32 Features
34 · Plugin architecture: Adding new checks is easy.
35 · Parseable output: Jump to error location in your editor.
37 · Small: Just one Python file, requires only stdlib. You can use just
39 the pycodestyle.py file for this purpose.
40 · Comes with a comprehensive test suite.
42 Disclaimer
44 This utility does not enforce every single rule of PEP 8. It helps to
45 verify that some coding conventions are applied but it does not intend
46 to be exhaustive. Some rules cannot be expressed with a simple algo‐
47 rithm, and other rules are only guidelines which you could circumvent
48 when you need to.
49 Always remember this statement from PEP 8:
51 A style guide is about consistency. Consistency with this style
52 guide is important. Consistency within a project is more important.
53 Consistency within one module or function is most important.
54 Among other things, these features are currently not in the scope of
56 the pycodestyle library:
57 · naming conventions: this kind of feature is supported through plug‐
59 ins. Install flake8 and the pep8-naming extension to use this fea‐
60 ture.
61 · docstring conventions: they are not in the scope of this library; see
63 the pydocstyle project.
64 · automatic fixing: see the section PEP8 Fixers in the related tools
66 page.
67 Installation
69 You can install, upgrade, uninstall pycodestyle.py with these commands:
70 $ pip install pycodestyle
72 $ pip install --upgrade pycodestyle
73 $ pip uninstall pycodestyle
74 Example usage and output
76 $ pycodestyle --first optparse.py
77 optparse.py:69:11: E401 multiple imports on one line
78 optparse.py:77:1: E302 expected 2 blank lines, found 1
79 optparse.py:88:5: E301 expected 1 blank line, found 0
80 optparse.py:222:34: W602 deprecated form of raising exception
81 optparse.py:347:31: E211 whitespace before '('
82 optparse.py:357:17: E201 whitespace after '{'
83 optparse.py:472:29: E221 multiple spaces before operator
84 optparse.py:544:21: W601 .has_key() is deprecated, use 'in'
85 You can also make pycodestyle.py show the source code for each error,
87 and even the relevant text from PEP 8:
88 $ pycodestyle --show-source --show-pep8 testsuite/E40.py
90 testsuite/E40.py:2:10: E401 multiple imports on one line
91 import os, sys
92 ^
93 Imports should usually be on separate lines.
94 Okay: import os\nimport sys
96 E401: import sys, os
97 Or you can display how often each error was found:
99 $ pycodestyle --statistics -qq Python-2.5/Lib
101 232 E201 whitespace after '['
102 599 E202 whitespace before ')'
103 631 E203 whitespace before ','
104 842 E211 whitespace before '('
105 2531 E221 multiple spaces before operator
106 4473 E301 expected 1 blank line, found 0
107 4006 E302 expected 2 blank lines, found 1
108 165 E303 too many blank lines (4)
109 325 E401 multiple imports on one line
110 3615 E501 line too long (82 characters)
111 612 W601 .has_key() is deprecated, use 'in'
112 1188 W602 deprecated form of raising exception
113 You can also make pycodestyle.py show the error text in different for‐
115 mats by using --format having options default/pylint/custom:
116 $ pycodestyle testsuite/E40.py --format=default
118 testsuite/E40.py:2:10: E401 multiple imports on one line
119 $ pycodestyle testsuite/E40.py --format=pylint
121 testsuite/E40.py:2: [E401] multiple imports on one line
122 $ pycodestyle testsuite/E40.py --format='%(path)s|%(row)d|%(col)d| %(code)s %(text)s'
124 testsuite/E40.py|2|10| E401 multiple imports on one line
125 Variables in the custom format option

