venv does not activate on my manjaro system for zsh

[karrtikr]

          I just tested it again on my manjaro system and can confirm that the venv is not activated in zsh:

In my last #22881 (comment), I've tested it successfully on windows+wsl with zsh.

Her are the logs of my manjaro system with the last fix from #22881 (comment):

@matt-hires Based on your last comment #22881 (comment), do you mean to say that venv activation works for WSL + windows but not for your current system? If so, can you please provide screenshots on how you're determining whether the environment has activated?

[matt-hires]

That's correct. It's working on my Windows machine with wsl, but not on my manjaro linux system.

I checked if the venv was sourced with:

which pip

Which should show me the path to the pip in the venv directory, right?

[karrtikr]

Actually that's not always true. Try using which python.

[matt-hires]

here is a gif how i checked it:

[karrtikr]

Thanks, can you also provide the following #22900 (comment)? And lastly, the debug logs again please, make sure to use latest pre-release, thank you.

[matt-hires]

✅ Run 'Python: Clear cache and reload window' command

A screenshot when you hover over zsh:

Whether shell integration is actually working:

And lastly, the debug logs again please:
Python.log

[karrtikr]

Thanks a lot for this, at this point we need some help from VS Code to reliably predict whether shell integration is working or not: microsoft/vscode#205058. It seems that even though the environment is set for your case:

2024-02-13 06:09:04.848 [debug] Prepending environment variable PATH in collection with /home/matthias/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2024.1.10431006/pythonFiles/deactivate/zsh:/home/matthias/Development/src/cliargsparser/venv/bin:

It's not reflected in the terminal. If you click "Show environment contributions" in the previous screenshot, it seems like the PATH variable there isn't being set correctly.

[karrtikr]

I'm working on a temporary fix to remedy this: #22905, but it seems a long term solution has to come from VS Code at this point .

[matt-hires]

I guessed it might be something like this, due to the fact that the shell prompt correctly shows the venv python version.

And also thank you for your investigation into this.

[karrtikr]

Of course. If you don't mind could you test out https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python/actions/runs/7882029722/artifacts/1240529254 and see if it helps? You can use Extension: Install from VSIX to install the extension.

[karrtikr]

Actually, that wouldn't help in your case. Never mind.

[karrtikr]

Can you provide a screenshot of all variables that're supposed to be set in "Show environment contributions", and then check which those are set in terminal? For eg. You can run "echo $PATH" to see whether it's set.

[karrtikr]

Please use the latest pre-release before providing this info.

I just updated the Python extension to v2024.1.10441005 (pre-release). My log:
python.log

venv is not being activated in my zsh terminal. If I use bash, then it works fine.

[karrtikr]

@norambna Can you run "echo $PATH" in your .zshrc shell and report the value you see there?

[karrtikr]

I think you all might be running into: microsoft/vscode#205102.

[karrtikr]

Can you also report the same when trying out the latest release version of the extension?

Appreciate all the help! @matt-hires

[karrtikr]

Btw, can you share your .zshrc if possible?

[norambna]

@norambna Can you run "echo $PATH" in your .zshrc shell and report the value you see there?

I'm using the Python extension v2024.1.10441814 (pre-release) now and echo $PATH in my zsh terminal inside VSCode, where my venv is not being activated:

/home/luis/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv/shims:/home/luis/.pyenv/shims:/home/luis/.pyenv/bin:/home/luis/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2024.1.10441814/pythonFiles/deactivate/zsh:/home/luis/Documents/genp/dj-genp/.venv/bin:/home/luis/.pyenv/bin:/home/luis/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/default/bin:/usr/bin/site_perl:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl

And the PATH I'm getting in a bash terminal, where my venv is being activated automatically is:

/home/luis/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2024.1.10441814/pythonFiles/deactivate/zsh:/home/luis/Documents/genp/dj-genp/.venv/bin:/home/luis/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv/shims:/home/luis/.pyenv/shims:/home/luis/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2024.1.10441814/pythonFiles/deactivate/zsh:/home/luis/Documents/genp/dj-genp/.venv/bin:/home/luis/.pyenv/bin:/home/luis/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/default/bin:/usr/bin/site_perl:/usr/bin/vendor_perl:/usr/bin/core_perl

[matt-hires]

here you go:
zshrc.zip

this includes .zshrc as well as an encapsulated .oh-my.zshrc which is sourced in the former one.

[karrtikr]

Thanks. Can any of you provide the value of PATH asked here #22899 (comment) for the release version of the extension?

Btw, both your issues seem to be microsoft/vscode#205133. The above information would help confirm it.

Ok great, thanks for confirming. It seems automatic shell integration for zsh shell isn't working for you, same as microsoft/vscode#205133. I encourage you to upvote that to raise awareness and priority.

As a workaround, try manual installation, which I expect should fix your issues: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/terminal/shell-integration#_manual-installation.

Yes, the "Manual installation" solved it on my system! Thanks and I also upvoted microsoft/vscode#205133

[matt-hires]

Workaround was also working for me, thx for your effort @karrtikr.
