An external terminal window opens when starting a new debugging session

[JrmLg]

Hi,

When i start a new debugging session with the command :
:lua require('dap').continue()<CR>
A new Python console window opens, I have to go back to nvim to be able to debug.

Very simple overview :

This window points to my virtual environment python.
I believe it comes from my dap.adapters.python configuration :

local dap = require('dap')

dap.adapters.python = function(callback, config)
    if config.request == 'attach' then
        ---@diagnostic disable-next-line: undefined-field
        local port = (config.connect or config).port
        ---@diagnostic disable-next-line: undefined-field
        local host = (config.connect or config).host or '127.0.0.1'
        callback({
          type = 'server',
          port = assert(port, '`connect.port` is required for a python `attach` configuration'),
          host = host,
          options = {
            source_filetype = 'python',
          },
        })
    else
        callback({                                                                                                                                               -- From HERE
          type = 'executable',
          command = vim.fn.stdpath('config') .. '/plug-requirement/dap/python/venv/Scripts/python',        --  <--- My venv
          args = { '-m', 'debugpy.adapter'},
          detached = true,
          options = {
            source_filetype = 'python',
          },
        })
    end
end

dap.configurations.python = {{
    -- The first three options are required by nvim-dap
    type = 'python'; -- the type here established the link to the adapter definition: `dap.adapters.python`
    request = 'launch';
    name = "Launch file";
    -- console = "integratedTerminal",
    -- console = "externalTerminal",
    console = "internalConsole",

    -- Options below are for debugpy, see https://github.com/microsoft/debugpy/wiki/Debug-configuration-settings for supported options

    program = "${file}"; -- This configuration will launch the current file if used.
    pythonPath = function()
      -- debugpy supports launching an application with a different interpreter then the one used to launch debugpy itself.
      -- The code below looks for a `venv` or `.venv` folder in the current directly and uses the python within.
      -- You could adapt this - to for example use the `VIRTUAL_ENV` environment variable.
      local cwd = vim.fn.getcwd()
      if vim.fn.executable(cwd .. '/venv/bin/python') == 1 then
        return cwd .. '/venv/bin/python'
      elseif vim.fn.executable(cwd .. '/.venv/bin/python') == 1 then
        return cwd .. '/.venv/bin/python'
      else
        return vim.fn.getenv('LOCALAPPDATA') .. '/Programs/Python/Python311/python'
      end
    end;
}}

Do you think this is a bug or a configuration issue?

Hi,
If anyone else is having the same problem as me, I found my answer here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1689015/run-python-script-without-windows-console-appearing

I just update this line in my configuration :
return vim.fn.getenv('LOCALAPPDATA') .. '/Programs/Python/Python311/python'
To :
return vim.fn.getenv('LOCALAPPDATA') .. '/Programs/Python/Python311/pythonw'
