However I am struggling to configure eclipse to work with splunk. So far I have installed Eclipse, Tortoise HG and Mercurial. I have opened my repository and attempted to specify the interpreter as splunks python. I have been following instructions from this similar question...</P> <P><A href="http://answers.splunk.com/answers/100884/how-test-python-in-eclipse.html">http://answers.splunk.com/answers/100884/how-test-python-in-eclipse.html</A></P> <P>In their example they have the python executable in the python27 directory which is inside the splunk bin directory.

In <CODE>$SPLUNK_HOME</CODE>, create a file <CODE>splunk_python.cmd</CODE>. Put the following in that file (change the path to whatever you have installed it as):</P> <PRE><CODE>echo off "C:\Program Files\Splunk\bin\splunk.exe" cmd python %* </CODE></PRE> <P>Now in Eclipse, create a new python interpreter, and point it at <CODE>C:\Program Files\Splunk\bin\splunk_python.cmd</CODE> (change the path to whatever you have installed it as)</P> <P>I was able to do something similar on Linux, and it works well.</P> Thu, 18 Sep 2014 18:08:15 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-to-configure-Eclipse-to-work-with-Splunk-python/m-p/130697#M1859 alacercogitatus 2014-09-18T18:08:15Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/How-to-configure-Eclipse-to-work-with-Splunk-python/m-p/130698#M1860 <P>Hi, thanks for your answer.
