Tab autocomplete not working

[dhruvbalwada]

I noticed that tab autocomplete is not working in the cloud deployment. This is quite annoying, but like a major problem. I had recently experienced the same problem on my personal computer, and the following solution fixed it for me:

I recently upgraded all my packages and autocomplete using tab just stopped working. This has happened to me a few times on different environments and machines, and not sure if it is the same problem everytime (but the level of annoyance is the same). But finally a solution worked for one case. Seems like usually the problem comes from a package called jedi, and for some reason the latest version of this package has the problem but not older versions (jupyter/notebook#2435 scroll to bottom). So downgrading solved the issue for me this time (
pip install jedi==0.17.2)

Thanks for this report @dhruvbalwada! Perhaps the way to get this fixed is to pin jedi over in https://github.com/pangeo-data/pangeo-docker-images/

seems to be working on the master image, so things will be fixed starting with pangeo/pangeo-notebook:2021.02.02
