Docker support #131

Requesting support for Docker and Docker Compose Run/Debug configuration. (EnvFile is great)

I'm not sure those particular run configuration expose necessary extension points, but I'd welcome such contribution!

Firstly, this plugin is a great idea and sorely needed. I managed to get EnvFile partially working with Docker container as Python interpreter. But there are a few problems:

  1. With PyCharm built-in env vars form, setting PYTHONPATH=foo/bar simply prepends that value to the rest of the existing var. When using EnvFile, it appears just to overwrite the whole var with the value, causing Python import errors.
  2. To authenticate with Google Cloud using host OS stored credentials, that directory can be mounted on the container during run (via PyCharm run config form), which works fine with EnvFile disabled, but with it enabled, the trick somehow stops working. These are what I have encountered so far. Unfortunately, I don't know enough Java to help.

How did you get it to work with the docker container?

I wouldn't say I got it properly working. With Docker image set as Python interpreter in PyCharm and EnvFile plugin enabled, I managed to run Python modules without errors. That required some tweaks and adjustments around the issues I mentioned initially. So I guess it just (partially) works.
