Python doesn't fire environment changed when creating a new environment

[mpekurin]

Environment data

• Language Server version: 2023.4.10
• OS and version: win32 x64 22621.1413
• Python version (and distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 3.10.10
• python.analysis.indexing: true
• python.analysis.typeCheckingMode: off

Code Snippet

import pip
import github

Repro Steps

1. Create an empty folder and open it in vscode.
2. Run Python: Create Environment... -> Venv.
3. After the environment is ready and python extension has selected it, install any package in the environment, e.g. pip install github.
4. Create a new python file in the folder and add 2 imports into it: import pip and import github.

Expected behavior

Pylance uses the newly created environment.

Pressing F12 (Go To Definition) on pip opens pip's __init__.py from the venv. Pylance doesn't show Import "github" could not be resolved error.

Actual behavior

Pylance continues to use global environment, even though after creating the environment python extension shows We have selected the following environment: \path\to\venv notification and the status bar shows that the venv interpreter is selected.

Pressing F12 (Go To Definition) on pip opens pip's __init__.py from the global environment. Pylance shows Import "github" could not be resolved error because (according to logs) it still tries to find the package in the global environment.

To make pylance actually use the created environment, the user have to do one of the following:

• Run Python: Restart Language Server.
• Run Developer: Reload Window.
• Reselect the interpreter used.
• Change any pylance setting.

Logs

I've had to remove 'add' and 'change' evens between [Info - 4:28:17 PM] and [Info - 4:28:50 PM] because github limits body to 65536 characters. These events were triggered by Python: Create Environment....

Thanks for the issue.

What is the path to your venv?

In order for Pylance to pick up changes to it, it has to be in the workspace itself. We watch for file changes in the workspace, but we can't watch for changes elsewhere (VS code provides us with the file watchers).

This works for me as long as the venv is in the workspace.

These sort of events should be in the log:

[Info  - 9:36:21 AM] (30692) SourceFile: Received fs event 'change' for path 'd:\Source\Testing\Testing_Newenv\.venv\Lib\site-packages\pygame\docs\generated\_static\pygame_tiny.png'

Looking at your log, it seems like the python path was never changed. It keeps showing this:

Whereas after I set the interpreter to the new virtual environment, I get something like so:

Do you perhaps have a pythonPath set in a pyrightconfig.json or a settings file?

If you look at the output for the Python extension, it should list the changing of the interpreter. Mine shows this:

Python interpreter path: .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe

What is the path to your venv?

The venv (c:\Users\mpekurin\Downloads\issue\.venv) was created in the opened workspace (c:\Users\mpekurin\Downloads\issue). Python: Create Environment... doesn't allow to set a path of venv it creates anyway.

In order for Pylance to pick up changes to it, it has to be in the workspace itself. We watch for file changes in the workspace, but we can't watch for changes elsewhere (VS code provides us with the file watchers).

This works for me as long as the venv is in the workspace.

These sort of events should be in the log

Yes, there was a bunch of 'add' and 'change' events triggered by the creation of the environment in the original log.

Looking at your log, it seems like the python path was never changed.

Yep. The path wasn't changed according to Python Language Server output but it was changed according to Python output:

Python interpreter path: .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe

If I perform anything described in the Actual behaviour, the server starts using the virtual environment (as expected):

[Info  - 1:31:30 PM] (12332) Setting pythonPath for service "issue": "c:\Users\mpekurin\Downloads\issue\.venv\Scripts\python.exe"

Whereas after I set the interpreter to the new virtual environment, I get something like so

Selecting an environment manually works as expected. The issue described happens only when a user creates an environment via Python: Create Environment... and the extension automatically selects it afterwards (shows We have selected the following environment message). As I understand, in this case features not related to the server (running, debugging, creating new terminals) work with the virtual environment while features that depend on the server (IntelliSense, code navigation) continue to think that the global interpreter is used.

Do you perhaps have a pythonPath set in a pyrightconfig.json or a settings file?

No. Moreover, I've tested the case on another computer that has never had neither vscode nor python installed and its behaviour has been exactly the same.

Okay thanks. This sounds like a bug in the Python extension. It may be forgetting to fire an event that indicates the interpreter changed.

I don't reproduce this issue myself, but you might want to double check what your Python extension version is.

I have the following:

Python extension: 2022.20.2

I also tried this one:

Python extension: 2023.1.10091012

Both of those worked for me.

[mpekurin]

Python extension is 2023.6.0. I'll check if the issue persists in older versions.

Thanks for the bug report! We investigate issues in order based on priority and severity, which includes the impact it has on your ability to use the extension to do productive work, and the number of people affected. If other users come forward and leave a comment demonstrating they are seeing/reproducing the problem then we will raise this issue's priority. Thanks for understanding and the patience!

Yep. The path wasn't changed according to Python Language Server output but it was changed according to Python output:

Given the path is changed event should be fired. Perhaps language server component doesn't subscribe to it correctly.

Reassigning to LS as things look good from environment side, we've to make sure pythonPath is correctly which probably happens here:

vscode-python/src/client/activation/languageClientMiddlewareBase.ts
