partial auto completion when coding
Bug report template:
For now, auto-completion partially works with LSP server (e.g. vscode), I can only see a little bit of method in the completion menu. But, if I execute in ipython, then I can get the fulllists of methods
Steps to reproduce
- coding with vscode
- create instance for instrument class e.g.
rigol_dg4000 : RigolDG4000 - type
rigol_dg4000.to trigger the completion menu
Expected behaviour
list all possible methods
Actual behaviour
only partial of methods show up
System
It would be helpful to provide such information:
operating system
If you are using a released version of qcodes (recommended): qcodes version : 0.45.0
maybe it's because this lib designed with adding parameter on the fly, I cannot get full list of methods until it's running.
or at least provide API docs in official docs here: https://microsoft.github.io/Qcodes/drivers_api/Rigol.html#qcodes.instrument_drivers.rigol.RigolDG4000
@konosubakonoakua This is indeed because parameters / instrument modules / channel tuples are dynamically added to the instruments. In 0.46.0 nearly all parameters on instruments in qcodes were changed to be statically defined. It is the intension that the same will happen for instrument modules and channel tuples, however this is a significant amount of work so this may take some time.
If you have instrument drivers outside qcodes that you would like to update qcodes ships with a tool to enable this.
This tool is a CLI tool called qcodes-refactor
