How to use a python language server in Gitpod (VSCode for Web)

184 Views Asked by At

Pylance isn't available for non-Microsoft builds of Vscode. I'm trying to have some kind of replacement, but everything I find isn't what Pylance does.

How could I get something in Gitpod Web that does color coding and intellisense? Linting would also be nice, but there are plenty of those that I could use.

I've found Pyright, which I wanted to work, but it doesn't seem to. It could be that it's broken in the same way that Pylance is in Gitpod. I have installed the vscode extension, but when I go to settings and type `python.languageServer: "", Pyright isn't one available. Is pyright a language server? I've heard that it is.

Is there any other language servers for python available on Gitpod Web? Surely anyone else working in python on Gitpod Web has come across this issue.
