I found the documentation for pep8 but wasn\'t able to understand how to write these. I couldn\'t even find any examples with options other than setting max-line-length and igno
Sadly, the answer from Andy Hayden does not work for pytest
/ pytest-pep8
/ flake8
.
For that, you have to use either
# content of setup.cfg
[pytest]
pep8maxlinelength = 99
or
[pytest]
max-line-length=99
Strangely, the following does not work
[tool:pytest]
max-line-length=99
Add
[flake8]
max-line-length=99
They renamed pep8 to pycodestyle to avoid confusion.
You can create a setup.cfg file with:
[pycodestyle]
ignore = E226,E302,E41
max-line-length = 119
exclude =
tests/
docs/
For the error codes, you can read this documentation.
The preferred way is to use a setup.cfg
in the top-level of the project (.cfg has the same syntax as a .ini file), which should contain a [pep8]
section. For example:
[pep8]
ignore = E226,E302,E41
max-line-length = 160
Note: the error codes are defined in the pep8 docs.
[pep8]
section as pep8.
