Setting up auto import sorting in VSCode

Stack Overflow Solution

1. First, pip install isort & install isort from VSCode extensions
2. Then, to make isort compatible with black, create a pyproject.toml file at the root of your repo.
3. Add the following to this file:

   [tool.isort]
   multi_line_output = 3
   include_trailing_comma = true
   force_grid_wrap = 0
   line_length = 88
   profile = "black"

4. Edit /.vscode/settings.json and configure black and isort by adding:

{
   "[python]": {
    "editor.codeActionsOnSave": {
      "source.organizeImports": true
       }
     },

   "python.formatting.provider": "black",
   "isort.args": ["--profile", "black"],
}

5. source.organizeImports: true runs isort automatically upon saving document.
