Netbeans 8.2 Python Plugin

Question

I just downloaded the most recent version of NetBeans 8.2 with the JDK, specifically the Windows x64 version from here .

The issue I'm having is when I open it and go to Available Plugins, there's no option for Python plugins.

No Python Plugin

Anyone know if there's a python plugin I can find externally to use with this? Looking in the Installed Plugins, there's no indication of a pre-existing Python plugin, btw.

Answer 1

There is no official plugin for 8.2. A beta is in development ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/NBPython ). You can download the and install the 8.1 version ( http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/61688/python ).
1) Unzip 2) Start Netbeans IDE 8.2 3) Tools -> Plugins -> Downloaded -> [Add Plugins ...] open the extracted files 4) install all plugins 5) Restart IDE

Best of luck cause your mileage may very ;-)
