PyCharm includes an easy-to-use functionality for deploying files and code. Support for web development might come in the form of distinct project types for each framework, related Run/Debug options, gutter icons for navigating between views and templates, language-specific templates, code completion, as well as inspections.
Note: You must verify that PyCharm version 5.0 or a later version is being used for using the deployment feature at its full fledge. If you wish to deploy your code on a remote computer, you must have access to that host directly.
Step 1: As shown below, we need to create a web server in order to deploy code with PyCharm, by choosing Build, Execution, Deployment from the Settings menu found under the File tab.
Step 2: Now, in PyCharm professional, you can include all the parameters and configurations that are necessary for project deployment by clicking on the ‘+’ symbol which is for adding a new server.
Following server options will be available as shown in the screenshot below. Choose one as per your needs.
Step 3: Add the Name your server and click on OK button. Despite being added, the new server is still empty. Only the Web server address http://localhost, which is where you will actually browse the uploaded files, is displayed.
Step 4: Choose the location of the project files' upload directory. The path can also be manually entered or by pressing Shift + Enter. The following Deployment window will open up.
Once you are done specifying your server settings, click on OK button, and your server is all set.
When you choose Tools -> Deployment -> Browse Remote Host from the main menu, the Remote Host tool window will be displayed to the right of the PyCharm window, allowing you to confirm if your server is operational, i.e. connected and running successfully.
Additionally, PyCharm has a number of actions for comparing remote versions with the local versions. It is more dependable for the editor to compare local and remote versions using automatic deployments and a version control system.
