Pre-requisites
- Anypoint studio
- Python installation
Anypoint Studio is a powerful IDE powered by Mulesoft that makes integration development a breeze! Python's power can accelerate development when added to it✨
Our goal in this blog is to install Python and then play around with it
-
Python installation in Anypoint Studio
-
Setting up a Python project
-
Developing Python code for Mule projects
Let’s get started 🥳
Installing Python software in Anypoint studio
Prior to proceeding, you will need to install Python on your computer.
- Open the Anypoint studio
- Click Help or ALT+H
- Select install new software
- In the option available use this URL https://pydev.org/updates/

- Then a Dialogue box like this appears:
- Click on select all and trust selected!
- Once the progress of the installation is completed, restart the studio.
- After restarting we can see! we can use the create the python projects, within our mule projects, or either way as desired!
go to file→ new → other → pydev
How to create a python project in the studio
click file→ new → other→ pydev→ pydevproject- Choose a name for your project
- Choose the Python interpreter from the installed location, or other options would work fine as well
- You need to create a folder within the project, and then you need to create a file with the .py extension
- Write your desired Python code:
- Click run as and select python run.
- This should work well ✨
How to add/run python files within mule projects
- Create a separate folder in the desired destination within the mule projects
- Then create a file with a .py extension
- Click run as python run
This should work as desired.
