Docker Remote Debugging ======================= To connect to python remote interpreter inside docker, you have to make sure first, that Pycharm is aware of your docker. Go to *Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Docker*. If you are on linux, you can use docker directly using its socket `unix:///var/run/docker.sock`, if you are on Windows or Mac, make sure that you have docker-machine installed, then you can simply *Import credentials from Docker Machine*. .. image:: images/1.png Configure Remote Python Interpreter ----------------------------------- This repository comes with already prepared "Run/Debug Configurations" for docker. .. image:: images/2.png But as you can see, at the beginning there is something wrong with them. They have red X on django icon, and they cannot be used, without configuring remote python interpreter. To do that, you have to go to *Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment* first. Next, you have to add new remote python interpreter, based on already tested deployment settings. Go to *Settings > Project > Project Interpreter*. Click on the cog icon, and click *Add Remote*. .. image:: images/3.png Switch to *Docker Compose* and select `local.yml` file from directory of your project, next set *Service name* to `django` .. image:: images/4.png Having that, click *OK*. Close *Settings* panel, and wait few seconds... .. image:: images/7.png After few seconds, all *Run/Debug Configurations* should be ready to use. .. image:: images/8.png **Things you can do with provided configuration**: * run and debug python code .. image:: images/f1.png * run and debug tests .. image:: images/f2.png .. image:: images/f3.png * run and debug migrations or different django management commands .. image:: images/f4.png * and many others.. Known issues ------------ * Pycharm hangs on "Connecting to Debugger" .. image:: images/issue1.png This might be fault of your firewall. Take a look on this ticket - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-18913 * Modified files in `.idea` directory Most of the files from `.idea/` were added to `.gitignore` with a few exceptions, which were made, to provide "ready to go" configuration. After adding remote interpreter some of these files are altered by PyCharm: .. image:: images/issue2.png In theory you can remove them from repository, but then, other people will lose a ability to initialize a project from provided configurations as you did. To get rid of this annoying state, you can run command:: $ git update-index --assume-unchanged image_markuper.iml
