python vs code extension bug "this.debugService.onDidReceiveDebugSessionCustomEvent is not a function"

[113xiaoji]

Description

@akosyakov I download the python extension source code, add some logs, and compile it.I put .vsix file to theia docker container.When i start the theia image I figured out the error is "this.debugService.onDidReceiveDebugSessionCustomEvent is not a function", i suppose the theia do not support this api?
I read the python extension source code, the error is at this place
this.disposables.push(this.debugService.onDidReceiveDebugSessionCustomEvent(e => { this.eventHandlers.forEach(handler => handler.handleCustomEvent ? handler.handleCustomEvent(e).ignoreErrors() : undefined); }));

Reproduction Steps

1. add some log and build python extension source code
2. put the python.vsix to theia docker images
   3.start the theia
3. show the error "this.debugService.onDidReceiveDebugSessionCustomEvent is not a function"

OS and Theia version:
theia 0.3.18-6.17.1
Diagnostics:

@tolusha do you have any ideas? thank you！

[tolusha]

@113xiaoji
It seems Theia image is outdated.

[113xiaoji]

@tolusha i use eclipse/che-theia: 0.3.18-6.17.1, is it out of data? i will use the latest images and try it again thank you

[113xiaoji]

@tolusha I try to use theiaide/theia:next image bug it seams do not have plugins and debug, why? thank you very much, did i miss some configure or how to configure it, can you give me some doc or blog。Thanks again.

[akosyakov]

There is ongoing work to turn theiaide/theia into VS Code without 3rd party extensions. Right now we keep it without plugin system to avoid exposing any uncompleted features.

You can use theia full image or build from sources: https://github.com/theia-ide/theia/wiki/Testing-VS-Code-extensions

@tolusha @akosyakov thank you, i want to use python extension to debug remotely, can i join you? The docs are seemed not rich enough, i met some issue cannot figure out, so i asked you to use the right way to solve this problem.

[113xiaoji]

@tolusha @akosyakov I execute python extension create termminal it shows

did you met before
use the theiaide/theia-full

[akosyakov]

@113xiaoji you will need to wait till the plugin system is ready to support it

in the meantime you can try https://github.com/vilkazz/theia-python-debug Theia extension @Vilkazz probably can support on it?

@113xiaoji you are more than welcome to configure my extension for remote debug. I only tested the local debug, so I am very interested to know if the remote debug support is working!

I have most of the relevant configuration params dumped in the readme file in the repo, you can refer to the vs-python extension to see the full list of configurable parameters. Cheers!

I believe the following issue can be closed, the onDidReceiveDebugSessionCustomEvent plugin API is supported in the framework. We have the following theia-python-docker image which makes use of the python vscode extension.
