I want to add Shortcut to open specific URL (let say localhost:3000) in IntelliJ. I read the documentation and try to figure it out on my own by messing around the Keymap, but No luck. Is this possible? What I want is to create a shortcut to open specific URL. If my custom shortcut is Alt +; then it should open http://localhost:3000. Is this feasible in IntelliJ?
Yes you can do this with the following steps...
1. Define an external Tool for Localhost
File > Settings...
Tools > External Tools
Define your Tool with
Program: C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe (in Windows 10)
Arguments: http://localhost:3000
2. Define your shortcut
File > Settings...
Keymap
Choose External Tools > Localhost on the right side
Right click and choose 'Add Keyboard Shortcut'
Type your Shortcut
You should see it in the dialog
3. Use the Shortcut
Hope it helps.

Would specifically like to edit /etc/hosts without leaving the Intellij window. How can I open this file while working on some arbitrary project in Intellij?
Clicking on the File menu (Left hand corner) then clicking Open does the trick, just like most applications.
To set a shortcut for that File Open click you can click on File then settings (Ctrl+Alt+S) and then under Keymap search for File Open. Right click open and you should see the add shortcut dialog. I'm a bit surprised there isn't a default shortcut for this.
I've added a server in PhpStorm deployment settings but the Tools -> Deployment -> Upload to menu is still greyed out.
You need to specify a deployment path mapping in your server. Even if it's just the root path, you need to enter /. PhpStorm doesn't do it automatically.
Go to your server in deployment settings, click the 'Mappings' tab and enter slash (or your mapping) in the 'Deployment path on server' field. You don't need to enter a web path. Deployment menu should be ungreyed now.
In version 2019.2, if you dont set the path to / in mapping, it will grayed out.
Previous version, you could leave it blank
Also, if your local path (inside mappings configuration) is not your project root, you have to click on the deployable folder in the project tree to enable the menu.
Also, if the Deployment menu is completely missing at the bottom of the context menu, then set up a default server.
Click the server with the check mark to make a server the default option for a project.
Then you will get this additional menu when you right click on a file, folder, or the project.
I also encountered this issue in PyCharm Professional 2022.1.
Since the aforementioned solutions did not work for me, and it took me some time to resolve, I am providing the solution I found.
Clicking on Tools -> Deployment -> upload to servername was not working for me no matter what I tried.
However, I could right-click on the main project folder (on the left of the PyCharm window, where the project folder/file structure is visible). This right-click opens a menu, where there is an option for deployment -> upload to servername.
Once I clicked this, not only it worked, but the classical way (Tools -> Deployment -> upload to ) ceased to be grayed out also.
If deployment was available and suddenly no longer works, confirm that your credentials didn't get wiped from the deployment settings (Connection tab).
If any of these answers don't help, because you can't even see the server menu, you probably have the Remote Hosts Access plugin disabled.
Go to settings, go to the plugins, and enable Remote Hosts Access.
Please check if the following options are enabled in settings(Ctrl+Alt+S). It goes uncheck if Php Storm crashes. Check the below options and restart the editor.
This works for ver 2017.2.1
Also, check Windows->Store current layout as the default just to make sure in the future you can restore the layout.
It's possible the opened file in the editor belongs to a External Library (bottom of project tree).
These External library files can't be deployed.
I'd like to be able to click a source line in my code reviews, and have intellij open that file / line. We use Phabracator for reviews, which has a setting specifically for this -- for example, one can use
txmt://open/?url=file:///Users/alincoln/editor_links/%r/%f&line=%l
to jump to source lines in TextMate. Is there an analogue for IntelliJ?
EDIT: there is now a better option, explained in Create a web browser link that opens a file in Intellij. Possible?.
In Phabricator, under Settings -> Display Preferences, set Editor Link to
http://localhost:63343/api/file//path/to/source/%r/%f:%l
Replace /path/to/source with the actual path.
This works for me with PyCharm 2016.1.
Earlier versions used port 63342 instead of 63343.
Update: You may need to enable external connections and unsigned requests in IntelliJ's built-in server, as explained in https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.2/debugger.html#d1397508e188.
I am using IntelliJ with the Python plugin and the Remote Interpreter feature to communicate with my Vagrant VM. It sets up the remote interpreter correctly to use my VM's interpreter. But, I use a custom PYTHONPATH in my VM, and I would like IntelliJ to recognize that path and include the modules in that path when developing.
How do I configure IntelliJ/PyCharm's remote interpreter to use a custom PYTHONPATH on the VM?
For PyCharm 5 (or 2016.1), you can:
select Preferences > Project Interpreter
to the right of interpreter selector there is a "..." button, click it
select "more..."
pop up a new "Project Interpreters" window
select the rightest button (named "show paths for the selected interpreter")
pop up a "Interpreter Paths" window
click the "+" buttom > select your desired PYTHONPATH directory (the folder which contains python modules) and click OK
Done! Enjoy it!
Instructions for editing your PYTHONPATH or fixing import resolution problems for code inspection are as follows:
Open Preferences (On a Mac the keyboard short cut is ⌘,).
