VS Code Usage

How does it work?

Sourcery scans the currently open Python file. If it finds improvements in your code it returns them as a list of Info-level problems. You can see these directly in the code editor as underlined sections.

Hovering over a suggestion with the mouse will show you the suggested diff.

How do I see all the refactorings?

The refactorings appear in the Problems window (Ctrl+Shift+M). You can navigate between problems using F8.

How do I apply a refactoring?

Refactorings are applied via a Quick Fix:

1. Press Ctrl+. on the suggested refactoring and it will bring up the quick fix menu with an option to apply it.
2. Hover the mouse over the refactoring and a lightbulb will appear. Click the lightbulb and apply the refactoring.
3. Hovering over the refactoring in the Problems window will also show this lightbulb.

How do I disable Sourcery on a function?

There are 2 options:

1. Add this comment to the function definition: # sourcery off.
   For example:

   def func(a, b):  # sourcery off
       return a + b

2. Bring up the quick fix menu for the refactoring and select the Disable Sourcery for this function option
