pylintfileheader 0.1.0

Enables pylint to force a consistent file header.

pylint-file-header

Pylint plugin to enforce consistent file/module header.

Installation

You can install the package with pip from pypi:

pip install pylintfileheader

Configuration

Generate a .pylintrc file by executing pylint --generate-rcfile. Then add pylintfileheader to the plugins to load and set the file-header option to the regular expression that the file header should match.
When the file-header setting is omitted, pylint will pass.
