Hi Gleen,

Our project facilities are very simple at this moment, nothing like Eclipse or other IDEs. Our projects provide things like:

a) A preferential view of the directory where you have your project.

b) It's own PYTHONPATH

c) Some integration with git and mercurial.


To create a project you need to follow these steps:

1. Go to:

View > Windows and toolbars > Project Explorer

2. In the pane that opens to the left you need to click on the folder icon on the top.

3. Then you need to select a directory for your workspace, which in your case has to be the parent directory of your project's dir.

4. After that, you need to do a right-click on the Project Explorer pane, and then go to

Import > An existing directory

to select your project's dir. If everything went correctly, then you should see your project's files in the pane.

We know this is a bit cumbersome and we plan to provide a simpler way to create projects in the future. Also I have to tell you that we don't have javascript syntax-highlighting right now, but we plan to add it in 2.2.1.

Cheers,
Carlos

Another newbie joins with plaintive cry for help. I am struggling to understand Spyder project with existing source code. I have Python CGI running in Apache (forced to do it this way). I need a good editor with source browser - I don't have need (yet) for more advanced IDE capabilities. In the past I used Netbeans for my Python work (since I come from Java), but NB v.7 has totally dropped Python support. I never did get used to Eclipse.

My work setup is this:
- local Apache server with Python CGI.
- I edit the py files in place and test directly with web browser.
- When ready for new release, copy files from Apache to local dir and commit to subversion.

So I need to create a project that contains the files in the Apache deployment tree. I want to add html, javascript and CSS files to the project, too.
I cannot figure out how all this is supposed to be done in Spyder.
Also how would I manage another Python project that has a different home directory? My Netbeans experience of a project is that it is equivalent to a collection of source directories. The source directories can be scattered around - they do not need to have the same parent dir. The project file is stored in a different, arbitrary location. Workspace is not a concept I have dealt with.

Pearls of wisdom please?
