[ckan-dev] Can you recommend me some IDE tools or other script tools or something else during your developing and debugging CKAN project.

Perhaps you'll find the easiest way to get started is with Eclipse and
PyDev (Google is your friend - lots of documentation on this)

They key is to set up Eclipse to work with your Python virtual env.  I
run  "paster serve development.ini"  inside Eclipse, and when I make a
json call or navigate to a page that reaches a breakpoint, Eclipse
fires up the debugger.  Remote debugging is also possible.

Hope that helps,
