Kite and Microsoft Remote SSH Extension #622

Open KevinGoodwin1997 opened 4 years ago

KevinGoodwin1997 commented 4 years ago

The visual studio kite plugin and the Microsoft Remote SSH extensions don't seem to work together. When I open a local python file kite works fine. However if I open a ssh visual studio code instance kite says, "kite is not installed" in the bottom right status bar. Kite is indeed installed in the extensions menu on vs code. kite_one kite_two

Same here. The problem is that the extension installs in the remote, while the plugin is on the local machine. I installed the engine manually on the remote, and then Kite started working.

The problem is that it expects an X display to be available. I really wish that:

  1. It's able to install and start Kite on the remote automatically, like for example the MS C++ extension does for the required tooling
  2. It can run the daemon in batch mode, no X display needed
