radian: Can't get radian to start in Visual Studio Code: "The terminal process terminated with exit code: 1"

So, after hours of frustration, I’ve finally managed to find the source of this. In some way or other I had managed to set the VSCode setting"terminal.integrated.inheritEnv" to false. This should of course be true, and then everything works as expected.

"terminal.integrated.inheritEnv": true

Sorry for all the bother.

There is one more thing, though. How do you get radian installed using pip and Miniconda/Anaconda on MacOS? This does not work for me, I had to install using python setup.py install.

@awellis : Thanks so much… I had the same issue terminal.integrated.inheritEnv but had no clue this setting existed, let alone what it meant. The reason why I post here, is that I think I know what caused setting the switch to false for me: Updated VS Code from 1.4.something to 1.61.0 . After the update radian wasn’t running anymore precisely b/c of that flag.

Well, I can start radian in a console:

❯ which radian                                                                                                                                                                                          
/Users/andrew/miniconda/bin//radian

~
❯ radian --version                                                                                                                                                                                      
radian version: 0.4.8
r executable: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R
r version: 1000.0.0
python executable: /Users/andrew/miniconda/bin/python
python version: 3.7.4

The problem is that I can’t start radian from Visual Studio Code. Here are my VSCode settings:
