| This is my how-to on getting PyCharm-CE or IDEA to run on a Jetson Nano. Tested with PyCharm-CE 2019.1 Build 191.7479 | |
| The linux install package runs on a jetson nano, but with some performance impact: | |
| 1. There is no native fsnotifier for linux-aarch64 in the package, and it won't be selected by the application if it would | |
| be there. | |
| 2. inotify configuration is missing/not sufficient for PyCharm. Install https://gist.github.com/bittner/c7d1d49fe0c9af907f24 | |
| To get a native fsnotifier, you need to compile it from source, and you need to convince the application to select and start it. | |
| This is currently implemented in https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/pull/1140. As long as it is not yet integrated | |
| into the build, you need to do a few things to do it yourself. | |
| 3. Have a build machine (linux or windows - as of IDEA 2019.2, only linux works), with IntelliJ IDEA installed, and capable of a | |
| successful build: https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community#building-intellij-community-edition | |
| 3.1 Add the build file in python/build.xml to python. | |
| 3.2 change the allowed heap (-Xmx2G) and permanent (-XX:MaxPermSize=256m) values in build.xml and python/build.xml for the | |
| call_gant macro. This can be done on a machine with 8G of RAM, seems to speed things up, too. | |
| 4. Clone the Repository https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community, and apply the pull request | |
| https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/pull/1140 there. | |
| 5. Run the ant build file. The resulting package is in ./out/pycharm-ce/artifacts | |
| If you need to compile fsnotifier anew, do it on the Jetson nano with ./native/fsNotifier/linux/Jetson_make.sh, name it | |
| apropriately (fsnotifier-linux-aarch64) and copy it into the ./bin directory of the installation. | |
