Support dynamic changes of search paths in language server

See original GitHub issue

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.27.0-insiders
Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): 2018.8.0-alpha
OS and version: 10.14
Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 3.7.0
Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | …): N/A
Relevant/affected Python packages and their versions: N/A

Actual behavior

I have a list of Python packages that are not installed in site-packages under python.autoComplete.extraPaths. Jedi uses those paths to provide completions. The new LS does not seem to recognise them. I also get IntelliSense linter warnings when importing those packages, which doesn’t happen with Jedi.

Expected behavior

The LS should treat the packages under python.autoComplete.extraPaths as if they were normally installed libraries.

Ah, that is true. LS needs to be restarted when search paths change (Reload Window command is sufficient). I will rename the issue instead.

Closing as this has been resolved upstream.
