intellicode's Issues

[VS] TS/JS support in Visual Studio

OS Version [macOS/Windows]: Windows
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Python]: TypeScript/JavaScript

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:
Bring the TypeScript/JavaScript support into the Visual Studio IntelliCode extension

The Microsoft Python language service breaks CTags and the VS Code Outline view.

Switching away from Jedi to the Microsoft Python language service causes ctags.exe to throw errors while it is attempting to generate tags. It also neuters the recently added VS Code Outline panel. The Outline ever updates with navigable information such as method names, class names, etc...

Re-enabling Jedi and disabling the Intellicode extension restores both the CTags and Outline view functionality.

Never Seen IntelliCode Work Once

Product and Version [VS/VSCode]: 1.30.2
OS Version [macOS/Windows]: 1803
IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.1.2
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Node.js]: C# .Net, JavaScript

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:

1. Install IntelliCode extension

I believe that's all we are supposed to do. I've never seen IntelliCode work once yet, in VS Code. I've created new projects and have edited old ones. No starred suggestion, nothing different than I've already been seeing.

I posted this in a related closed thread but didn't get any reaction so I'm guessing I just have to create a new one. I've disable and even tried reinstalling but still nothing.

AI Algorithm behind Intellicode

Hello,
I wanted to ask if you could provide any information about the AI Algorithm used for Intellicode. It would be also great if you could give some insight what data you collect for learning your model and what features are used for the machine learning approach. I could not find any paper, article or blog describing that.

IntelliCode and edit.suggestSelection: recentlyUsed* not working as expected

Product and Version [VS/VSCode]: 1.29.1
OS Version [macOS/Windows]: macOS 10.14.1
IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.1.0
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Node.js]: TypeScript 3.1.4

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:

Transcript:

• i type "re" and pick "res"
• i type ".st" and pick "status"
• i type "200).js" and pick "json"
  As you can see, Vscode doesnt remember my last choices. This happens with "recentlyUsed" and "recentlyUsedByPrefix". Actually its hard to see in encoded GIF, but selected item in Suggest window is always the first one. I have to manualy pick my choice with down-arrow.
  With IntelliCode extension disabled it works a expected.
  No logs in Output panel for IntelliCode.

Visual Studio IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.1.0
Python Extension Version: -
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Python]: JS & TS

If I use it on my existing project it doesn't work, I simply don't get star icon near suggestions and order is alphabetical in JS or TS. But if I create a new project and create a new file for e.g. index.js or index.ts it works.

My tsconfig.json:

[VS] Feature Request: Share custom models publicly for Open Source Repos

Product and Version [VS/VSCode]: VS Professional 2017 - 15.9.3
OS Version [macOS/Windows]: Windows 10 - Build
IntelliCode Extension Version:
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Node.js]: C#

Scenario:

I work for a company Umbraco where our CMS is written C# and is available on GitHub. It would be great for anyone who is working with the Umbraco source code and that includes our wider community who contribute bug fixes etc.

It would be a great out of box experience if we can ship the custom model in the repo so that all users contributing to the code get the Intellicode suggestions

Typescript React support

Can you add typescript react support for typescript only. Right now when I am inside .tsx file Intellicode doesn't work. Only in .ts files.

Please use the latest version of vscode-extension-telemetry dependency

This extension uses version 0.0.17 of vscode-extension-telemtetry module.

The latest version of vscode-extension-telemtetry module (0.1.0) uses the latest version of applicationinsights module (1.0.6) which has the fix to prevent unnecessary patching of the require and other 3rd party modules.

For more details, please see microsoft/vscode-extension-telemetry#16

README: privacy practices need documentation

The VSCode extension readme doesn't have a single sentence about your privacy / data-usage & collection practices.

Looking at the Visual Studio (not VS Code) IntelliCode FAQ, I read that:

"IntelliCode uses the developer's current code context and patterns based on thousands of highly rated, open-source projects on GitHub. The results form a model that predicts the most likely and most relevant API calls."

and paragraph Q. What happens when my model is trained, and what data is sent to Microsoft? says:

"To train a model based on your code, the IntelliCode extension extracts only those elements of the code that are needed to create a model for recommending completion values. For example, it extracts the names of classes and methods and how often they're called in different circumstances. The extracted data is transmitted to the IntelliCode service, which uses machine learning algorithms to train a model for your code. It then returns the model to your computer where it's merged with the base model."

