How to achieve method autocomplete for repository pattern in Python with VSCode?

I'm implementing a repository pattern in Python for my project and using VSCode as my IDE. However, I'm having trouble with method autocompletion for instances of my repository classes. When I type db.user. or db.suggestion., I don't see any suggestions for available methods like create, get, etc.

class Database:
    def __init__(self, db_file: str):
        """
        Initialize database.

        :param db_file: Path to database file.
        """
        self.db_file = db_file

        self.user = UserRepository(db_file)
        self.suggestion = SuggestionRepository(db_file)
        self.admin_action = AdminActionRepository(db_file)

class UserRepository:
    def __init__(self, db):
        self.db = db
        self.lock = asyncio.Lock()

    async def create(self, user_id, first_name, last_name):
        pass

After entering db.user. there are no hints of functions of the UserRepository subclass.

I tried this method:

self.user: UserRepository = UserRepository(db_file)
self.suggestion: SuggestionRepository = SuggestionRepository(db_file)
self.admin_action: AdminActionRepository = AdminActionRepository(db_file)

However, it does not give the desired result, and the code is: db.user.UserRepository.create() instead of the expected db.user.create()

In my stupidity, I didn't notice that it was not the class that was imported, but the file.

Solution: just import the class.
