pytest plugin to check source code against PEP8 requirements
Project description
py.test plugin for checking PEP8 source code compliance using the pep8 module.
Usage
install via:
easy_install pytest-pep8 # or pip install pytest-pep8
and then type:
py.test --pep8
to activate source code checking. Every file ending in .py will be discovered and checked, starting from the command line arguments. For example, if you have a file like this:
# content of myfile.py somefunc( 123,456)
you can run it with:
$ py.test --pep8 =========================== test session starts ============================ platform linux2 -- Python 2.6.5 -- pytest-2.0.1.dev1 pep8 ignore opts: E202 E221 E222 E241 E301 E302 E401 E501 E701 W293 W391 W601 W602 collecting ... collected 1 items myfile.py F ================================= FAILURES ================================= ________________________________ PEP8-check ________________________________ /tmp/doc-exec-12/myfile.py:2:10: E201 whitespace after '(' somefunc( 123,456) ^ /tmp/doc-exec-12/myfile.py:2:14: E231 missing whitespace after ',' somefunc( 123,456) ^ ========================= 1 failed in 0.01 seconds =========================
Note that in the testing header you see the current list of default “ignores”. For the meaning of these error and warning codes, see the error output when running against your files or checkout pep8.py.
Configuring PEP8 options per-project
Lastly, you may configure PEP8-checking options for your project by adding an pep8options entry to your pytest.ini or setup.cfg file like this:
[pytest] pep8options = +W293 -E200
Running PEP8 checks and no other tests
You can also restrict your test run to only perform “pep8” tests and not any other tests by typing:
py.test --pep8 -k pep8
This will only run tests that are marked with the “pep8” keyword which is added for the pep8 test items added by this plugin.
Notes
The repository of this plugin is at http://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest-pep8

The code is partially based on Ronny Pfannschmidt’s pytest-codecheckers plugin.
