Python Virtualenvs

[IceS2]

Hello folks! Amazing work!
I'd really love to try Helix out instead of my Neovim setup but I'd love to understand if it works with Python Virtualenvs. I've been trying to find an answer to this but didn't

Thanks a lot (=

[kirawi]

Aren't virtualenvs related to the LSP instead?

[IceS2]

Hey Kirawi! Thanks for the reply and so sorry for asking about those errors that weren't related. I thought it could be internal to Helix...

I actually forgot to add the shebang line and now it's actually trying to initialize it but I'm running into another error.

2023-01-02T15:14:59.703 helix_term::application [ERROR] Language Server: Method not found client/registerCapability

Tomorrow I'll try to debug a bit more and see if I understand what's going on. My bet is that I need to pass some extra configuration to pyright as it's being passed config = {} at the moment.

As for the Clipboard... It was an issue between the chair and the keyboard ;P
(I forgot to select the line before yanking since I'm used to vim)

[kirawi]

I think the LSP will probably work despite that error.

[IceS2]

I tested it quickly with <Space + a> and it prompted me a message saying that the LSP wasn't working, that's why I think it might be a blocking error

[kirawi]

To help diagnose why the LSP may not be working, you could start helix in a higher logging verbosity mode via hx -v.

Alright... I've got a curious update... After coming back again today for some more testing... It just works

Have you tried turn it off and on again? 🤷

Thanks a lot for all the support Kirawi! I'll try to test it out a little since it seems amazing and I'll continue keeping an eye on the Issue about a File Tree (=

I'll leave here the configuration that made it work just in case anyone searches for this (=

1. languages.toml

[[language]]
name = "python"
language-server = { command = "pyright-ls-helix" }
config = {}

2. pyright-ls-helix script (Using a symlink just to have it on path ln -s $HOME/.config/helix/scripts/pyright-ls.sh /usr/local/bin/pyright-ls-helix)

#!/usr/bin/bash

if [[ $VIRTUAL_ENV ]]; then
  python_path="${VIRTUAL_ENV}/bin/python"
else
  python_path="python"
fi

export PYTHONPATH=python_path

pyright-langserver --stdio

Just in case someone needs this later, I made a small change to make it also work for conda:

if [[ $VIRTUAL_ENV ]]; then
  python_path="${VIRTUAL_ENV}/bin/python"
elif [[ $CONDA_PREFIX ]] ; then
  python_path="${CONDA_PREFIX}/bin/python"
else
  python_path="python"
fi

export PYTHONPATH=python_path
