Aptana / PyDev — Installing PyDev / Python Support for Aptana

UPDATE:

If you are looking for pydev on Aptana 3 beta, refer here: https://yuji.wordpress.com/2010/06/11/aptana-3-python-support-pydev-on-aptana-3-beta/

I’ve done this a few times, but each time I forget the process.  I always end up at the PyDev site and then find my way in Aptana.

You just need to go to Help > Install New Software

In the tooltip that pops up, hit hte checkbox next to Aptana PyDev, and follow the instructions as you continue through the guided installation.

Awesome integration.

By the way, I had an issue where the default editor for .py was set to something other than the “python” editor.  Make sure it has been set.
