enabling pylint_django plugin in vscode, pylint stop working

Question

That's my user settings in vscode

{   "python.pythonPath": "/Users/cristiano/miniconda3/envs/django-rest-2/bin/python",   "python.linting.pylintEnabled": true,   "python.linting.enabled": true,   "python.linting.pylintArgs": [     "--load-plugins",     "pylint_django"   ], } 

I installed the plugin via conda, same as the pylint

pylint                    2.1.1                    py36_0 pylint-django             0.11.1                     py_1    conda-forge pylint-plugin-utils       0.4                        py_0    conda-forge 

If i commented out the "python.linting.pylintArgs" section, pylint works with no problem. I ned to enable the plugin to avoid django-specific errros such as "Entity.objects.all()", but if I enable it, the lint stop working: it does not highlight standard errors o warning the previously was doing it.

I have same exact behaviour using vscode for win and mac. I tried also to use the .pylintrc file as described here but I have the same result: lint stop working. Same behaviour using base conda env or a custom one.

This config for pylint is working for me:

"python.linting.pylintEnabled": true, "python.linting.pylintArgs": [     "--disable=C0111", // missing docstring     "--load-plugins=pylint_django,pylint_celery",  ],

I just got the same issue. Like @J0hnG4lt said, I had a problem with the python path. I didn't point to the path of the environment, which I have installed pylint_django. This config is work for me. Thanks @Manu.

"python.pythonPath": "/Users/mc976/Documents/Programming/Python/Practice/music_service/venv/bin/python3", "python.linting.pylintEnabled": true, "python.linting.pylintArgs": [     "--disable=C0111",     "--load-plugins",     "pylint_django" ] 

Besides, I think you should check your environment to make sure that you have correctly installed pylint_django by using pip list.
