JupyterLab: Tab complete not working

Hi,

if I install jupyterlab from the community repository, tab complete does not do anything.

I have tried

import numpy as np # numpy from arch repo
import math

np.<TAB>
np.a<TAB>
math.<TAB>

and nothing happens when pressing tab. They did not even trigger the Python 3 kernel to be busy as it should be to retrieve the suggestions. By the way, tab completion in jupyter notebook (the older version) works fine. Shift+Tab for documentation works as well in jupyterlab.

Can somebody else confirm this behavior or is there a fix that I overlooked?

Re: JupyterLab: Tab complete not working

Since I have been able to reproduce this behavior in a Manjaro VM (for the sake of faster, more reproducible setups), I created an issue upstream: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/8180
