Task property "presentation": {"reveal": "never"} is not working when Python extension is active #3852
Description
Environment data
- VS Code version: 1.30.1
- Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): 2018.12.1
- OS and version: Windows 7 Pro SP1 + all updates
- Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 3.7.1 (WinPython)
- Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | ...): virtualenv created by pipenv
Expected behaviour
Task property "presentation": {"reveal": "never"} should never show the terminal panel when the task runs.
Actual behaviour
Task property "presentation": {"reveal": "never"} always shows the terminal panel when the task runs and the Python extension is active.
Steps to reproduce:
- Activate the Python extension.
- Create a task, eg.
{
"label": "Py3 Help",
"type": "shell",
"windows": {
"command": "${env:OneDrive}\\Python\\winpython371-32\\python-3.7.1\\Doc\\python371.chm"
},
"presentation": {
"reveal": "never"
}
},
- Create a keyboard shortcut, eg.
[{
"key": "shift+f1",
"command": "workbench.action.tasks.runTask",
"args": "Py3 Help"
}]
- Run the task, in my eg. shift+F1
Output in terminal (that should not appear)
> Executing task in folder uniclave: C:\Users\JMatos\OneDrive\Python\winpython371-32\python-3.7.1\Doc\python371.chm <
Terminal will be reused by tasks, press any key to close it.
I created a simple Task and added the presentation item, hoping that that would allow me to never show the integrated terminal (as it is reported in the doc at
https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/tasks#vscode
but it isn't working. It always shows the integrated terminal.

"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"label": "Py3 Help",
"type": "shell",
"command": "C:\\Python354-32\\Doc\\python354.chm",
"problemMatcher": [],
"presentation": {
"reveal": "never"
}
}
]
}

Issue moved to Microsoft/vscode #66056 via ZenHub

Don Jayamanne (@DonJayamanne) could you have a look at #65179 before we close this one on our repo. It would seem that the integrated terminal only opens when the Python extension is active...

Hello,
It was me who opened issue #65179 at vscode, but because it only occurs when using the Python extension, I closed it and opened a new issue here.
Thanks,
JM

Yes, I didn't realize that bit when I closed it! Thanks, we will have a look and see if there is something we are doing on our end.

Please add the following setting
"python.terminal.activateEnvironment": falsein your workspacesettings.jsonfile.This will ensure the terminal doesn't get activated with the workspace virtual environment.

Hello,
I'm sorry but that makes no sense. I want the terminal to activate the venv.
What should not happen is the task to show in terminal if the option
is present.
And this only happens with the Python extension activated.
If I disable it everything works.
Thanks,
JM
