Re: [code-quality] Pyflakes forked to Frosted

Also, feel free to list this mailing list in your readme. Pylint, pep8, PyFlakes, mccabe, and Flake8 all use this as their project mailing lists. On Jan 19, 2014 11:00 AM, "timothy crosley" wrote:

Hi Ian,

I do plan on maintaining this fork, and I had just subscribed and verified my email. I'm not sure why it still required moderation - is there a waiting period? Different subscription modes?

In any case, Thanks for the helpful feedback! I will implement this conceptual error codes, as I agree it is more logical and standard. I am following semantic versioning so it will mean incrementing to new major version - but it shouldn't be too big of a deal as frosted does not yet have a large group of users.

Thanks!

Timothy

If you're going to continue to maintain this fork you should join the mailing list so your messages do not need to be moderated.

That said, I have a few points of feedback for you:

Error numbers in tools such as pep8 and pyflakes (although flake8 adds them to pyflakes) are usually not made to be entirely successive. For the most part, there are groupings of errors. The best explanation of this is pep8's documentation: http://pep8.readthedocs.org/en/latest/intro.html#error-codes

Anything starting with E1 is related to indentation, anything starting with E2 is related to whitespace. These are conceptually classes of errors. PyLint also follows this convention if I remember correctly and you would do well to do the same. The error codes that Flake8 adds to PyFlakes follow that convention as well.

This probably also means that if you're following semver that this will be a new major version bump since you're changing how items are ignored.

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to let you know, after Pyflakes seemed dead for about 5 months I created a fork called Frosted:

https://github.com/timothycrosley/frosted

While it seems that Pyflakes is somewhat alive again, In the fork a lot of code has been simplified and a lot of necessary but missing features (such as configuration) have been added. Additionally, I've merged in a lot of improvements from the Pyflakes community at large. I will be working hard to improve Frosted further, and any suggestions / feature improvements

...

recommended will be met with enthusiasm :).

While, I would be willing to merge the two projects at some later

think in the short-term the rapid development and freedom working under a new project name will bring - will be very beneficial. I have added Florent Xicluna and Steven Myint as collaborators on the project, as these are both developers I have high regard for, and remove the possibility of me being the single source of failure for unmerged pull-requests.

So if you have time, please check out the project, request features, and make pull requests. Lets make a great Python code checker even better!

Thanks!

Timothy
