VPI code(Python) does not work Intellisense properly

[dandelion1124]

Summary

I installed vscode to Jetson Orin NX using official deb package(https://code.visualstudio.com/download).
And, I installed vscode extension package(Python, Pylance). But, VPI code(Python) does not work Intellisense properly. On the other hand, OpenCV code(Python) works Intellisense properly.

I don’t know which is the problem, vscode or VPI Python package.

Environment

• Jetson Orin NX(16GB)
• JetPack 5.1.1
• VPI 2.2.6

Hi,

VPI is installed in a custom repository rather than /usr/lib/python3.8/.
Could you try to add the VPI path to see if it helps?

Thanks.

@AastaLLL I add /opt/nvidia/vpi2/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/python to python.autoComplete.extraPaths in settings.json.
But Intellisense does not work properly.

And, I checked vpi.__file__.

>>> import vpi
>>> vpi.__file__
'/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/vpi.cpython-38-aarch64-linux-gnu.so'

So, I add /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages.
But this problem has not been solved.

Hi,

We got a similar topic recently and the user is fixed by installing the PYTHON plugin in the vscode.
Thanks.
