Flake8

DEPRECATION: Use Flakehell instead

Flake8 doesn't support pyproject.toml, which is becoming the standard, so I suggest using Flakehell instead.

Flake8 is a style guide enforcement tool. Its configuration is stored in setup.cfg, tox.ini or .flake8.

File: .flake8

[flake8]
# ignore = E203, E266, E501, W503, F403, F401
max-line-length = 88
# max-complexity = 18
# select = B,C,E,F,W,T4,B9

You can use it both with:

  • Pre-commit:

    File: .pre-commit-config.yaml

    repos:
- repo: https://gitlab.com/pycqa/flake8
  rev: master
  hooks:
    - id: flake8
    • Github Actions:

    File: .github/workflows/lint.yml

    name: Lint

on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  Flake8:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: actions/setup-python@v2
      - name: Flake8
        uses: cclauss/GitHub-Action-for-Flake8@v0.5.0
