Code navigation, documentation lookup and completion for Python.

This mode support 2.6, 2.7, 3.3 and 3.4 Python versions and provide following features

• context-sensitive code completion
• jump to definitions
• find references
• view documentation
• virtual environment
• eldoc mode

All you need is install the package from Melpa:

M-x package-install RET anaconda-mode RET

vendor directory used to build Melpa package only. If you setup from git you can't use git submodules for dependency resolution. Clone this repository somewhere, add it to you load-path and do following command from project root:

pip install -r requirements.txt -t .

Anaconda mode comes with anaconda_mode.py server. This server allow you to use jedi package over jsonrpc api. Server choice first available port starting from 24970. If no host was specified loopback interface will be used. Anaconda mode will run this server automatically on first call of any anaconda-mode command. Anaconda mode detect active virtual environment through value of python-shell-virtualenv-path variable defined in python.el library. When you set it to actual virtualenv path next anaconda-mode command you call will restart server process in proper environment before performing this call. This allow anaconda processing virtual environment site-packages with minimum number of actions from your side. I strongly recommended you to use pyenv-mode or similar package to hold python-shell-virtualenv-path in actual state.

It's possible to use anaconda-mode on remote server when you connect to it using tramp. Setup process differs from local usage. You need to login on remote machine and install anaconda-mode server. You can download it directly from Melpa and unpack it to some directory. If you use virtual environment on remote server then you need to activate it before we continue. Now run anaconda_mode.py from shell:

. venv/bin/activate
python anaconda_mode.py 0.0.0.0

To tell anaconda-mode to connect to that server you need to run following command:

M-x anaconda-mode-remote

It will ask you to enter host and port information for remote server. In case of vagrant you can specify 127.0.0.1 as host part. To get proper completion you need to open your files with tramp addresses even for vagrant setup. This caused because of different relative paths on your local machine and inside vagrant. To stop this behavior and enable anaconda_mode.py server starts locally run command below:

M-x anaconda-mode-local

Here are interactive commands available with anaconda-mode

If goto definitions, assignments or usages cause multiple candidates you'll see advanced anaconda navigator buffer. You can automatically enable anaconda-mode in all python buffers with following code in your configuration

(add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'anaconda-mode)

anaconda-mode provide document function to eldoc-mode. All you need is enable eldoc-mode in addition to previous setup.

(add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'eldoc-mode)

If you're using proxy server, you have to make sure that the proxy is not used for communication with anaconda-mode:

export no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1"

Are very welcome. But any significant change has to be accompanied with tests, both for Emacs Lisp and Python code. To run the test suite, call:
