Utilities and helpers for writing Pylint plugins. This is not a direct Pylint plugin, but rather a set of tools and functions used by other plugins such aspylint-django andpylint-celery.

Create virtualenv:

python3.8 -m venv .pylint-plugin-utilssource .pylint-plugin-utils/bin/activatepip install --upgrade pip setuptools

We usetox for running the test suite. You should be able to install it with:

pip install tox pytest

To run the test suite for a particular Python version, you can do:

tox -e py39

To run individual tests withtox, you can do:

tox -e py39 -- -k test_linter_should_be_pickleable

We usepytest for testingpylint, which you can use without usingtox for a faster development cycle.

If you want to run tests on a specific portion of the code withpytest,pytest-cov and your local python version::

pip install pytest-cov# Everything:python3 -m pytest tests/ --cov=pylint_plugin_utilscoverage html