Look for Project Structure in the sidebar on the left under Project: Your Project Name
Add or remove modules on the right sidebar
EDIT: I have updated this screen shot for PyCharm 4.5
To me the solution was to go to
Run > Edit Configuration > Defaults > Python
then manage the
"Add content roots to PYTHONPATH" and
"Add source root to PYTHONPATH"
checkboxes, as well as setting the "Working directory" field.
If you have set up your own Run/Debug Configurations then you might want to go to
Run > Edit Configuration > Python > [Whatever you called your config]
and edit it there.
My problem was that I wanted to have my whole repository included in my PyCharm 2016.2 project, but only a subfolder was the actual python source code root. I added it as "Source Root" by right clicking the folder then
Mark directory as > Source Root
Then unchecking "Add content roots to PYTHONPATH" and checking "Add source root to PYTHONPATH" in the Run/Debug config menu. I then checked the folder pathing by doing:
import sys
logger.info(sys.path)
This outputed:
[
'/usr/local/my_project_root/my_sources_root',
'/usr/local/my_project_root/my_sources_root',
'/usr/lib/python3.4', '/usr/lib/python3.4/plat-x86_64-linux-gnu',
'/usr/lib/python3.4/lib-dynload',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages',
'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages'
]
However, without the fix it said:
[
'/usr/local/my_project_root/my_sources_root',
'/usr/local/my_project_root', <-- NOT WANTED
'/usr/lib/python3.4',
'/usr/lib/python3.4/plat-x86_64-linux-gnu',
'/usr/lib/python3.4/lib-dynload',
'/usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages',
'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages'
]
Which meant I got the project root folder included. This messed up the pathing for me.
This was done with PyCharm Community 2019.1
Go to Project Settings
Go to Project Structure and right click on the directory you want to add and click "Sources"
This should add the directory to your pythonpath
An update to the correct answer phil provided, for more recent versions of Pycharm (e.g. 2019.2).
Go to File > Settings and find your project, then select Project Interpreter. Now click the button with a cog to the right of the selected project interpreter (used to be a ...).
From the drop-down menu select Show All... and in the dialog that opens click the icon with a folder and two sub-folders.
You are presented with a dialog with the current interpreter paths, click on + to add one more.
In my experience, using a PYTHONPATH variable at all is usually the wrong approach, because it does not play nicely with VENV on windows. PYTHON on loading will prepare the path by prepending PYTHONPATH to the path, which can result in your carefully prepared Venv preferentially fetching global site packages.
Instead of using PYTHON path, include a pythonpath.pth file in the relevant site-packages directory (although beware custom pythons occasionally look for them in different locations, e.g. enthought looks in the same directory as python.exe for its .pth files) with each virtual environment. This will act like a PYTHONPATH only it will be specific to the python installation, so you can have a separate one for each python installation/environment. Pycharm integrates strongly with VENV if you just go to yse the VENV's python as your python installation.
See e.g. this SO question for more details on .pth files....
Latest 12/2019 selections for PYTHONPATH for a given interpreter.
Well you can do this by going to the interpreter's dialogue box. Click on the interpreter that you are using, and underneath it, you should see two tabs, one called Packages, and the other called Path.
Click on Path, and add your VM path to it.
In pycharm 5 follow this,
https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/help/configuring-python-interpreter-for-a-project.html
1)Open the Settings dialog box, and click Project Interpreter page.
2)In the Projects pane, choose the desired project.
3)For the selected project, choose SDK from the list of available Python interpreters and virtual environments.
In Intellij v2017.2 you can go to:
run > edit configurations > click ... next to the field 'Environment variables' > click the green + sign
Name= PYTHONPATH
value= your_python_path
Pycharm 2020.3.3 CE ZorinOS(Linux) File>Settings > Project Structure > {select the folder} > Mark as Source(blue folder icon) > Apply
To verify:
import sys
print(sys.path)
Selected path should be listed here.
There's a small feature I have been yearning about in intellij idea and I will give it a try in this forum, maybe it is already possible.
In brief: I want a button that opens the working folder of the project I am working on.
Since this is the folder I put my settings files I am doing the following operation dozens of times a day -
open the run/debug configuration.
go to my activbe project tab.
copy the working directory.
open run (win+r).
paste the folder path and press enter.
X dozens of times.
Is there a way to add a button somewhere that opens my working folder?
BTW: I know that in the project settings - External tools - I can add actions. but there is no workingFolder in the macros. is there a way to add the working folder? (eventhough a button would be better)
Thanks a lot.
If you need to manage files, why not do it right from IntelliJ? If you have to go to explorer, right click any file or folder in the project panel, and there's a "Show in Explorer" option in Windows (no default key mapping). There's also "Show Path" (ctrl+alt+F12), which lets you open Explorer to any parent directory of the selected file all the way up to the drive. Finally, "Copy Path" (ctrl+shift+C) will copy the absolute path to the clipboard. (This is in IDEA 10.5, but I know Copy Path has been there a long time.)
