Can't add "python.analysis.extraPaths" in nvim for using jedi-ls

Question

I have a python repository, I'm using nvim as my ide and jedi-language-server for writing python files. I want to add a path like I can in my .vscode/settings.json -

{
    "python.analysis.extraPaths": [
        "./<path>"
    ]
}⏎

This allows the editor to access my dependencies, how do i set the same in nvim

I used :set path, but I still get where the issue is.

You should probably be using g:jedi#added_sys_path = [...], which is documented here.

However I would also point out that in general with a good setup you should probably look into setting up your Python environments properly. In those cases, jedi-vim should always work properly. For your own libraries, pip install -e . might be interesting (to add them to the system path). For other software make sure you activate the correct virtualenv, which jedi-vim can then pick up.
