Visual Studio Code – How to enable linting for flake8 plugins in VSCode?

I am having flake8 installed and VSCode is able to detect default checks with the squiggly lines. Now, I installed flake8-docstring but VSCode is not warning on missing docstring.

For example, running below command in powershell, gives expected output.

>> python flake8 abc.py
abc.py:1:1: D100 Missing docstring in public module

But in VSCode, it is not showing the squiggly lines.
