Automatically import a missing import (python)

[bakert]

Loving Zed and of course its speed. I'm trying to get everything set up as effectively as possible. I would love to be able to add missing imports in Python code from the line where the import is first used.

I see from #13115 that it's possible to add a missing import when working TypeScript. Does such a facility exist for Python?

I am using Pyright which magically set itself up for me when I started editing python files in Zed (nice!) Might I expect it to appear under Code Actions? (It does not.) Or in the left gutter with a lightning symbol like in the TypeScript example above? (What is the difference between these two things?)

Is this the responsibility of the LSP, or of Zed?

Thanks!

No code actions seem to be supported by pyright in zed, makes it kind of unusable for python :(

When you type path you get the option to automatically import the function -> from os import path.

For exit you get the option from os import _exit

That's interesting. Did you have to do anything to get to that state?

This is my experience typing path into an empty (but already saved as test.py) file:

Is there something I need to configure?

Hmm, I just tried it out again. What I noticed is that it seems to need a venv for this (must then be specified in the pyrightconfig.json).
Without venv, I get the same result in your screenshot.

This work, but there are still no code actions appearing when doing ToggleCodeActions. Coming from a coc.nvim workflow where all i have to do on an unimported symbol is "af" its a real setback :/

I encountered the same issue. @Cernunnos's method works, but it would be ideal if it could generate imports like Visual Studio Code does.

What I found is that auto import only works if the symbol was typed. In case a completion is accepted from the assistant, the import is not handled. You have to go through all of the missing symbols and delete them and type them by hand, which is tedious and quite frustrating.

Today I set up zed as my main editor (switched from vs code), but this feature is really missing.

still no auto import?

I just checked on latest linux preview, no code actions suggested when using ToggleCodeActions.
