pyvelocity 0.8.1

Automates task to check configurations about Python project to follow best practices to increase development velocity.

pyvelocity

Automates task to check configurations about Python project to follow best practices to increase development velocity.

Attention

The development status of this package is Beta now. It may not be able to keep backward compatibility. Be careful to use, especially for CI.

Available Checks

PyVelocity performs the following checks to ensure your Python project follows best practices:

Core Configuration Checks

line-length

Ensures consistent line length settings across all Python development tools:

• docformatter: wrap-descriptions and wrap-summaries
• isort: line_length
• Black: line-length
• flake8: max-line-length
• Ruff: line-length
• Pylint: format.max-line-length

using-py-project-toml

Verifies that your project uses pyproject.toml for configuration instead of legacy files.

legacy-setup-files

Ensures that neither setup.py nor setup.cfg files are present in the project. These legacy configuration files should be replaced with pyproject.toml for modern Python packaging.

Project Metadata Checks

classifiers

Validates that Python version classifiers in pyproject.toml are consistent with the requires-python field. For example, if requires-python = ">=3.9", the classifiers should include all supported Python versions from 3.9 to the latest available.

requires-python

Ensures that the requires-python field supports the latest stable Python version to encourage adoption of newer Python features and improvements.

readme

Checks that the readme field is properly configured as "README.md" in the [project] section of pyproject.toml.

keywords

Ensures that at least one keyword is defined in the [project] section of pyproject.toml. Keywords help improve package discoverability on PyPI and other package indexes.

Package Configuration Checks

zip-safe-false

Verifies that zip-safe = false is set in the [tool.setuptools] section to prevent issues with modern Python packaging.

typed

Ensures proper type hint configuration for typed packages:

• Validates that tool.setuptools.package-data includes "*" = ["py.typed"]
• Checks for the presence of py.typed files in package directories
• Requires the "Typing :: Typed" classifier in project metadata

This check helps ensure your package properly declares itself as typed for better IDE support and type checking.

Quickstart

1. Install

pip install pyvelocity

2. Run command

Run the following command in your project directory (where pyproject.toml exists):

pyvelocity

Expected Output

Success: If all checks pass, you'll see:

Looks high velocity! ⚡️ 🚄 ✨

Issues Found: If checks fail, PyVelocity will display specific error messages and exit with a non-zero status code, making it perfect for CI/CD integration.

How do I...

Ignore specific check?

You can configure PyVelocity to ignore specific checks by adding them to the filter list in pyproject.toml. For example, to ignore the line-length and typed checks:

[tool.pyvelocity]
filter = [
  "line-length",
  "typed"
]

Available check IDs:

• line-length
• using-py-project-toml
• legacy-setup-files
• classifiers
• requires-python
• readme
• keywords
• zip-safe-false
• typed
