wemake-python-styleguide

Welcome to the strictest and most opinionated python linter ever.

wemake-python-styleguide is actually a flake8 plugin with some other plugins as dependencies.

Quickstart

pip install wemake-python-styleguide

You will also need to create a setup.cfg file with the configuration.

We highly recommend to also use:

flake8 your_module.py

This app is still just good old flake8 And it won't change your existing workflow.

See "Usage" section in the docs for examples and integrations.

We also support Github Actions as first class-citizens Try it out!

The ultimate goal of this project is to make all people write exactly the same python code.

Maybe you can give wemake-python-styleguide a try? It has even more rules than pylint, but does not even try to mess with types.

It has way less false-positives and is based on flake8.

I tried it and it's a bit too strict for my taste - I got tons of errors to comb through.

That being said, I'm a bit tempted to start using it from day one for my next project and see how it goes :)

Awesome! Any feedback is appreciated.
