  • Static analysis (through pyright-langserver)
  • Completions (though pyright-langserver)
  • Definitions (through pyright-langserver)
  • Hover (through pyright-langserver)
  • References (through pyright-langserver)
  • Formatting (through yapf)
  • Renaming (through pyright-langserver)
  • Import reorganization (through ruff)
  • Linting (through ruff, pyright-langserver)
  • Types (through pyright-langserver)

Building from source

  1. Install dependencies
    • node and npm
    • ruff
    • yapf
    • npm run install:all
  2. Build the LSP: cd ./packages/pyright && npm run build
  3. Mark file as executable: chmod +x ./packages/pyright/langserver.index.js
  4. Start LSP in your client of choice: ./packages/pyright/langserver.index.js --stdio

Setup

npm i -g @replit/pyright-extended

Neovim

An example setup for the Neovim editor looks something like the following:

local lspconfig = require 'lspconfig'
local configs = require 'lspconfig.configs'
local util = require 'lspconfig.util'
if not configs["pyright-extended"] then
  configs["pyright-extended"] = {
    default_config = {
      cmd = {'pyright-langserver', '--stdio'},
      filetypes = { "python" },
      autostart = true,
      root_dir = util.root_pattern('pyproject.toml'),
      single_file_support = true,
      settings = {
        python = {
          analysis = {
            autoSearchPaths = true,
            useLibraryCodeForTypes = true
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
end
lspconfig["pyright-extended"].setup{}
vim.lsp.set_log_level("INFO")

VSCode

To use pyright-extended in VS Code, you must build the extension from source.

  1. Install deps: npm run install:all
  2. Build the .vsix file: cd packages/vscode-pyright; npm run package, this generates a .vsix file
  3. In VS Code, go to extensions
  4. If you have Pylance, remove it, and reload
  5. If Pyright already exists, remove it, and reload
  6. In extensions, select "Install from VSIX..." and pick the .vsix file from step 2
  7. Make a main.py, start typing in code, and you should get context help

Updating from upstream and publishing

  1. git pull upstream main
  2. npm run build:lsp
  3. npm run publish:lsp (ensure you have proper NPM permissions)
