Python formatting very slow in Dev Container

See original GitHub issue

Issue Type: Bug

Behaviour

Expected vs. Actual

Expected:

  • Fast to save a file with ‘formatOnSave’ set to true inside a dev container

Actual:

  • takes ~6 seconds to sort imports and then format code
  • Note: that it seems to be fast outside of a dev container
  • Note: This seems to have regressed with build 2022.01786462952. The build before it, 2021.12.1559732655 does not have this issue. The latest build, 2022.0.1814523869, still has this issue.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a Dockerfile that:
    • Installs an editable poetry package
    • Here is the list of dev dependencies in pyproject.toml:
[tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]
bandit = "^1.7.1"
black = "^21.11b0"
flake8 = "^4.0.1"
isort = "^5.10.1"
markdown = "3.3.4"
pytest = "^5.2"
pytest-mock = "^3.6.1"
mkdocs = "^1.2.3"
mkdocstrings = "^0.16.2"
ipykernel = "^6.6.0"
pytest-recording = "^0.12.0"
  1. Create a devcontainer.json like this:
  "settings": {
    // Resolve import errors in Jupyter / ipython
    "[json]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
    },
    "[jsonc]": {
      "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode"
    },
    "[python]": {
      "editor.tabSize": 4
    },
    "editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
      "source.organizeImports": true
    },
    "editor.formatOnSave": true,
    "editor.tabSize": 2,
    "python.analysis.extraPaths": ["sdk"],
    "python.defaultInterpreterPath": "/opt/conda/bin/python",
    "python.formatting.provider": "black",
    "python.linting.banditEnabled": true,
    "python.linting.flake8Enabled": true,
    "python.testing.pytestEnabled": true,
    "python.testing.unittestEnabled": false,
    "terminal.integrated.inheritEnv": false
  },

  // Add the IDs of extensions you want installed when the container is created.
  "extensions": [
    "amodio.toggle-excluded-files",
    "bierner.markdown-emoji",
    "esbenp.prettier-vscode",

    "ms-python.python",
    "ms-python.vscode-pylance",
    "ms-toolsai.jupyter",
    "tamasfe.even-better-toml",
    "timonwong.shellcheck",
    "yzhang.markdown-all-in-one"
  ]

@adiun does it help if you set the formatter path and isort path?

@alkatar21 This is not an issue with the extension. The perf issues are due conda run itself being slow. That said if you want to tryout the prototype, we have you can find it here https://github.com/psf/black/issues/2883, https://github.com/hhatto/autopep8/issues/624
