如何使用ELPY进行自动完成工作？

Question

I am currently trying to install the ELPY package for Emacs, which is a Python development mode.

I am following the instructions on the Github page, but am having issues.

When I evaluate the following expressions

(package-initialize)
(elpy-enable) 

I see the following in the minibuffer:

After that, auto-complete does not work in the mode, although I do see a "Python" item in the top Emacs menu when I am in an *.py file. This may be some other that does that.

Could someone tell me how to make auto-complete work with ELPY?

It appears that the mode is working, except for auto-complete. I expected something like this to happen, but it does not.

Answer 1

I find elpy-config helpful. Try Mx elpy-config

Then install any python packages that it says are missing. Missing jedi can cause company to not work. You can install jedi from the window that elpy-config brings up.
