Important
First time users are strongly advised to read the PyDev Getting Started which explains how to properly configure PyDev.

Standalone install
PyDev is available in LiClipse, which provides a hassle free (and OS-native) experience to install it.

Note that by supporting LiClipse you also directly support the development PyDev itself.

See the LiClipse homepage for details on getting it.

Also, if using Django-templates, Mako or RST, LiClipseis the recommended install as it provides support for those languages
(among others such as C++, CoffeScript, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, etc.), along with theming support -- which is especially
nice for dark themes -- if you're into it :)

Install as Plugin
If you wish to install PyDev as a plugin in an existing Eclipse installation, make sure you meet the requirements below and
follow the Quick Install from the right-bar (or follow the step-by-step from Getting Started Guide > Install).

Requirements
Java 8: Important: If you don't have java 8, the update process may appear to succeed, but PyDev will simply not show
in the target installation. See Getting Started Guide > Install for troubleshooting.

At least one of:

Python (2.6 or newer)


Jython (2.6 or newer)
IronPython (2.6 or newer) - excluding 2.7.6 and 2.7.7 have a bug which makes them unusable in PyDev.

and

Eclipse 4.6 (Neon) onwards

Note if using Eclipse standalone: Python andIronPython require only the Platform Runtime Binary(get
from http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads - download around 45-50 MB), and Jython also requiresJDT.

Requirements for Profiling


To profile your programs, PyVmMonitor is required and integrated through the profile view inside PyDev (window > show
view > other > PyDev > profile).

Troubleshooting install problems


To troubleshoot install problems, please visit the Getting Started Guide > Install page.

Need to use older Eclipse/Java/Python

requisites.

Eclipse 4.5, Java 8: PyDev 5.2.0