"We don’t track your keystrokes or extract the values of literals (such as strings) from your code, nor do we extract whole expressions or statements. All communication with the IntelliCode service is over HTTPS. For more information, see Q. How secure is this?."

Is it the same for the VSCode extension? What does "current code context" mean? What data does the extension send? Code? A binary representation? How often? The FAQ entries should be repeated, complemented, or at least linked to in the README.

Visual Studio IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.1.0

Symbol (function/method) identification is incorrect

Issue Type: Bug

If a method or function is decorated, when that method is looked up, the location is shown incorrectly.

This works

def some_func()
...

This doesn't

@some_decorator()
def some_func()
...

Some other line in the code gets highligted when the method is selected from the list (Ctrl + Shift + O). Also the method is incorrectly identified as a dictionary.

stop working/become slow with Python from time to time

vscode: 1.30.2
intellicode: 1.1.2
os: Windows 10

For some reason, intellcode is not very unstable and always stop working after a while as I'm not getting any suggestions anymore. I tried to reload the window but it doesn't seem to fix the issue. Does the extension require internet connections or something? I wonder if you guys can consider adding an icon in the status bar to inform the users, like kite or something.

Except that, intellcode doesn't seem to have lots of methods indexed with Python. Some basic pandas methods and attributes, like .value_counts() and .columns, never show up. In addition, intellicode doesn't seem to index the column name in a pandas DataFrame either since I never got any suggestion while using dot notation to select columns.

Feature Request: Use Git to determine authorship

VS2017 15.8.9
Windows 10
Intellicode Extension: 2.0.265.7452
Target language: C#

The IntelliCode FAQ says

For C# developers, IntelliCode can learn patterns from your code.

"Your code" is pretty loose here. To IntelliCode, "your code" is whatever solution you train on. To me, "your code" is code that I wrote.

It would be awesome if IntelliCode could look at the Git history to see what code I, individually, wrote and give those lines more weight.

[VS] PowerShell support

Product and Version [VS/VSCode]: VS
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Node.js]: PowerShell

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:
Add PowerShell support to Visual Studio Intellicode

When using the Microsoft python language server, the output panel pops up automatically, causing the user to terminate subsequent input.

Issue Type: Bug

When modifying a content on an existing python file, once I type dot after some objects, the Microsoft python language server will automatically pop the control panel and place the input focus on the output panel. Because I have to finish the relevant content in the back, but I don't want this unexpected automatic pop-up output panel to terminate my subsequent input behavior.You can add a configuration to let the user set this behavior.This situation will disappear when using Jedi.

When I didn't make any changes to my settings:

PYTHONPATH set in "python.envFile" ignored

VS Code Version: 1.25.1
OS Version: Windows 7
Visual Studio IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.0.1
Python Extension Version: 2018.7.1
Target Platform or Language: Python

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:

I noticed that jedi seems to be picking up the PYTHONPATH set in my .env file, but turning that off to enable intellicode requires adding the same paths to python.autoComplete.extraPaths to find my modules.

Could I build use the model for extension of other editor?

I want to try the trained model from intellicode service in other editor as an extension, it that allowed?

No suggestions when using TS workspace version (3.1.6) instead of VS version (3.1.4)

Product and Version: VSCode 1.29.1
OS Version: Windows 10 (64bit)
IntelliCode Extension Version: 1.1.0
Target Platform or Language: nodejs

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:

1. Configure project to use a higher TS version than the currently shipped one (which is 3.1.4)
2. See it not working

I'd understand smth like "works only for TS X.Y.Z or higher" due to missing features in older versions - but why does it not work if the workspace version is newer?

As you can see has shouldn't be first.

As you can see I typed p which should give me push first, but it gave me pop instead. Same is in JS.

JavaScript

In JS it's even worse :(

Can't uninstall / disable IntelliCode

I have the issue described in #4

Regular Intellisense is not working, so I am trying to disable or uninstall IntelliCode until a solution is available (and hoping that Intellisense will be enabled). This gives me the message:

Cannot uninstall extension 'Visual Studio IntelliCode - Preview'. Extension 'Python Extension Pack' depends on this.

Do I have to revert back to VS Code 1.24 in order to get regular Intellisense back, or is there some other way to remove IntelliCode?

In the output the window, intellicode goes to download the models and seems to do this forever, it doesn't time out or anything. When I click on the link I get an error that the signature is malformed, so I think this is related to Issue #4
I downloaded the model directly like the other issue says, Is there a way to use the local model before downloading a new one?
