Python updates

[brettcannon]

Bring the non-conda containers all in sync in regards to not running pip during container creation and updating their devcontainer.json for Pylint. For conda containers, just update devcontainer.json.

Should we remove noop.txt in the python-2 and python-3-posgres folder?

Also, the root requirements.txt in the root of python-3-posgres can probably be deleted too, correct? The test project could do a preLaunchCommand to install requirements.txt if needed. The main reason that file was there was because it got built into the image.

Otherwise LGTM

@Chuxel you're correct about the noop.txt; I thought I had got them but I obviously missed them.

As for the requirements.txt in python-3-postgres, you tell me. 😉 If you want the test project to actually function I would assume you would need the requirements.txt file. So I don't know what your expectations are for how much work it would take to make the test projects function.

But that doesn't actually get used now on build does it? What we've done for things like node is add a preLaunchTask in launch.json that runs yarn install. Here this could be:

.vscode/tasks.json

{
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "label": "pip install",
            "type": "shell",
            "command": "pip install -r ./test-project/requirements.txt"
        }
    ]
}

.vscode/launch.json

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Python: Django",
            "type": "python",
            "request": "launch",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/test-project/manage.py",
            "console": "integratedTerminal",
            "args": [
                "runserver",
                "0.0.0.0:5000",
                "--noreload",
                "--nothreading"
            ],
            "django": true,
            "preLaunchTask": "pip install"
        }
    ]
}

test-project/requirements.txt

Django
psycopg2

[brettcannon]

@Chuxel Correct, pip install isn't run automatically anymore. So would you like me to add the examples you gave above to the PR?

[Chuxel]

@brettcannon Yeah I think that probably makes sense. We’ve had people ask why requirements.txt is in the root before.

[brettcannon]

@Chuxel PTAL

[Chuxel]

@brettcannon LGTM!
