How to deal with Pylint's “too-many-instance-attributes” message?

Question

I have just tried to lint some code with Pylint, and the last remaining error is

R0902: too-many-instance-attributes (8/7)

I understand the rat

Answer 1

I would disable this message altogether by adding too-many-instance-attributes to the project's pylintrc or .pylintrc file as in the example below:

[MESSAGES CONTROL]
disable=
    locally-disabled,
    locally-enabled,
    logging-format-interpolation,
    no-init,
    too-few-public-methods,
    too-many-instance-attributes,  # <-- Ensure at least this entry.
