VSCode extension is not conda aware
alcarney opened this issue · comments
Now that esbonio is available on conda-forge, it naturally follows that people would want to use that version instead of the one available on PyPi. However, the VSCode extension is currently hardcoded to use pip and while the auto install/update logic can be disabled (set esbonio.server.installBehavior to nothing and set esbonio.server.updateFrequency to never) it would be good to have the option of using conda.
The new proposed environment APIs in the Python extension look really promising for this!
Now that the 1.0 version of the extension will bundle the language server itself - and uses the environment API for interpreter selection this issue is most likely redundant now
