No intellisense/autocomplete

[lunar87]

Running VSCode on Windows, installed CLI, running commands works, but there is no intellisense

[chrisdias]

I'm seeing the same things. The performance of Python and the underlying CLI on Windows seems to be an issue. You have to wait for the extension to pick up the login (you'll see the status in the status bar) and then you will start to see completions. However, if you type quickly, back up, etc. you can see the completion list gets confused. Here I'm at az but it is showing me completions for webapp:

I think this is because I typed in az webapp a few times, backed up, press ctrl+space a few times, etc.

[chrisdias]

az cli version 2.0.15
python version 3.6.1

[chrisdias]

related to #13 and #15 and #10?

[chrisdias]

works much better on windows!

[vykhand]

Dear all, I am on az 2.0.18, and the issue still takes place. Can we please reopen the issue?
Sometimes I notice that if I start typing it gives me suggestions (not always!) but when I press ctrl-space it shows loading.

[chrisdias]

@chrmarti i'm seeing the same regression of the experience on windows over the weekend...

[chrmarti]

Cannot reproduce with az 2.0.20, could you retry with that?

[chrmarti]

@jonathanmoons @chrisdias Could you retry with the latest CLI? (It worked for me with 2.0.20.)

[blelem]

Same problem here. Text is colored ok, running commands works, but intellisense doesn't offer any suggestions.
azure-cli (2.0.27)
VScode version 1.20
python version 3.6.4
Mac High Sierra

[chrmarti]

@blelem Is this with the Azure CLI installed with Homebrew? Is there anything in the console (Help > Toggle Developer Tools)?

[vykhand]

Hi guys, I still have this problem. What do you think is the root cause? If you point me to it I may try to fix it.

[chrmarti]

@vykhand Which versions of this extension, VS Code and the Azure CLI are you using? Make sure all are at the latest released version. If the problem persists, please check if there are any errors in the console (Help > Toggle Developer Tools).

[mcollier]

Same problems for me.

[chrmarti]

The stacktrace suggests that you are running a CLI version < 2.0.24. Could there be an old version on the PATH? What is the CLI version you get when running az --version from a command prompt?

[vykhand]

Hi Christof, @chrmarti I am running az cli that is installed together with Azure Machine Learning workbench. In the past, I tried to update to the latest version and it did not help the issue.

Where do you see the suggestion that the Azure CLI is < 2.0.24?

[chrmarti]

@vykhand Please update to the latest CLI version. We had reports of significant performance improvements starting with 2.0.24.

@mcollier I see it using the pre-2.0.24 CLI's API in your screenshot. That also shows it using CLI modules in your AppData\Roaming folder when it should use those in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\CLI2. For some reason it mixes up the two versions. What is your PYTHONPATH set to?

[mcollier]

@chrmarti I don't see a PYTHONPATH environment variable. In my PATH environment variable, I do see 'C:\Users\mcollier\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python36\Scripts'.

I found a StackOverflow post which suggested running python -c "import sys; print('\n'.join(sys.path))". The resulted in the following:

[chrmarti]

@mcollier What do you get for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\CLI2\python.exe" -c "import sys; print('\n'.join(sys.path))"?

[mcollier]

@chrmarti, I get the following:

@derekbekoe Any idea why the AppData\Roaming folder makes it to the lookup paths?

Happy Coding!

[mcollier]

@chrmarti Is there a way to reopen this issue?

@derekbekoe Any thoughts on the AppData\Roaming question asked by @chrmarti?

[alandevos]

having the same issue (on multiple machines). console displays following error:

[chrmarti]

[chrmarti]

@alandevos I wonder if in your case the extension is not correctly installed. Could you try uninstalling the Azure CLI extension, (importantly) restart VS Code and then reinstall the extension?

[chrmarti]

@alandevos We will track your issue as #35.

[chrmarti]

Could everyone seeing this update to the latest Azure CLI (2.0.37) and Azure CLI extension (0.4.2) and check if this is still a problem?

[samhodgkinson]

Testing on version 2.0.55 AzureCLI, Azure CLI extension (0.4.2). Intelisense does not work.

[chrmarti]

@samhodgkinson Are there any errors in the console (Help > Toggle Developer Tools)?

[samhodgkinson]

There are a few issues but none I can see for ms-vscode.azurecli, let me know If there are any log files I can attach.

[chrmarti]

Let's track the latest reports in #50 which specifically for the reported issue with 2.0.62 of the CLI.

I'll close this very old issue. If you see other problems with IntelliSense than the one in #50, please open a new issue.
