Usage

All examples are shown with flake8, edit them for you case.

At first generate baseline file for every linter you use:

flake8 . | linthell baseline -b baseline-flake8.txt -f <linter regex>

Then lint your project via linthell:

flake8 . | linthell lint -b baseline-flake8.txt -f <linter regex>

Custom linter format

If you use another linter then you must provide custom regex string string to parse it's output. Default format is flake8 default format. Some premade formats for linters:

• flake8: (?P<path>[a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+(?:[\\/][a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+)*):(?P<line>\d+):\d+: (?P<message>[^\n]+)
• pydocstyle: (?P<path>[a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+(?:[\\/][a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+)*):(?P<line>\d+).+\n\s+(?P<message>[^\n]+)
• pylint: (?P<path>[a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+(?:[\\/][a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+)*):(?P<line>\d+):\d+: (?P<message>[^\n]+)

Create your own format regex

You can use your custom format regex. Suitable regex must contains 3 named python-like capturing groups:

• path - relative file path
• line - line number
• message - linter message

Your regex should matchs all message related to an issue because unfiltered issues are printed by the whole match.

You can test your regex against linter output with regexr.
