flake8

---

The Flake8 Python linter (https://flake8.pycqa.org/).

Backend: pants.core

Config section: [flake8]

Basic options

skip

--[no-]flake8-skip
PANTS_FLAKE8_SKIP

default: False

Don't use Flake8 when running /home/josh/work/scie-pants/dist/scie-pants-linux-x86_64 lint

args

--flake8-args="[<shell_str>, <shell_str>, ...]"
PANTS_FLAKE8_ARGS

default: []

Arguments to pass directly to Flake8, e.g. --flake8-args="--ignore E123,W456 --enable-extensions H111"

Advanced options

version

--flake8-version=<str>
PANTS_FLAKE8_VERSION

default: flake8>=3.7.9,<3.9

Requirement string for the tool.

extra_requirements

--flake8-extra-requirements="['<str>', '<str>', ...]"
PANTS_FLAKE8_EXTRA_REQUIREMENTS

default:

[
  "setuptools<45; python_full_version == '2.7.*'",
  "setuptools; python_version > '2.7'"
]

Any additional requirement strings to use with the tool. This is useful if the tool allows you to install plugins or if you need to constrain a dependency to a certain version.

console_script

--flake8-console-script=<str>
PANTS_FLAKE8_CONSOLE_SCRIPT

default: flake8

The console script for the tool. Using this option is generally preferable to (and mutually exclusive with) specifying an --entry-point since console script names have a higher expectation of staying stable across releases of the tool. Usually, you will not want to change this from the default.

entry_point

--flake8-entry-point=<str>
PANTS_FLAKE8_ENTRY_POINT

default: None

The entry point for the tool. Generally you only want to use this option if the tool does not offer a --console-script (which this option is mutually exclusive with). Usually, you will not want to change this from the default.

config

--flake8-config=<file_option>
PANTS_FLAKE8_CONFIG

default: None

Path to .flake8 or alternative Flake8 config file

Deprecated options

None
