefer.

Original answer

If you do not use the toolbox you can still use my original answer.

~~For some reason, the Create Command Line Launcher is not available anymore in 2019.1.~~ Because it is now part of JetBrains Toolbox

This is how you can create the script yourself:

If you already used the charm command before use type -a charm to find the script. Change the pycharm version in the file paths. Note that the numbering in the first variable RUN_PATH is different. You will have to look this up in the dir yourself.

RUN_PATH = u'/Users/boatfolder/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/PyCharm-P/ch-0/191.6183.50/PyCharm.app'
CONFIG_PATH = u'/Users/boatfolder/Library/Preferences/PyCharm2019.1'
SYSTEM_PATH = u'/Users/boatfolder/Library/Caches/PyCharm2019.1'

If you did not use the charm command before, you will have to create it.

Create the charm file somewhere like this: /usr/local/bin/charm

Then add this code (change version number to your version as explained above):

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import socket
import struct
import sys
import os
import time

# see com.intellij.idea.SocketLock for the server side of this interface

RUN_PATH = u'/Users/boatfolder/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/PyCharm-P/ch-0/191.6183.50/PyCharm.app'
CONFIG_PATH = u'/Users/boatfolder/Library/Preferences/PyCharm2019.1'
SYSTEM_PATH = u'/Users/boatfolder/Library/Caches/PyCharm2019.1'

回答6:

Use Tools -> Create Command-line Launcher which will install a python script where you can just launch the current working folder using charm .

Very important!

Anytime you upgrade your pyCharm you have to re-create that command line tool since its just a python script that points to a pyCharm configuration which might be outdated and will cause it to fail when you attempt to run charm .

/home/nikhil/pycharm-community-2018.1.1/bin/

and then type:

./pycharm.sh

回答9:

On Mac OSX

Update 2019/05 Now this can be done in the JetBrains Toolbox app. You can set it once with the Toolbox, for all of your JetBrain IDEs.


As of 2019.1 EAP, the Create Commmand Line Launcher option is not available in the Tools menu anymore. My solution is to use the following alias in my bash/zsh profile:

Make sure that you run chmod -x ...../pycharm to make the binary executable.

# in your ~/.profile or other rc file to the effect.

alias pycharm="open -a '$(ls -r /Users/geyang/Library/Application\ Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/PyCharm-P/**/PyCharm*.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm)'"


回答10:

Easy solution without need for pathes:

open -b com.jetbrains.pycharm



You can set it as alias for every-day easier usage (put to your .bash_rc etc.):

alias pycharm='open -b com.jetbrains.pycharm'

Usage:

pycharm .
pycharm file.py


回答11:

The included utility that installs to /usr/local/bin/charm did not work for me on OS X, so I hacked together this utility instead. It actually works!

#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ -z "$1" ]
then
  echo ""
  echo "Usage: charm <filename>"
  exit
fi
FILENAME=$1

function myreadlink() {
  (
  cd $(dirname $1)         # or  cd ${1%/*}
  echo $PWD/$(basename $1) # or  echo $PWD/${1##*/}
  )
}

FULL_FILE=`myreadlink $FILENAME`;

/Applications/PyCharm\ CE.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm $FULL_FILE


回答12:

Update: My answer no longer works as of PyCharm 2018.X

On MacOS, I have this alias in my bashrc:

alias pycharm="open -a /Applications/PyCharm*.app"

I can use it like this: pycharm <project dir or file>

The advantage of launching PyCharm this way is that you can open the current dir in PyCharm using pycharm . (unlike /Applications/PyCharm*.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm . which opens the PyCharm application dir instead)


Update: I switched to JetBrains Toolbox to install PyCharm. Finding PyCharm has gotten a bit more complex, but so far I was lucky with this monster:

alias pycharm="open -a \"\$(ls -r  /Applications/apps/PyCharm*/*/*/PyCharm*.app | head -n 1 | sed 's/:$//')\""


回答13:

After installing on kubuntu, I found that my pycharm script in ~/bin/pycharm was just a desktop entry:

[Desktop Entry]                                                                                                                                                                                                 
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=PyCharm Community Edition
Icon=/snap/pycharm-community/79/bin/pycharm.png
Exec=env BAMF_DESKTOP_FILE_HINT=/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/pycharm-community_pycharm-community.desktop /snap/bin/pycharm-community %f
Comment=Python IDE for Professional Developers
Categories=Development;IDE;
Terminal=false
StartupWMClass=jetbrains-pycharm-ce

Obviously, I could not use this to open anything from the command line:

$ pycharm setup.py
/home/eldond/bin/pycharm_old: line 1: [Desktop: command not found
/home/eldond/bin/pycharm_old: line 4: Community: command not found

But there's a hint in the desktop entry file. Looking in /snap/pycharm-community/, I found /snap/pycharm-community/current/bin/pycharm.sh. I removed ~/bin/pycharm (actually renamed it to have a backup) and then did

ln -s /snap/pycharm-community/current/bin/pycharm.sh pycharm

where again, I found the start of the path by inspecting the desktop entry script I had to start with.

Now I can open files with pycharm from the command line. I don't know what I messed up during install this time; the last two times I've done fresh installs, it's had no trouble.



回答14:

Useful information for some:

On Linux, installing PyCharm as a snap package automatically creates the command-line launcher named pycharm-professional, pycharm-community, or pycharm-educational. The Tools | Create Command-line Launcher command is therefore not available.
