Package Status Travis Build Status Test Coverage Python Versions Latest Version License

collective.recipe.vscode is the buildout recipe for Visual Studio Code lover who wants python autocomplete and intelliSense features while developing python Buildout based project, normally buildout eggs are not available in python path even if you provide virtualenv python path. This tool will help not only adding eggs path as python extraPath but also you can manage per project basis vscode settings for linter, autoformatting.

A general question may arise that why we will use this tool, whether we can create Visual Studio Code project settings easily (we have better knowledge over Visual Studio Code configuration)? Well i completely agree with you, but if you want to get benefited from Visual Studio Code autocompletion feature (basically I am lover of autocompletion), you have to add all eggs links and it is hard to manage eggs links manually if the size of project is big (think about any Plone powered project), beside it is good practice allways use project specific linter path. For example my global flake8 linter doesn't work for my python3 project!

Install collective.recipe.vscode is simple enough, just need to create a section for vscode to your buildout. Before using collective.recipe.vscode, if you are going to use linter feature, make those are added in eggs section or globally installed.

Example Buildout:

[buildout]
parts += vscode

[vscode]
recipe = collective.recipe.vscode
flake8-enabled = True
flake8-path = ${buildout:directory}/bin/flake8
black-enabled = True
black-args = ----line-length 88

You can also use the following to include the vscode recipe in all your buildouts automatically

Modify/Add ~/.buildout/default.cfg:

[buildout]
_to_always_include_vscode = ${vscode:recipe}

[vscode]
recipe = collective.recipe.vscode
_to_remove_buildout_warning = ${buildout:_to_always_include_vscode}
