Flakes8 help on my short codes.
Good day, How can I get flakes8 plugin to yell at me when I exceed 500 lines of code(not individual lines)? I need it to help me not exceed 500 lines of code. Kindly advice Regards Oscar Sent from my iPhone
I don't know flake8 well, but one tactic is to wrap the flake8 call in a "lint" script, and do any extra checks you want in there, in Bash. eg looping over files and calling "wc -l" in this case. Apologies this is not what you asked for. On Sat, May 4, 2019, at 19:47, oscar anomnihe wrote:

Flake8 allows you to create a plugin that accepts the parameter "lines" which will provide you with a list of strings representing all of the lines in the file (including empty/blank lines). You can then call "len(lines)" and return an violation if that exceeds 500. On Sat, May 4, 2019 at 6:47 PM oscar anomnihe <oscaranomnihe@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks Ian, Is there a short sample (one or two lines) code that could make your explanation clearer to me. I will highly appreciate that. Regard Oscar Sent from my iPhone

Unfortunately, there's nothing that short that serves as an example. There is some documentation around building a plugin, though: http://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/plugin-development/index.html On Sun, May 5, 2019 at 11:09 AM oscar anomnihe <oscaranomnihe@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Oscar, Just to echo what the others have said, yes this is doable with a plugin that checks the `lines` parameter. Over the last year or so I've been working on a Flake8 plugin. I used Ian's documentation for plugin development **plus** I referred a lot to flake8-author (https://github.com/jparise/flake8-author/) a small plugin that I found. My plugin uses both lines and AST passed from Flake8 - here https://github.com/jamescooke/flake8-aaa/blob/master/src/flake8_aaa/checker.... you can see the `Checker.__init__()` has the `lines` parameter Ian mentioned. This means that Flake8 passes the lines in each file it checks when initialising the class. That will then allow you to build a `run()` function to count those lines and raise errors as required. I also found that pytest-flake8dir (https://github.com/adamchainz/pytest-flake8dir) was helpful when I was getting started, although I don't use it any more. Hope that's helpful.
