possible to run independently of editors such as vscode

[Frank Greico]

Is it possible to get the python language server to run independently of an editor such as vscode? IN my case I'm looking to see if I can get it to run an an aws lambda. Upon looking at the documentation it doesn't appear possible since the server and it's dependencies seem very vscode extension oriented.

This is a pure Python project and right now it doesn't work with VSCode.

Please read the text of pyls --help to see how to start it as a TCP server you can connect to from a client that implements the protocol.
