Disable auto wrap long line in Visual Studio Code

Viewed 64364

I use Visual Studio Code to write Python code with Pylint.

When I press Ctrl + S (save), the editor wraps a long line into multiple short lines. How do I disable the action or configure wrap column count to 120 (default is 80)?

I have tried "python.linting.pylintArgs": ["--max-line-length=120"] and "editor.wordWrapColumn": 120, but it didn't work.

When using custom arguments, each top-level element of an argument string that's separated by space on the command line must be a separate item in the arguments list. For example:

"python.formatting.autopep8Args": [ 
  "--max-line-length", "120", "--experimental" 
],
"python.formatting.yapfArgs": [
  "--style", "{based_on_style: chromium, indent_width: 20}"
],
"python.formatting.blackArgs": [
  "--line-length", "100"
]

For proper formatting of these Python settings you can check Formatter-specific settings:

Allow statements before imports with Visual Studio Code and autopep8

If you're using yapf as your formatter then the option is column_limit. For example, from settings.json:

"python.formatting.provider": "yapf",
"python.formatting.yapfArgs": [
    "--style={based_on_style: google, indent_width: 4, column_limit: 150}"
],

Autopep8 requires --aggressive in order to recommend non-whitespace changes:

"python.linting.pylintArgs": ["--max-line-length", "120", "--aggressive"]

This will wrap the long lines for you.
