I'm currently developing a lot with Python. I use projects like pwntools and sometimes I'm contributing to repositories that use star imports in their source code. I know that star imports are not recommended and I also know how I can avoid them when writing my own code. Nevertheless, I need to work with code that makes use of them.

Every LSP for Python spams me with messages like '...' may be undefined, or defined from star imports: .... I want warnings when something is not defined, so just disabling them is not an option. I tried this, but that only suppresses the original warning at the import. Is there no way for the LSP to read everything from a star import to give proper warnings?

    Welcome to Vim :-) I suppose it depends on the LSP you are using. Maybe could you tell us which Python LSP you are using?

  • Hi @VivianDeSmedt, I tried all of them. It doesn't really matter to me which one I would use in the future, as long as I can solve this issue.

I'm using coc and coc-pyright (run: CocInstall coc-pyright to install it).

It support:

from bar import *

importing your own code.

And, although it reports that wildcard import is not supported from a library, it seems to work fine for me.

from os.path import *

    After some extensive research, I found that this seems a special case related to pwntools, see here: github.com/microsoft/pyright/issues/1644 Thanks anyway!

  • Thanks for the feedback :-) I understand that the problem is a bug in pyright. The question should probably be closed.
