Pylsp not using .flake8 file inside project for error checking.

Hello! I'm new to Helix and I've just set it up for coding in Python. I've been trying to configure flake8 with pylsp for showing me errors within the editor and this is the configuration I've used inside ~/.config/helix/languages.toml:

[[language]]
name = "python"
scope = "source.python"
injection-regex = "python"
file-types = ["py"]
shebangs = ["python"]
roots = []
comment-token = "#"
language-server = { command = "pylsp" }
# TODO: pyls needs utf-8 offsets
config = { pylsp.plugins.flake8.config = ".flake8" }
indent = { tab-width = 4, unit = "    " }

Even though I've set the path for the flake8 configuration to be .flake8, Helix still ends up using the default configuration and doesn't really show proper errors. Any thoughts?

You might also need pylsp.plugins.flake8.enabled = true in the config key. The list of valid config values can be found at https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server/blob/develop/CONFIGURATION.md#python-language-server-configuration.

@sudormrfbin Thanks! Seems to work out pretty well.