143 Quick help is available on the command line:
145 $ pycodestyle -h
147 Usage: pycodestyle [options] input ...
148 Options:
150 --version show program's version number and exit
151 -h, --help show this help message and exit
152 -v, --verbose print status messages, or debug with -vv
153 -q, --quiet report only file names, or nothing with -qq
154 --first show first occurrence of each error
155 --exclude=patterns exclude files or directories which match these comma
156 separated patterns (default: .svn,CVS,.bzr,.hg,.git)
157 --filename=patterns when parsing directories, only check filenames matching
158 these comma separated patterns (default: *.py)
159 --select=errors select errors and warnings (e.g. E,W6)
160 --ignore=errors skip errors and warnings (e.g. E4,W)
161 --show-source show source code for each error
162 --show-pep8 show text of PEP 8 for each error (implies --first)
163 --statistics count errors and warnings
164 --count print total number of errors and warnings to standard
165 error and set exit code to 1 if total is not null
166 --max-line-length=n set maximum allowed line length (default: 79)
167 --hang-closing hang closing bracket instead of matching indentation of
168 opening bracket's line
169 --format=format set the error format [default|pylint|<custom>]
170 --diff report only lines changed according to the unified diff
171 received on STDIN
172 Testing Options:
174 --benchmark measure processing speed
175 Configuration:
177 The project options are read from the [pycodestyle] section of the
178 tox.ini file or the setup.cfg file located in any parent folder of the
179 path(s) being processed. Allowed options are: exclude, filename, select,
180 ignore, max-line-length, hang-closing, count, format, quiet, show-pep8,
181 show-source, statistics, verbose.
182 --config=path user config file location
184 (default: ~/.config/pycodestyle)
185 Configuration
187 The behaviour may be configured at two levels, the user and project
188 levels.
189 At the user level, settings are read from the following locations:
191 If on Windows:
193 ~\.pycodestyle
194 Otherwise, if the XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable is defined:
196 XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pycodestyle
197 Else if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not defined:
199 ~/.config/pycodestyle
200 Example:
202 [pycodestyle]
204 count = False
205 ignore = E226,E302,E41
206 max-line-length = 160
207 statistics = True
208 At the project level, a setup.cfg file or a tox.ini file is read if
210 present. If none of these files have a [pycodestyle] section, no
211 project specific configuration is loaded.

527 (*) In the default configuration, the checks E121, E123, E126, E133,
529 E226, E241, E242, E704, W503 and W504 are ignored because they are not
530 rules unanimously accepted, and PEP 8 does not enforce them. The check
531 W503 is mutually exclusive with check W504. The check E133 is mutually
532 exclusive with check E123. Use switch --hang-closing to report E133
533 instead of E123.
534 (^) These checks can be disabled at the line level using the # noqa
536 special comment. This possibility should be reserved for special
537 cases.
538 Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
539 Note: most errors can be listed with such one-liner:
541 $ python pycodestyle.py --first --select E,W testsuite/ --format '%(code)s: %(text)s'
543 Related tools
545 The flake8 checker is a wrapper around pycodestyle and similar tools.
546 It supports plugins.
547 Other tools which use pycodestyle are referenced in the Wiki: list of
549 related tools.
550
552 Automated tests
553 You can also execute pycodestyle tests from Python code. For example,
554 this can be highly useful for automated testing of coding style confor‐
555 mance in your project:
556 import unittest
558 import pycodestyle
559 class TestCodeFormat(unittest.TestCase):
562 def test_conformance(self):
564 """Test that we conform to PEP-8."""
565 style = pycodestyle.StyleGuide(quiet=True)
566 result = style.check_files(['file1.py', 'file2.py'])
567 self.assertEqual(result.total_errors, 0,
568 "Found code style errors (and warnings).")
