How does your LSP pick up everything like imports if they only live in a docker container?

  LSP?

      Why does it care if the application runs in a container? When you run a project in a container, you mount the projects directory into the container. That is nothing my editor cares about. It does not even know it. It works on the files locally on the host os and that's it. The the files are executed somewhere inside a container is none of the editors business.

        It doesn't technically care, but if your container is reporting that it has hit a breakpoint in file /mnt/some_module/script.py, then your LSP / debugger / editor is not going to know what it is talking about without some more info.

          I do debugging inside the container with pudb.

  You run the LSP also inside the container and connect to it remotely. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/devcontainers/containers https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/devcontainers/containers

    Okay that makes sense, I don't really see how it's simpler but I completely see the use case. I was unclear on what he/she meant by the editor "just working" without having some config or plugin to point to the installed packages
