Atom
-
If you haven't yet, install Atom + autocomplete-python (When asked if you want to use Kite or Local Engine, pick local engine)
-
Make sure you have no other autocomplete engine on.
-
Make sure you have the autocomplete engine working for the native Python libraries. If it's not I recommend you start with a fresh install of atom and go back to step #1.
Autocomplete Working for Native Libraries.
- Go to your Atom Settings > Packages > autocomplete-python
- In the package's settings page, we will need to configure the following settings:
First the less important settings:
- Show Descriptions: ON - Recommended Option
- Case Insensitive: ON - Recommended Option
- Fuzzy Matches: ON - Recommended Option
- [required] Autocomplete Function Parameters - Recommended Option
Now to the ones that matter:
-
Use Kite-powered Completion: OFF - Recommended.
-
Output Provider Errors: ON - This will tell you if Jedi runs out of memory.
-
Python Executable Path
You can leave blank, or type in the path to your system's python, for example: C:/Python35/python.exe
If blank, Atom will automatically use your default system's python.
The only thing to be mindful is that you should probably make sure you are running a 64 bit version.
The 32-bit version is limited to 2GB and will likely not be enough for Jedi.
The system version is displayed when you launch python:
Python 3.5.2 (v3.5.2:4def2a2901a5, Jun 25 2016, 22:18:55) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64) < 64 bit
- Extra Paths for Packages
This is the most important setting. This tells the autocomplete engine where to "crawl" to find the stub files.
C:\Path\To\ironpython-stubs\stubs.min
If you have other libraries you would like to add like rpw, you add multiple paths using a semicolon.
C:\Path\To\ironpython-stubs\stubs.min ; C:\Path\To\revitpythonwrapper.lib
