Description

Pylint is a Python source code analyzer which looks for programming errors, helps enforcing a coding standard and sniffs for some code smells (as defined in Martin Fowler's Refactoring book). Pylint can be seen as another PyChecker since nearly all tests you can do with PyChecker can also be done with Pylint. However, Pylint offers some more features, like checking length of lines of code, checking if variable names are well-formed according to your coding standard, or checking if declared interfaces are truly implemented, and much more. Additionally, it is possible to write plugins to add your own checks.

py-pylint: updated to 4.1.3

What's new in Pylint 4.1.3? False Positives Fixed - Fixed a false positive for ``attribute-defined-outside-init`` when an attribute is assigned inside the setter of an old-style, non-decorator ``property(fget, fset)`` call. The decorator form (``@property`` / ``@x.setter``) was already exempted by the fix for 409; the classic call form was not. - Fix a false positive for ``used-before-assignment`` when a name bound by an earlier target of the same assignment is used by a later target, as in ``a = b[a] = 0``. - Fix a ``no-member`` false positive in a comprehension inside a branch that cannot run, such as ``if sys.platform == "win32":`` on Linux. Like the rest of the branch, the comprehension is no longer checked for missing members. …

py-pylint: update to 4.1.2.

4.1.2 False Positives Fixed Fixed a false positive unbalanced-tuple-unpacking when unpacking a tuple concatenation whose elements have several possible values. Fixed by upgrading astroid to 4.3.3. Closes #2621 Other Bug Fixes Fixed a crash when calling __bases__ on a class. Fixed by upgrading astroid to 4.3.3. Closes #11491 Fix a crash (astroid-error) when the class of a called attribute cannot be fully inferred, for example when the attribute is used as a with statement target or inside a comprehension. Closes #11492 Fix a crash when a name bound by a type statement (a TypeVar) is used in a with statement. Closes #11510 Fixed a crash (TypeError) in the variables checker when checking a class …

py-pylint: updated to 4.0.9

What's new in Pylint 4.0.9? False Positives Fixed - Fixed a false positive for ``no-self-use`` on a method that only uses ``self`` before a locally defined class (or other nested method), because the checker's could-be-a-function tracking state was not restored after visiting the nested method. - Fix a false positive for :ref:`not-callable` when calling functions constructed with ``types.FunctionType`` or ``types.LambdaType``. - Fix a false positive for ``unnecessary-direct-lambda-call`` when a directly called lambda in a class body wraps a comprehension containing an assignment expression. PEP 572 makes that a ``SyntaxError`` without the lambda's scope, so following the message produced code that would not compile. …

py-pylint: update to 4.0.8.

False Positives Fixed Fix a false positive for :ref:unspecified-encoding when an open call uses a mode argument that cannot be inferred. Closes #10201 Fix a false positive for invalid-name (C0103) on names assigned in an if __name__ == "__main__": block. Such a block reads like a script body, so a name there is now accepted if it matches either the constant or the variable naming style. Closes #10766 Fix false positives for :ref:invalid-str-returned, :ref:invalid-repr-returned, :ref:invalid-format-returned, :ref:invalid-bytes-returned, :ref:invalid-hash-returned, :ref:invalid-index-returned, :ref:invalid-length-returned, :ref:invalid-length-hint-returned, :ref:invalid-getnewargs-returned and …
