[ANN] pylint 0.21 / astng 0.20.1
Hi there! I'm pleased to announce a new pylint / astng release. It provides several bug fixes, as well as command line enhancements: all options for messages / reports control have been merged into two generic --enable / --disable option. Also, pylint --help is much more concise, and longer version is available through the --long-help option. Notice that because of that, this release introduce backward incompatible changes in the command line, you may have to update your scripts. Last but not least, the gui has been revisited by students from the Toronto university, that should please windows users! More details about changes in packages'ChangeLog. What is pylint ? ---------------- Pylint is a python tool that checks if a module satisfy a coding standard. Pylint can be seen as another pychecker since nearly all tests you can do with pychecker can also be done with Pylint. But Pylint offers some more features, like checking line-code's length, checking if variable names are well-formed according to your coding standard, or checking if declared interfaces are truly implemented, and much more (see http://www.logilab.org/projects/pylint/ for the complete check list). The big advantage with Pylint is that it is highly configurable, customizable, and you can easily write a small plugin to add a personal feature. The usage it quite simple : $ pylint mypackage.mymodule This command will output all the errors and warnings related to the tested code (here : mypackage.mymodule), will dump a little summary at the end, and will give a mark to the tested code. Pylint is free software distributed under the GNU Public Licence.