569 If you are using nosetests for running tests, remove quiet=True since
571 Nose suppresses stdout.
572 There's also a shortcut for checking a single file:
574 import pycodestyle
576 fchecker = pycodestyle.Checker('testsuite/E27.py', show_source=True)
578 file_errors = fchecker.check_all()
579 print("Found %s errors (and warnings)" % file_errors)
581 Configuring tests
583 You can configure automated pycodestyle tests in a variety of ways.
584 For example, you can pass in a path to a configuration file that
586 pycodestyle should use:
587 import pycodestyle
589 style = pycodestyle.StyleGuide(config_file='/path/to/tox.ini')
591 You can also set specific options explicitly:
593 style = pycodestyle.StyleGuide(ignore=['E501'])
595 Skip file header
597 Another example is related to the feature request #143: skip a number
598 of lines at the beginning and the end of a file. This use case is easy
599 to implement through a custom wrapper for the PEP 8 library:
600 #!python
602 import pycodestyle
603 LINES_SLICE = slice(14, -20)
605 class StyleGuide(pycodestyle.StyleGuide):
607 """This subclass of pycodestyle.StyleGuide will skip the first and last lines
608 of each file."""

808 Source code
809 The source code is currently available on GitHub under the terms and
810 conditions of the Expat license. Fork away!
811 · Source code and issue tracker on GitHub.
813 · Continuous tests against Python 2.6 through 3.6 as well as the
815 nightly Python build and PyPy, on Travis CI platform.
816 Direction
818 Some high-level aims and directions to bear in mind for contributions:
819 · pycodestyle is intended to be as fast as possible. Using the ast
821 module defeats that purpose. The pep8-naming plugin exists for this
822 sort of functionality.
823 · If you want to provide extensibility / plugins, please see flake8 -
825 pycodestyle doesn't want or need a plugin architecture.
826 · Python 2.6 support is still deemed important.
828 · pycodestyle aims to have no external dependencies.
830 Contribute
832 You can add checks to this program by writing plugins. Each plugin is
833 a simple function that is called for each line of source code, either
834 physical or logical.
835 Physical line:
837 · Raw line of text from the input file.
839 Logical line:
841 · Multi-line statements converted to a single line.
843 · Stripped left and right.
845 · Contents of strings replaced with "xxx" of same length.
847 · Comments removed.
849 The check function requests physical or logical lines by the name of
851 the first argument:
852 def maximum_line_length(physical_line)
854 def extraneous_whitespace(logical_line)
855 def blank_lines(logical_line, blank_lines, indent_level, line_number)
856 The last example above demonstrates how check plugins can request addi‐
858 tional information with extra arguments. All attributes of the Checker
859 object are available. Some examples:
860 · lines: a list of the raw lines from the input file
862 · tokens: the tokens that contribute to this logical line
864 · line_number: line number in the input file
866 · total_lines: number of lines in the input file
868 · blank_lines: blank lines before this one
870 · indent_char: indentation character in this file (" " or "\t")
872 · indent_level: indentation (with tabs expanded to multiples of 8)
874 · previous_indent_level: indentation on previous line
876 · previous_logical: previous logical line
878 Check plugins can also maintain per-file state. If you need this,
880 declare a parameter named checker_state. You will be passed a dict,
881 which will be the same one for all lines in the same file but a differ‐
882 ent one for different files. Each check plugin gets its own dict, so
883 you don't need to worry about clobbering the state of other plugins.
884 The docstring of each check function shall be the relevant part of text
886 from PEP 8. It is printed if the user enables --show-pep8. Several
887 docstrings contain examples directly from the PEP 8 document.
888 Okay: spam(ham[1], {eggs: 2})
890 E201: spam( ham[1], {eggs: 2})
891 These examples are verified automatically when pycodestyle.py is run
893 with the --doctest option. You can add examples for your own check
894 functions. The format is simple: "Okay" or error/warning code followed
895 by colon and space, the rest of the line is example source code. If
896 you put 'r' before the docstring, you can use \n for newline and \t for
897 tab.
898 Then be sure to pass the tests:
900 $ python pycodestyle.py --testsuite testsuite
902 $ python pycodestyle.py --doctest
903 $ python pycodestyle.py --verbose pycodestyle.py
904 When contributing to pycodestyle, please observe our Code of Conduct.
906 To run the tests, the core developer team and Travis CI use tox:
908 $ pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
910 $ tox
911 All the tests should pass for all available interpreters, with the sum‐
913 mary of:
914 congratulations :)
