A collection of code maintenance tools for Python projects. These are especially useful as pre-commit hooks.

Installation

pip install py-gadzooks

Requires Python 3.9 or higher.

Usage

Once installed, gadzooks will be available as a command-line executable.

Different tools can be called as subcommands, which are as follows:

Subcommand	Description
build-docs	Build project documentation
check-format	Check code formatting
check-version	Check version consistency
loc-summarize	Summarize lines of code

To view the help and options for a particular subcommand, do:

gadzooks <SUBCOMMAND> --help

loc-summarize

Computes various lines-of-code metrics such as LOC (lines of code), LLOC (logical lines of code), and SLOC (source lines of code). Uses the radon tool to do this.

The input argument is a path or list of paths to look for Python source files.

Example:

gadzooks loc-summarize .

Output:

Checked 4 source file(s)

LINE STATS
----------
LOC:             244
LLOC:            198
SLOC:            182
Comments:          6
Single comments:  15
Multi:            10
Blank:            37

check-version

Versions may appear in multiple locations within a project, including:

• A source file such as __init__.py or __version__.py
• Git tag
• Locally built wheels
  • Can be useful for ensuring you have remembered to build the latest version and publish it to PyPI
• An entry in a CHANGELOG file

This subcommand checks for consistency across these locations.

For now, a valid version string is required to be a sequence of three integers separated by ., for example, 3.7.1. In the future, the format of version strings will become more flexible.

A valid Git tag may be a version string, optionally prefixed with v, for example, v3.7.1.

Option	Description	Default
--pkg-name PKG_NAME	Name of package	Current directory
--dist-name DIST_NAME	Name of PyPI distribution	<PKG_NAME>
--version-path VERSION_PATH	Path to file where package version is defined	<PKG_NAME>/__init__.py
--check-tag	Check that latest tag is valid
--check-dist	Check version of latest built wheel
--dist-dir DIST_DIR	Directory where wheels are built	dist
--changelog CHANGELOG	Changelog file
--changelog-version-regex	Pattern to match to find version in changelog file ({version} within the pattern marks the target version)	{version}

check-format

Runs an installed code formatter on source files. Currently supported formatters (for Python code only) are:

• Black
• Ruff
• Yapf

Example usage:

gadzooks check-format . --formatter black --ignore-patterns "\s*" -- --line-length 120 --skip-string-normalization

If -- is present, the arguments that come before it are gadzooks' arguments; those that come after it are passed to the formatter program.

check-format does not (by default) edit the code in place, but rather prints out a stream of diffs indicating what formatting changes would be made. The user may choose to apply the changes or not.

The program exits with return code 1 if there are any changes, and 0 otherwise.

Option	Description	Default
(positional)	Files or directories to check	(required)
--formatter	Formatter program (black, ruff, or yapf)	black
--ignore-patterns	One or more regular expressions that will be ignored in the diffs (e.g. "\s*" ignores changes where whitespace lines are added or removed)

build-docs

Runs a command to build docs within your project.

A typical pattern is to build documentation from template files such as Markdown, then save them out as HTML. Often this is done external to source control via some CI process which builds and deploys docs to a website. However, in some cases you may want to commit the built documentation to your Git repo. This is an easy step to forget, so gadzooks let you make the action into a pre-commit hook.

Example usage:

gadzooks build-docs --src-docs docs -- make docs

The --src-docs option lets you specify which files are the source docs to be built. gadzooks will first check if any of these files has changed since the last time the docs were built (by means of a saved checksum file). If none has changed, it will do nothing. Otherwise, it will call the command following the final -- (in the example above, make docs).

Option	Description	Default
--src-docs SRC_DOCS	Files or directories containing source docs
--checksum-file CHECKSUM_FILE	File where SHA-1 checksum is stored	.doc-checksum

Pre-commit hooks

You can set up individual gadzooks subcommands to run as pre-commit hooks by configuring your .pre-commit-config.yaml file to point to this Github repo, specifying your desired subcommand by id, along with the command-line arguments.

You should also set pass_filenames to false to avoid passing filenames as command-line arguments by default, and verbose to true so that gadzooks output will be visible.

Here is an example of a section of a .pre-commit-config.yaml file:

- repo: https://github.com/jeremander/gadzooks
  rev: v0.2.0
  hooks:
    - id: loc-summarize
      args: ['.']
      pass_filenames: false
      verbose: true
      # before pushing, require the git tag match the package version
    - id: check-version
      args: ['--check-tag']
      pass_filenames: false
      verbose: true
      stages: [push]
