Ability to remove python's dunder functions from the code completion list (pyright's intellisense) #1090

Closed WillAvudim closed 3 years ago

WillAvudim commented 3 years ago

The code completion list for every python object contains the standard set of python functions, such as __add__, __annotations__, __class__, __eq__, __hash__, __init__, ... Trust me, it's a very long list - https://docs.python.org/3/library/operator.html

The fun part is that sometimes my class' fields and methods are intermingled with the dunder functions, which makes it a long quest to look through.

Would it be possible to introduce an option to delist all members starting with 2 underscores ("dunder" functions and private functions)?

I have also noticed that the debug console's representation of python objects neatly hides them inside the "special variables" list. Thank you for doing that, that is awesome!

I'm going to move this request to the pylance repo since it's related to language service features rather than core type checking.
