.. currentmodule:: pep8
Introduction
============
pep8 is a tool to check your Python code against some of the style
conventions in `PEP 8`_.
.. contents::
:local:
Features
--------
* Plugin architecture: Adding new checks is easy.
* Parseable output: Jump to error location in your editor.
* Small: Just one Python file, requires only stdlib. You can use just
the pep8.py file for this purpose.
* Comes with a comprehensive test suite.
Disclaimer
----------
This utility does not enforce every single rule of PEP 8. It helps to
verify that some coding conventions are applied but it does not intend
to be exhaustive. Some rules cannot be expressed with a simple algorithm,
and other rules are only guidelines which you could circumvent when you
need to.
Always remember this statement from `PEP 8`_:
*A style guide is about consistency. Consistency with this style guide is
important. Consistency within a project is more important. Consistency
within one module or function is most important.*
Among other things, these features are currently not in the scope of
the ``pep8`` library:
* **naming conventions**: this kind of feature is supported through plugins.
Install `flake8 <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/flake8>`_ and the
`pep8-naming extension <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pep8-naming>`_ to use
this feature.
* **docstring conventions**: they are not in the scope of this library;
see the `pep257 project <https://github.com/GreenSteam/pep257>`_.
* **automatic fixing**: see the section *PEP8 Fixers* in the
:ref:`related tools <related-tools>` page.
Installation
------------
You can install, upgrade, uninstall pep8.py with these commands::
$ pip install pep8
$ pip install --upgrade pep8
$ pip uninstall pep8
There's also a package for Debian/Ubuntu, but it's not always the
latest version::
$ sudo apt-get install pep8
Example usage and output
------------------------
::
$ pep8 --first optparse.py
optparse.py:69:11: E401 multiple imports on one line
optparse.py:77:1: E302 expected 2 blank lines, found 1
optparse.py:88:5: E301 expected 1 blank line, found 0
optparse.py:222:34: W602 deprecated form of raising exception
optparse.py:347:31: E211 whitespace before '('
optparse.py:357:17: E201 whitespace after '{'
optparse.py:472:29: E221 multiple spaces before operator
optparse.py:544:21: W601 .has_key() is deprecated, use 'in'
You can also make pep8.py show the source code for each error, and
even the relevant text from PEP 8::
$ pep8 --show-source --show-pep8 testsuite/E40.py
testsuite/E40.py:2:10: E401 multiple imports on one line
import os, sys
^
Imports should usually be on separate lines.
Okay: import os\nimport sys
E401: import sys, os
Or you can display how often each error was found::
$ pep8 --statistics -qq Python-2.5/Lib
232 E201 whitespace after '['
599 E202 whitespace before ')'
631 E203 whitespace before ','
842 E211 whitespace before '('
2531 E221 multiple spaces before operator
4473 E301 expected 1 blank line, found 0
4006 E302 expected 2 blank lines, found 1
165 E303 too many blank lines (4)
325 E401 multiple imports on one line
3615 E501 line too long (82 characters)
612 W601 .has_key() is deprecated, use 'in'
1188 W602 deprecated form of raising exception
You can also make pep8.py show the error text in different formats by using --format having options default/pylint/custom::
$ pep8 testsuite/E40.py --format=default
testsuite/E40.py:2:10: E401 multiple imports on one line
$ pep8 testsuite/E40.py --format=pylint
testsuite/E40.py:2: [E401] multiple imports on one line
$ pep8 testsuite/E40.py --format='%(path)s|%(row)d|%(col)d| %(code)s %(text)s'
testsuite/E40.py|2|10| E401 multiple imports on one line
Variables in the ``custom`` format option
+----------------+------------------+
| Variable | Significance |
+================+==================+
| ``path`` | File name |
+----------------+------------------+
| ``row`` | Row number |
+----------------+------------------+
| ``col`` | Column number |
+----------------+------------------+
| ``code`` | Error code |
+----------------+------------------+
| ``text`` | Error text |
+----------------+------------------+
Quick help is available on the command line::
$ pep8 -h
Usage: pep8 [options] input ...
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose print status messages, or debug with -vv
-q, --quiet report only file names, or nothing with -qq
--first show first occurrence of each error
--exclude=patterns exclude files or directories which match these comma
separated patterns (default: .svn,CVS,.bzr,.hg,.git)
--filename=patterns when parsing directories, only check filenames matching
these comma separated patterns (default: *.py)
--select=errors select errors and warnings (e.g. E,W6)
--ignore=errors skip errors and warnings (e.g. E4,W)
--show-source show source code for each error
--show-pep8 show text of PEP 8 for each error (implies --first)
--statistics count errors and warnings
--count print total number of errors and warnings to standard
error and set exit code to 1 if total is not null
--max-line-length=n set maximum allowed line length (default: 79)
--hang-closing hang closing bracket instead of matching indentation of
opening bracket's line
--format=format set the error format [default|pylint|<custom>]
--diff report only lines changed according to the unified diff
received on STDIN
Testing Options:
--benchmark measure processing speed
Configuration:
The project options are read from the [pep8] section of the tox.ini
file or the setup.cfg file located in any parent folder of the path(s)
being processed. Allowed options are: exclude, filename, select,
ignore, max-line-length, hang-closing, count, format, quiet, show-pep8,
show-source, statistics, verbose.
--config=path user config file location (default: ~/.config/pep8)
Configuration
-------------
The behaviour may be configured at two levels, the user and project levels.
At the user level, settings are read from the following locations:
If on Windows:
``~\.pep8``
Otherwise, if the :envvar:`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable is defined:
``XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pep8``
Else if :envvar:`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` is not defined:
``~/.config/pep8``
Example::
[pep8]
ignore = E226,E302,E41
max-line-length = 160
At the project level, a ``setup.cfg`` file or a ``tox.ini`` file is read if
present (``.pep8`` file is also supported, but it is deprecated). If none of
these files have a ``[pep8]`` section, no project specific configuration is
loaded.
If the ``ignore`` option is not in the configuration and not in the arguments,
only the error codes ``E123/E133``, ``E226`` and ``E241/E242`` are ignored
(see below).

**(*)** In the default configuration, the checks **E121**, **E123**, **E126**,
**E133**, **E226**, **E241**, **E242** and **E704** are ignored because they
are not rules unanimously accepted, and `PEP 8`_ does not enforce them. The
check **E133** is mutually exclusive with check **E123**. Use switch ``--hang-
closing`` to report **E133** instead of **E123**.
**(^)** These checks can be disabled at the line level using the ``# noqa``
special comment. This possibility should be reserved for special cases.
*Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.*
Note: most errors can be listed with such one-liner::
$ python pep8.py --first --select E,W testsuite/ --format '%(code)s: %(text)s'
