python-lsp-server VS jedi-language-server

Python LSP Server works great, is easier to install and even offers some optional extensions.

I suggest looking for blog posts about this, you're gunnuh wanna pick out a plugin manager and stuff. It's kind of like a package manager for neovim. You can install everything manually but usually you manually install a plugin manager and it gives you commands to manage the rest of your plugins.

These two plugins are the bare minimum in my view.

Treesitter gives you much better syntax highlighting based on a parser for a given language.

This plugin helps you connect to a given language LSP quickly with sensible defaults. You more or less pick your language from here and copy paste a snippet, and then install the relevant LSP:

For Python you'll want pylsp. For JavaScript it will depend on what frontend framework you're using, I probably can't help you there.

pylsp itself takes some plugins and you'll probably want them. https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server

Best of luck! Happy hacking.

I came at the tail end of https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server/issues/195. The possibility of me sponsoring a fix came up, and I’m on board with it, but the other contributor never replied.

I haven't used pylint, but I find mypy with python-lsp-server extremely easy to use with nvim-lspconfig, especially on Arch linux.

Whatever you use, make sure you have syntax highlighting, completion and error checking! I'm using pylsp and shellcheck in emacs, but those or similar options should work in any IDE, replacing much of what made IDEs unique in former times.

Perhaps unrelated, from my experience, pylsp is better than pyright, see https://github.com/python-lsp/python-lsp-server/.

I am finally starting to use lsp for python development. I am using pylsp as LS.

I'm talking about this python LSP server (the command is pylsp that's why).

Another example, you can setup python-lsp-server with nvim-lspconfig (lsp server also needs to be installed globally or in virtualenv) and they have a plugin for black which you can then install in the same virtualenv and just use lsp to format the code instead of formatter.nvim.

Do you use any lsp (like pylsp or pyright)? If yes, did you setup it to use proper python / did you activate venv?

The lspconfig github only shows basic config. I've tried adding configs from this site into settings = {} as you can see in the imgur link, but this does nothing. Can anyone nudge me in the right direction so I can figure this out? Thank you very much!

Use jedi-language-server: sometimes pyright doesn't work, especially in virtual environments.

I do not think it is possible to use multiple at the same time 🤔. There is also https://github.com/pappasam/jedi-language-server.

jedi-language-server

ok ... you right, so if you need work with python2 (for any reason...) you can use coc-jedi and try this: install jedi-language-server with pipx just do:

I use jedi-language-server: https://github.com/pappasam/jedi-language-server/, minimalistic lsp
