Project description

A plugin for flake8 finding likely bugs and design problems in your program. Contains warnings that don’t belong in pyflakes and pep8:

bug·bear  (bŭg′bâr′)
n.
1. A cause of fear, anxiety, or irritation: *Overcrowding is often
   a bugbear for train commuters.*
2. A difficult or persistent problem: *"One of the major bugbears of
   traditional AI is the difficulty of programming computers to
   recognize that different but similar objects are instances of the
   same type of thing" (Jack Copeland).*
3. A fearsome imaginary creature, especially one evoked to frighten
   children.

List of warnings

B001

Do not use bare except:, it also catches unexpected events like memory errors, interrupts, system exit, and so on. Prefer except Exception:. If you’re sure what you’re doing, be explicit and write except BaseException:.

Tests

Just run:

python setup.py test

OMG, this is Python 3 only!

Relax, you can run flake8 with all popular plugins as a tool perfectly fine under Python 3.5+ even if you want to analyze Python 2 code. This way you’ll be able to parse all of the new syntax supported on Python 3 but also effectively all the Python 2 syntax at the same time.

If you’re still invested in Python 2, there might be a small subset of deprecated syntax that you’d have to abandon… but you’re already doing that, right? six or python-future bridge the gaps.

By making the code exclusively Python 3.5+, I’m able to focus on the quality of the checks and re-use all the nice features of the new releases (check out pathlib) instead of wasting cycles on Unicode compatiblity, etc.
