Starter Kit Python

This is part of the Emacs Starter Kit.

Starter kit Python

Support for the Python programming language.

Use Python’s python-mode.el instead of Emacs’ python.el

Replace the Python mode that comes with Emacs by the Python mode supplied by the Python distribution itself.

  
(autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python Mode." t)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.py\\'" . python-mode))
(add-to-list 'interpreter-mode-alist '("python" . python-mode))
  
(setq
 python-shell-interpreter "ipython"
 python-shell-interpreter-args ""
 python-shell-prompt-regexp "In \\[[0-9]+\\]: "
 python-shell-prompt-output-regexp "Out\\[[0-9]+\\]: "
 python-shell-completion-setup-code
   "from IPython.core.completerlib import module_completion"
 python-shell-completion-module-string-code
 "';'.join(module_completion('''%s'''))\n"
 python-shell-completion-string-code
   "';'.join(get_ipython().Completer.all_completions('''%s'''))\n")
  
  
  

Jedi documentation browser and auto-completion

If you use the Jedi auto-completion method, change the :tangle flag below to yes. It’s turned off by default because this is a plugin to a documentation system you have to install separately. See The Jedi Homepage for details.

(setq jedi:setup-keys t)
(add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'jedi:setup)
