Auto complete not working in ubuntu vs code

Python
,
1

I have installed open cv using sudo apt-get install python3-opencv and autocomplete is not working
open cv version: 4.5.4
linux: Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

added paths in the settings

  "python.autoComplete.extraPaths": [
  
    "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cv2.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so"
  ],
  "python.analysis.extraPaths": [
    "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cv2.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so"
  ]

How can I fix this issue?

because that is not recommended. the debian package is not official.

install via pip. that’s an official package.

for support with VSCode, please find an appropriate forum. we don’t know how that thing needs to be configured. specifically,

it is highly unlikely that python configuration knows what to do with a .so file.

ok I installed the package using pip.
Which id should i used for this? pycharm?

I installed the package using pip install opencv-python
and now I am getting this error when I try to import the package

I fixed the issue by downgrading the package and using pycharm instead of vs code
