Opening Pycharm from terminal with the current path

If you give in the command "atom ." in the terminal, the Atom editor opens the current folder and I am ready to code.

I am trying to achieve the same with Pycharm using Ubuntu: get the current directory and open it with Pycharm as a project.

Is there way to achieve this by setting a bash alias?

I know this is way old but I just had to do this. I created an alias for pycharm in my bashrc file.

alias pycharm='pycharm.sh $(pwd)'

nesting the pwd command allowed me to use the current directory I am in.

Since jetbrains says to use

pycharm.sh /your/dir

For me its:

pycharm.bat .

but I had to add an Environment Variable first using the path where pycharm.bat is located. In my case it was:

C:\Program Files\JetBrains\PyCharm Community Edition 2019.3.1\bin

(how to add an Environment Variable) Windows https://www.architectryan.com/2018/08/31/how-to-change-environment-variables-on-windows-10/

Ubuntu https://hackprogramming.com/2-ways-to-permanently-set-path-variable-in-ubuntu/

I'm using Pycharm Community Edition 2019.3.1 and for the life of me I couldn't find the "Command line launcher" everyone else is talking about so I had to resort to this method.

This was for Windows but hopefully it will give you some insight on figuring it out on Ubuntu!

PyCharm can be launched using the charm command line tool (which can be installed while getting started with PyCharm the first time).

charm .

This works for me:

alias atom_pycharm='~/pycharm/bin/pycharm.sh .'

Maybe you installed it to a different path, though - locate your pycharm.sh file and modify accordingly.

You have the usual bash tricks: if you want to run in the background, append an &, redirect stdout/stderr where you want etc.
