pycharm remote interpreter with two factor authentication - python

I would like to use PyCharm with a remote interpreter (in fact using the remote directory structure). The server I am connecting to has two factor authentication which requires a password and time changing code.
How do I setup a login so that PyCharm prompts me for the one time use code?
Will PyCharm use the remote directory structure as I would like or will it keep saving things locally?

Using PyCharm on a remote server

I never used a server before (only my local machine), and recently I was given a server with Python files on it. I was also given SSH key and a password.
I'm trying to connect PyCharm to the server from my local machine so that I can write code on my local machine, upload the code to the server, and use code from existing files on the server.
The only website I found is this, and I followed the instructions to create an SSH interpreter, but I'm not sure what to do next (in order to see the files, write files to the server, etc,).

Run a script located on remote server using python

I have a python script located on a remote server with SSH enabled. That script displays a lot of debug messages displayed while executing. I want to trigger this script using another python script which is on my local system and depending on the output of the earlier script, I want to proceed further. While doing all this, I want the display messages on the remote server to be displayed on my local system as well. Basically, I want to view whatever output is thrown by the remote script during the course of the script, on my local system. I am able to trigger the script using paramiko but I am neither able to check whether the script on the remote server is running nor am I able to view it's output. Is there any way to do it? Already tried conn.recv(65535) but to no avail.
In my experience I found python fabric module easier than using paramiko. If you want to execute local script on remote machine using fabric. You just need to upload them using put() and then call run() api.

Run executable in Desktop mode with Django / Python on IIS / Windows

The idea:
There is a Node.JS server which sends a request to the IIS server which is running Django / Python. It will send two files to the server which need to be converted with a program which needs to be run in the foreground mode.
So I already looked around in pretty much everything related to IIS and the running of executables here on SO, but still haven't got it working.
I got the following code to run the application from Django:
subprocess.call("C:\example.exe")
There will be probably be some serious security issues (although the server is only reachable from the local network) with the following setup, but here it is:
I'm running a Django application on IIS.
I've set the Application Pool Identity to my local user
I've given "Full Control" permission to "Everyone"
When the subprocess call gets executed it will add the program to my Background Processes with the USER being set to my local user.
Questions:
How do I make the program start in Desktop Mode?
Should I perhaps add another step (start another service) which will then start the program?
Edit:
Could I perhaps make a file watcher which watches if files get stored on the Windows Server and then triggers an executable based on that?

IntelliJ IDEA - how to map remote PYTHONPATH to local environment?

I'm using python remote interpreter in IntelliJ(13.1), and using "composes" modules which are installed on server.
By importing the module like follwing, I can use the module without any problem, but I get warn "No module named composes".
import composes
And I can't get the auto complete of the module in editor.
Do I need to map the remote PYTHONPATH to local?
If so, please tell me how to do that.
I found some documentation for this:
http://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/quickstart/configuring_interpreter.html
I think best way is remote SSH interpreter. Check this out.
Edit: But don't forget. If you choose remote interpreter, you can't use your local modules.
Edit2:
1) Add deployment server from Tool->Deployment->Configuration
2) Add remote interpreter from File->Settings->Project Interpreter->Add remote And select the Deployment Configuration for FTP connection and can send to server your local files
3) And now you can upload your files to server from Pycharm. For this Right click to project folder->Upload to xxx. If all configuration is okay, now your files will upload to server and you can use auto-completion for your local files.
If it doesn't work, please try File->Invalidate cache. And let it delete all cache and download over it again.

How can I create an local webserver for my python scripts?

I'm looking to use a local webserver to run a series of python scripts for the user. For various unavoidable reasons, the python script must run locally, not on a server. As a result, I'll be using HTML+browser as the UI, which I'm comfortable with, for the front end.
I've been looking, therefore, for a lightweight web server that can execute python scripts, sitting in the background on a machine, ideally as a Windows service. Security and extensibility are not high priorities as it's all running internally on a small network.
Should I run a native python webserver as a Windows service (in which case, how)? Or is it just as easy to install Apache onto the user's machine and run as CGI? Since this is all local, performance is not an issue either.
Or am I missing something obvious?
Don't waste a lot of time creating Windows service.
Don't waste a lot of time on Windows Apache.
Just make a Python service that responds to HTTP requests.
Look at https://docs.python.org/2/library/basehttpserver.html
https://docs.python.org/3/library/http.server.html for version 3
Python offers an HTTP server that you can extend with your server-side methods.
Look at http://docs.python.org/library/wsgiref.html
Python offers a WSGI reference implementation that makes your server easy and standards-compliant.

"I'm trying to avoid making the user run python stuff from the command prompt."
I don't see how clicking a web page is any different from clicking desktop icons.
Starting a web server based on Python is relatively easy, once you have the web server. First, build the server. Later, you can make sure the server starts. Let's look at some ways.
Your user can't use a random browser to open your local page. They need a bookmark to launch "localhost:8000/myspecialserverinsteadofthedestop/" That bookmark can be a .BAT file that (1) runs the server, (2) runs firefox with the proper initial URL.
You can put the server in the user's start-this menu.
You can make your Python program a windows "service".
Best way is to make your own local server by using command prompt.
Make a new folder say Project
Make a new folder inside project & name it as "cgi-bin"(without quotes)
Paste your .py file inside the cgi-bin folder
Open cmd and change to the directory from which you want to run the server and type "python -m CGIHTTPServer"(without quotes)
Minimize the cmd window & open your browser and type "localhost:8000/cgi-bin/yourpythonfilename.py"(without quotes).
The wasiest step would be navigate to folder where your files are located and running http.server module
cd /yourapp
python3 -m http.server
the you should see something like this in console
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ...
Running a native python webserver as a windows service should be a no brainer. Check out the documentation for writing windows services (win32api, ActiveState python) in python and also the documentation for subclassing BaseHttpServer and SimpleHttpServer.
BTW: I had a similar question on stackoverflow: How to stop BaseHTTPServer.serve_forever() in a BaseHTTPRequestHandler subclass?
Basically, you subclass BaseHTTPServer (you have to anyway...) and then... but just read the accepted answer - it set me on the right track!
