PyCharm
-
Unpack the PyCharm distribution archive that you downloaded to where you wish to install the program. We will refer to this destination location as your {installation home} below.
-
Open a console and cd into "{installation home}/bin" and type:
./pycharm.sh
to start the application. As a side effect, this will initialize various configuration files in the ~/.PyCharmCE2019.3 directory.
-
[OPTIONAL] Add "{installation home}/bin" to your PATH environment variable so that you may start PyCharm from any directory.
-
[OPTIONAL] To adjust the value of the JVM heap size, create ~/.PyCharmCE2019.3/config/pycharm.vmoptions (or pycharm64.vmoptions if using a 64-bit JDK), and set the -Xms and -Xmx parameters. To see how to do this, you can reference the vmoptions file under "{installation home}/bin" as a model.
By default, PyCharm stores all your settings under the ~/.PyCharmCE2019.3/config directory and uses ~/.PyCharmCE2019.3/system as a data cache. If you want to change these settings,
-
Open a console and cd into ~/.PyCharmCE2019.3/config
-
Create the file "idea.properties" and open it in an editor. Set the idea.system.path and/or idea.config.path variables as desired, for example:
idea.system.path=
/custom/system idea.config.path=/custom/config -
Note that we recommend to store data cache ("system" directory) on a disk with at least 1GB of free space.
Enjoy! i'm anly.
