How to debug my python file with Hydra in Vscode launch.json？

[ghost]

I'm using Hydra which requires passing additional arguments using a plus and then an equal sign between the argument and its valueI, e.g.
python evaluate.py '+model_path="logs/fc/version_1/checkpoints/epoch=1-step=2.ckpt"'
I want to pass this in vscode to launch.json to the args field; however, I don't know how to do it properly because typically the argument and value parts are separated by a space and not an equal sign as for Hydra. So the following doesn't work:
{ "version": "0.2.0", "configurations": [ { "name": "Python: Current File", "type": "python", "request": "launch", "program": "${file}", "console": "integratedTerminal", "args" : ["+model_path", "logs/fc/version_1/checkpoints/epoch=1-step=2.ckpt"] } ] }

I had the same issue. Maybe not the most elegant solution but it works if you pass everything as a single argument:

"args" : ["+model_path='logs/fc/version_7/checkpoints/epoch=19-step=3700.ckpt'"]

Note that you need the single quotes to escape the remaining equal signs. For more information, please check Hydra's override syntax.

Edit: From the Hydra docs on Quoted Values:

to include a single quote in a single quoted string, use ' (for double quotes in a double quoted string, use ")

I have tried this and it works in my case.

"args": [
                "device=0",
                "semantic_inversion=true",
                "unconstrained=false",
                "spatial_perturbation=false",
                "temporal_perturbation=false",
                "num_steps=5000000",
                "warm_up.start_step=4000000",
                "warm_up.end_step=5000000",
                "keyframe_selection_scheme=uncond"
            ]
