Run multiple python linters easily

multilint

Run multiple python linters easily.

Installation and Usage

Install with pip:

pip install multilint

Run with:

multilint

How it works

I like to keep my projects tidy with a standard set of linters. Running them all turned out to be easier with a wrapper script, which I ended up copy-pasting between them all. This project stops me needing to copy/paste, centralizing running all these neat tools.

In order, it will is these linters are installed, and if so, run them:

• Run flake8, for code quality

• Run isort in ‘diff’ mode, for import sorting

• Run modernize in ‘diff’ mode, for python 2/3 compatibility

• Run python setup.py check, to ensure that your setup.py is well configured. This will require docutils, and maybe Pygments if your long_description uses any code highlighting.

If any of them fail, multilint stops and dies with a non-zero exit code. Otherwise it succeeds!

You need to configure the paths that will be linted (by default, only setup.py is linted). Put a section in your setup.cfg like:

[multilint]
paths = my_package
        tests
        setup.py

Usage with tox

I normally run my tests with tox. An example tox.ini to use multilint to do all your linting would be:

[tox]
envlist =
    py{27,35},
    py{27,35}-codestyle

[testenv]
deps = -rrequirements.txt
commands = py.test

[testenv:py27-codestyle]
commands = multilint

[testenv:py35-codestyle]
commands = multilint

Just put multilint, flake8, etc. in your requirements.txt and they’ll automatically run.

History

Pending

• New notes here

1.0.1 (2016-07-16)

• Fix modernize running on Python 2.

• Run isort in the same Python process rather than with subprocess

• Properly gate flake8 and isort so that they run only if they are installed.

1.0.0 (2016-06-19)

• First release on PyPI.
