Installation

Language Server

VS Code

For most VS Code users, we recommend using the Pylance extension rather than Pyright. Pylance incorporates the Pyright type checker but features additional capabilities such as semantic token highlighting and symbol indexing. You can install the latest-published version of the Pylance VS Code extension directly from VS Code. Simply open the extensions panel and search for “Pylance”.

Vim

Vim/neovim users can install coc-pyright, the Pyright extension for coc.nvim.

Alternatively, ALE will automatically check your code with Pyright if added to the linters list.

Sublime Text

Sublime text users can install the LSP-pyright plugin from package control.

Emacs

Emacs users can install eglot or lsp-mode with lsp-pyright.

PyCharm

PyCharm users can install pyright-for-pycharm if they're using community edition, or pyright-langserver-for-pycharm if they're using professional edition. The later makes use of PyCharm's experimental LSP API.

Command-line

Python Package

A community-maintained Python package by the name of “pyright” is available on pypi and conda-forge. This package will automatically install node (which Pyright requires) and keep Pyright up to date.

pip install pyright

or

conda install pyright

Once installed, you can run the tool from the command line as follows: pyright <options>

NPM Package

Alternatively, you can install the command-line version of Pyright directly from npm, which is part of node. If you don't have a recent version of node on your system, install that first from nodejs.org.

To install pyright globally: npm install -g pyright

On MacOS or Linux, sudo may be required to install globally: sudo npm install -g pyright

To update to the latest version: sudo npm update -g pyright
