Flake8 is a wrapper around these tools:

• PyFlakes
• pycodestyle
• Ned Batchelder's McCabe script

Flake8 runs all the tools by launching the singleflake8 command.It displays the warnings in a per-file, merged output.

It also adds a few features:

• files that contain this line are skipped:

  # flake8: noqa

• lines that contain a# noqa comment at the end will not issue warnings.

• you can ignore specific errors on a line with# noqa: <error>, e.g.,# noqa: E234. Multiple codes can be given, separated by comma. Thenoqa token is case insensitive, the colon before the list of codes is required otherwise the part afternoqa is ignored

• Git and Mercurial hooks

• extendable throughflake8.extension andflake8.formatting entrypoints

See ourquickstart documentation for how to installand get started with Flake8.
