IMPORTANT

This version is in moderation and has not yet been approved. This means it doesn't show up under normal search.

  • Until approved, you should consider this package version unsafe - it could do very bad things to your system (it probably doesn't but you have been warned, that's why we have moderation).
  • This package version can change wildly over the course of moderation until it is approved. If you install it and it later has changes to this version, you will be out of sync with any changes that have been made to the package. Until approved, you should consider that this package version doesn't even exist.
  • You cannot install this package under normal scenarios. See How to install package version under moderation for more information.
  • There are also no guarantees that it will be approved.
WARNING

There are versions of this package awaiting moderation (possibly just this one). See the Version History section below.

spyder has passed automated validation. It may have or may still fail other checks like testing (verification).
NOTE: No required changes that the validator checks have been flagged! It is appreciated if you fix other items, but only Requirements will hold up a package version from approval. A human review could still turn up issues a computer may not easily find.

Guidelines

Guidelines are strong suggestions that improve the quality of a package version. These are considered something to fix for next time to increase the quality of the package. Over time Guidelines can become Requirements. A package version can be approved without addressing Guideline comments but will reduce the quality of the package.

  • This packages has used a function that doesn't have an automatic undo on uninstall, so it will also need an uninstall script. Please correcting that by adding a chocolateyUninstall.ps1 to the package to undo the action. More...
Notes

Notes typically flag things for both you and the reviewer to go over. Sometimes this is the use of things that may or may not be necessary given the constraints of what you are trying to do and/or are harder for automation to flag for other reasons. Items found in Notes might be Requirements depending on the context. A package version can be approved without addressing Note comments.

  • The IconUrl element in the nuspec file should be a valid Url. The reviewer will ensure the specified Url is valid. More...

spyder was exempted from virus scanning of this version.

The reason given for the exemption was:
Package contains file(s) too big to be uploaded to VirusTotal!

The package scanner had problems with the following files:

  • Spyder-Windows-x86_64.exe: File is too big to scan - the limit is 200MB and this file is 543.66MB
Description

Spyder is an open source, community-developed scientific environment and IDE written in Python, for Python

It combines the power of a comprehensive development tool with the speed of an interactive data
exploration package, all in one easy-to-use interface.

Features

  • Editor - work efficiently in a multi-language editor with a function/class browser,
    real-time code analysis tools (pyflakes, pylint, and pycodestyle), automatic code completion (jedi
    and rope), horizontal/vertical splitting, and go-to-definition.
  • Interactive console - harness the power of as many IPython consoles as you like with
    full workspace and debugging support, all within the flexibility of a full GUI interface. Instantly
    run your code by line, cell, or file, and render plots right inline with the output or in
    interactive windows
  • Documentation viewer - render documentation in real-time with Sphinx for any class or
    function, whether external or user-created, from either the Editor or a Console.
  • Variable explorer - inspect any variables, functions or objects created during your session.
    Editing and interaction is supported with many common types, including numeric/strings/bools,
    Python lists/tuples/dictionaries, dates/timedeltas, Numpy arrays, Pandas index/series/dataframes,
    PIL/Pillow images, and more.
  • Development tools - examine your code with the static analyzer, trace its execution with
    the interactive debugger, and unleash its performance with the profiler. Keep things organized
    with project support and a built-in file explorer, and use find in files to search across entire
    projects with full regex support.

Package Parameters

  • KeepPkgCache - retain the local package cache after install eg. choco install spyder --package-parameters='"/KeepPkgCache"'
  • NoRegistry - do not modify the registry with file associations eg. choco install spyder --package-parameters='"/NoRegistry"'
  • NoShortcuts - do not add shortcuts for the application eg. choco install spyder --package-parameters='"/NoShortcuts"'
  • RegisterPython - register the associated Python install as the system Python eg. choco install spyder --package-parameters='"/RegisterPython"'
  • User - install the package for the current user only eg. choco install spyder --package-parameters='"/User"'

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
