What is vscode-python?

A docker image based on https://github.com/cdr/code-server tailored for python programming.

It aims to provide a state-of-the-art IDE with some modules adapted to Python to help developers.

How to use it

To run a Python script in interactive mode, create a new file with .py extension, write some commands, e.g.

import pandas as pd
pd.DataFrame([0, 1, 2])

and press SHIFT + ENTER

If you need a package, e.g. flask, open a terminal and run

pip install flask

Everything is integrated within a conda environment. You can also use

conda install flask

in a terminal if you prefer.

You can also edit a Jupyter Notebook (extension .ipynb) file. The Jupyter extension as well as additional useful extensions (Git Lens among others) is available.

Please visit https://github.com/cdr/code-server to learn how to use this image.

How to contribute

If you find something is missing for general python programming with this image, don't hesitate to let us know, either with an issue or by submitting a PR.

Tips

• Use Settings Sync to sync up your custom configuration and extension and start a new properly tuned session in a heartbeat.
• The paste shortcut in the terminal is: SHIFT + INSER
• To execute code use SHIFT + ENTER

Run in a local container

First pull the image:

docker pull InseeFrLab/vscode-python

docker run -it -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 -e PASSWORD="YOUR_PASSWORD" InseeFrLab/vscode-python

🎉 open your browser at http://localhost:8080/ and use the password you chose (e.g. YOUR_PASSWORD)

vscode-python's Issues

Installing quarto on vscode ?

Hi,

I started to use quarto which can be used with a nice VisualStudio extension (https://quarto.org/docs/tools/vscode.html). I think it is a great tool that would ease the use of Python with reproducible documents (alternative to Jupyter) and interaction computations.

Would you consider adding quarto to the image as well as the extension ? I can do the PR, I have every pieces needed.

Vault not available

I just saw that vault is not available when launching a visual studio instance

I am going to propose a PR

Https

Hey,

I just tested this image in portainer with traefik, because I use it online, is there an way to enable the https port easily? With an label or something?

Install C++ compiler

When installing python dependencies based on C++, I sometimes have troubles :

pip install fasttext

RuntimeError: Unsupported compiler -- at least C++11 support is needed!

Installing g++ solves the problem (here)

sudo apt-get install g++

Could we put that in Dockerfile such that it is available by default ?
