The Open edX project has a Jenkins job that does something similar by using a custom Python script which runs pylint, parses the generated report, and compares the number of reported issues against specified upper and lower limits: https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/blob/master/pavelib/quality.py#L166. This is particularly useful when you start applying stricter rules to a legacy codebase, and want to avoid new violations of them without immediately needing to do a huge cleanup effort. You just need to keep lowering the upper limit as the legacy violations gradually get fixed.

Hi Friends,

 

I want to integrate Pylint into my jenkins job such that the job should fail when the Pylint score is below say 8.

 

I found many plugins which displays Pylint metrics but I could not found any plugin which returns true / false or some value based on my pylint score.

 

Any idea how can this be done?

 

Thanks,

Prashant
