.. _requirements:

Requirements:
=============

- Python (3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10)
- If your tests are failing on Win platform you are missing: ``curses`` -
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ (The curses library supplies a
terminal-independent screen-painting and keyboard-handling facility for
text-based terminals)

For python versions < 3.7 install pylama 7.7.1

.. _installation:

Installation:
=============
**Pylama** can be installed using pip: ::

$ pip install pylama

TOML configuration can be enabled optionally: ::

$ pip install pylama[toml]

You may optionally install the requirements with the library: ::

$ pip install pylama[mypy]
$ pip install pylama[pylint]
$ pip install pylama[eradicate]
$ pip install pylama[radon]
$ pip install pylama[vulture]

Or install them all: ::

$ pip install pylama[all]

.. _quickstart:

Quickstart
==========

**Pylama** is easy to use and really fun for checking code quality. Just run
`pylama` and get common output from all pylama plugins (pycodestyle_,
PyFlakes_, etc.)

Recursively check the current directory. ::

$ pylama

Recursively check a path. ::

$ pylama

Ignore errors ::

$ pylama -i W,E501

.. note:: You can choose a group of errors like `D`, `E1`, etc, or special errors like `C0312`

Choose code checkers ::

$ pylama -l "pycodestyle,mccabe"

.. _options:

Set Pylama (checkers) options
=============================

Command line options
--------------------

::

Code audit tool for python.

positional arguments:
paths Paths to files or directories for code check.

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--version show program's version number and exit
--verbose, -v Verbose mode.
--options FILE, -o FILE
Specify configuration file. Looks for pylama.ini, setup.cfg, tox.ini, or pytest.ini in the current directory (default: None)
--linters LINTERS, -l LINTERS
Select linters. (comma-separated). Choices are eradicate,mccabe,mypy,pycodestyle,pydocstyle,pyflakes,pylint,isort.
--from-stdin Interpret the stdin as a python script, whose filename needs to be passed as the path argument.
--concurrent, --async
Enable async mode. Useful for checking a lot of files.
--format {pydocstyle,pycodestyle,pylint,parsable,json}, -f {pydocstyle,pycodestyle,pylint,parsable,json}
Choose output format.
--abspath, -a Use absolute paths in output.
--max-line-length MAX_LINE_LENGTH, -m MAX_LINE_LENGTH
Maximum allowed line length
--select SELECT, -s SELECT
Select errors and warnings. (comma-separated list)
--ignore IGNORE, -i IGNORE
Ignore errors and warnings. (comma-separated)
--skip SKIP Skip files by masks (comma-separated, Ex. */messages.py)
--sort SORT Sort result by error types. Ex. E,W,D
--report REPORT, -r REPORT
Send report to file [REPORT]
--hook Install Git (Mercurial) hook.
--max-complexity MAX_COMPLEXITY
Max complexity threshold

.. note:: additional options may be available depending on installed linters

.. _modeline:

File modelines
--------------

You can set options for **Pylama** inside a source file. Use
a pylama *modeline* for this, anywhere in the file.

Format: ::

# pylama:{name1}={value1}:{name2}={value2}:...

For example, ignore warnings except W301: ::

# pylama:ignore=W:select=W301

Disable code checking for current file: ::

# pylama:skip=1

Those options have a higher priority.

.. _skiplines:

Skip lines (noqa)
-----------------

Just add ``# noqa`` at the end of a line to ignore:

::

def urgent_fuction():
unused_var = 'No errors here' # noqa

.. _config:

Configuration file
==================

**Pylama** looks for a configuration file in the current directory.

You can use a “global” configuration, stored in `.pylama.ini` in your home
directory. This will be used as a fallback configuration.

The program searches for the first matching configuration file in the
directories of command line argument. Pylama looks for the configuration in
this order: ::

./pylama.ini
./pyproject.toml
./setup.cfg
./tox.ini
./pytest.ini
~/.pylama.ini

The ``--option`` / ``-o`` argument can be used to specify a configuration file.

INI-style configuration
-----------------------

Pylama searches for sections whose names start with `pylama`.

The `pylama` section configures global options like `linters` and `skip`.

