Opening Pycharm from terminal with the current path

Question

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?

Answer 1

open -na "PyCharm CE.app" . 

worked for me in MacOS & PyCharm Community edition

Answer 2

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

charm .

Answer 3

This worked for me:

pycharm-community .

Answer 4

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.
