How can I integrate DataBricks into PyCharm?

Editing notebooks on DataBricks is rather cumbersome because it lacks a lot of features IDEs like PyCharm have.

Another problem is that a DataBricks notebook comes with some local state which are not present on my computer.

How can I edit notebooks using PyCharm on my computer?

I know there is an sbt plugin but I don't want to bother with Scala.

Hello @Adam Arold @Jonathansmith @patrickhcostello @Adam Arold to integrate PyCharm with databricks you need to use " pip install databricks-connect " in command line and configure it with your cluster details. test command "databricks-connect test"

The documents are out for databricks-connect: https://docs.azuredatabricks.net/user-guide/dev-tools/db-connect.html

I've also written up about a few limitations I have found - some with workarounds: https://datathirst.net/blog/2019/3/7/databricks-connect-limitations