::

[pylama]
format = pylint
skip = */.tox/*,*/.env/*
linters = pylint,mccabe
ignore = F0401,C0111,E731

Set code-checkers' options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can set options for a special code checkers with pylama configurations.

::

[pylama:pyflakes]
builtins = _

[pylama:pycodestyle]
max_line_length = 100

[pylama:pylint]
max_line_length = 100
disable = R

See code-checkers' documentation for more info. Note that dashes are
replaced by underscores (e.g. Pylint's ``max-line-length`` becomes
``max_line_length``).

Set options for file (group of files)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can set options for special file (group of files)
with sections:

The options have a higher priority than in the `pylama` section.

::

[pylama:*/pylama/main.py]
ignore = C901,R0914,W0212
select = R

[pylama:*/tests.py]
ignore = C0110

[pylama:*/setup.py]
skip = 1

TOML configuration
-----------------------

Pylama searches for sections whose names start with `tool.pylama`.

The `tool.pylama` section configures global options like `linters` and `skip`.

::

[tool.pylama]
format = "pylint"
skip = "*/.tox/*,*/.env/*"
linters = "pylint,mccabe"
ignore = "F0401,C0111,E731"

Set code-checkers' options
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can set options for a special code checkers with pylama configurations.

::

[tool.pylama.linter.pyflakes]
builtins = "_"

[tool.pylama.linter.pycodestyle]
max_line_length = 100

[tool.pylama.linter.pylint]
max_line_length = 100
disable = "R"

See code-checkers' documentation for more info. Note that dashes are
replaced by underscores (e.g. Pylint's ``max-line-length`` becomes
``max_line_length``).

Set options for file (group of files)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can set options for special file (group of files)
with sections:

The options have a higher priority than in the `tool.pylama` section.

::

[[tool.pylama.files]]
path = "*/pylama/main.py"
ignore = "C901,R0914,W0212"
select = "R"

[[tool.pylama.files]]
path = "pylama:*/tests.py"
ignore = "C0110"

[[tool.pylama.files]]
path = "pylama:*/setup.py"
skip = 1

Pytest integration
==================

Pylama has Pytest_ support. The package automatically registers itself as a pytest
plugin during installation. Pylama also supports the `pytest_cache` plugin.

Check files with pylama ::

pytest --pylama ...

The recommended way to set pylama options when using pytest — configuration
files (see below).

Writing a linter
================

You can write a custom extension for Pylama.
The custom linter should be a python module. Its name should be like 'pylama_'.

In 'setup.py', 'pylama.linter' entry point should be defined. ::

setup(
# ...
entry_points={
'pylama.linter': ['lintername = pylama_lintername.main:Linter'],
}
# ...
)

'Linter' should be an instance of 'pylama.lint.Linter' class.
It must implement two methods:

1. ``allow`` takes a `path` argument and returns true if the linter can check this file for errors.
2. ``run`` takes a `path` argument and `meta` keyword arguments and returns a list of errors.

Example:
--------

Just a virtual 'WOW' checker.

setup.py: ::

setup(
name='pylama_wow',
install_requires=[ 'setuptools' ],
entry_points={
'pylama.linter': ['wow = pylama_wow.main:Linter'],
}
# ...
)

pylama_wow.py: ::

from pylama.lint import Linter as BaseLinter

class Linter(BaseLinter):

def allow(self, path):
return 'wow' in path

def run(self, path, **meta):
with open(path) as f:
if 'wow' in f.read():
return [{
lnum: 0,
col: 0,
text: '"wow" has been found.',
type: 'WOW'
}]

Run pylama from python code
---------------------------
::

from pylama.main import check_paths, parse_options

# Use and/or modify 0 or more of the options defined as keys in the variable my_redefined_options below.
# To use defaults for any option, remove that key completely.
my_redefined_options = {
'linters': ['pep257', 'pydocstyle', 'pycodestyle', 'pyflakes' ...],
'ignore': ['D203', 'D213', 'D406', 'D407', 'D413' ...],
'select': ['R1705' ...],
'sort': 'F,E,W,C,D,...',
'skip': '*__init__.py,*/test/*.py,...',
'async': True,
'force': True
...
}
# relative path of the directory in which pylama should check
my_path = '...'

options = parse_options([my_path], **my_redefined_options)
errors = check_paths(my_path, options, rootdir='.')
