Remote pylint/autopep8 broken

[quorth0n]

The executables run fine when executed manually but the functionality does not integrate with vscode. I'll have to try logging the exact flags, etc. that vscode passes to the executables.

I think I got this working with the following VSCode Workspace Settings (.vscode/settings.json):

{
    "python.pythonPath": "${workspaceFolder}/venv/bin/python3",
    "python.linting.pylintArgs": [
        "--load-plugins=pylint_django"
    ],
    "python.formatting.provider": "black",
    "python.formatting.blackArgs": [
        "-l 120",
        "-S"
    ],
}

First, I created a virtualenv directly under the backend folder: cd backend; virtualenv venv
Then installed all the packages in requirements.txt: pip install -r config/requirements.txt
(Optional) I installed black as my autoformatter and made it ignore quotes (-S) and default to a line length of 120

Nice work, but most of us use docker and your solution will not work with remote containers. If/when we add #25 however this will be something to consider, maybe we could have two settings.json templates or just omit the files as a whole and document the process instead.

Why exactly do we use Docker? I assume to make open source development easier but I am worried about that motivation if it ends up not working for half the developers. I think that we should choose whichever is easier for new people to get working, which SHOULD be Docker. Until we have documentation that actually makes it work through we probably want to support both.

I've never experienced any issues with Docker on machines that fit its system requirements. Dockerless setup is ultimately a personal choice but really should be treated and maintained as only a fallback due to how greatly docker simplifies the deployment process across both development and production machines.
