Up

## ambiguous_identifier

ambiguous_identifier(logical_line, tokens)

Never use the characters 'l', 'O', or 'I' as variable names.

In some fonts, these characters are indistinguishable from the numerals one and zero. When tempted to use 'l', use 'L' instead.

Okay: L = 0 Okay: o = 123 Okay: i = 42 E741: l = 0 E741: O = 123 E741: I = 42

Variables can be bound in several other contexts, including class and function definitions, 'global' and 'nonlocal' statements, exception handlers, and 'with' and 'for' statements. In addition, we have a special handling for function parameters.

Okay: except AttributeError as o: Okay: with lock as L: Okay: foo(l=12) Okay: for a in foo(l=12): E741: except AttributeError as O: E741: with lock as l: E741: global I E741: nonlocal l E741: def foo(l): E741: def foo(l=12): E741: l = foo(l=12) E741: for l in range(10): E742: class I(object): E743: def l(x):

Up

## bare_except

bare_except(logical_line, noqa)

When catching exceptions, mention specific exceptions when possible.

Okay: except Exception: Okay: except BaseException: E722: except:

Up

## blank_lines

blank_lines(logical_line, blank_lines, indent_level, line_number, blank_before, previous_logical, previous_unindented_logical_line, previous_indent_level, lines)

Separate top-level function and class definitions with two blank lines.

Method definitions inside a class are separated by a single blank line.

Extra blank lines may be used (sparingly) to separate groups of related functions. Blank lines may be omitted between a bunch of related one-liners (e.g. a set of dummy implementations).

Use blank lines in functions, sparingly, to indicate logical sections.

Okay: def a():\n pass\n\n\ndef b():\n pass Okay: def a():\n pass\n\n\nasync def b():\n pass Okay: def a():\n pass\n\n\n# Foo\n# Bar\n\ndef b():\n pass Okay: default = 1\nfoo = 1 Okay: classify = 1\nfoo = 1

E301: class Foo:\n b = 0\n def bar():\n pass E302: def a():\n pass\n\ndef b(n):\n pass E302: def a():\n pass\n\nasync def b(n):\n pass E303: def a():\n pass\n\n\n\ndef b(n):\n pass E303: def a():\n\n\n\n pass E304: @decorator\n\ndef a():\n pass E305: def a():\n pass\na() E306: def a():\n def b():\n pass\n def c():\n pass E307: def a():\n def b():\n pass\n\n\n def c():\n pass E308: def a():\n\n\n\n pass

Up

## break_after_binary_operator

break_after_binary_operator(logical_line, tokens)

Avoid breaks after binary operators.

The preferred place to break around a binary operator is before the operator, not after it.

W504: (width == 0 +\n height == 0) W504: (width == 0 and\n height == 0) W504: var = (1 &\n ~2)

Okay: foo(\n -x) Okay: foo(x\n []) Okay: x = '''\n''' + '' Okay: x = '' + '''\n''' Okay: foo(x,\n -y) Okay: foo(x, # comment\n -y)

The following should be W504 but unary_context is tricky with these Okay: var = (1 /\n -2) Okay: var = (1 +\n -1 +\n -2)

Up

## break_before_binary_operator

break_before_binary_operator(logical_line, tokens)

Avoid breaks before binary operators.

The preferred place to break around a binary operator is after the operator, not before it.

W503: (width == 0\n + height == 0) W503: (width == 0\n and height == 0) W503: var = (1\n & ~2) W503: var = (1\n / -2) W503: var = (1\n + -1\n + -2)

Okay: foo(\n -x) Okay: foo(x\n []) Okay: x = '''\n''' + '' Okay: foo(x,\n -y) Okay: foo(x, # comment\n -y)

Up

## comparison_negative

comparison_negative(logical_line)

Negative comparison should be done using "not in" and "is not".

Okay: if x not in y:\n pass Okay: assert (X in Y or X is Z) Okay: if not (X in Y):\n pass Okay: zz = x is not y E713: Z = not X in Y E713: if not X.B in Y:\n pass E714: if not X is Y:\n pass E714: Z = not X.B is Y

Up

## comparison_to_singleton

comparison_to_singleton(logical_line, noqa)

Comparison to singletons should use "is" or "is not".

Comparisons to singletons like None should always be done with "is" or "is not", never the equality operators.

Okay: if arg is not None: E711: if arg != None: E711: if None == arg: E712: if arg == True: E712: if False == arg:

Also, beware of writing if x when you really mean if x is not None -- e.g. when testing whether a variable or argument that defaults to None was set to some other value. The other value might have a type (such as a container) that could be false in a boolean context!

Up

## comparison_type

comparison_type(logical_line, noqa)

Object type comparisons should always use isinstance().

Do not compare types directly.

Okay: if isinstance(obj, int): E721: if type(obj) is type(1):

When checking if an object is a string, keep in mind that it might be a unicode string too! In Python 2.3, str and unicode have a common base class, basestring, so you can do:

Okay: if isinstance(obj, basestring): Okay: if type(a1) is type(b1):

Up

## compound_statements

compound_statements(logical_line)

Compound statements (on the same line) are generally discouraged.

While sometimes it's okay to put an if/for/while with a small body on the same line, never do this for multi-clause statements. Also avoid folding such long lines!

Always use a def statement instead of an assignment statement that binds a lambda expression directly to a name.

Okay: if foo == 'blah':\n do_blah_thing() Okay: do_one() Okay: do_two() Okay: do_three()

E701: if foo == 'blah': do_blah_thing() E701: for x in lst: total += x E701: while t < 10: t = delay() E701: if foo == 'blah': do_blah_thing() E701: else: do_non_blah_thing() E701: try: something() E701: finally: cleanup() E701: if foo == 'blah': one(); two(); three() E702: do_one(); do_two(); do_three() E703: do_four(); # useless semicolon E704: def f(x): return 2*x E731: f = lambda x: 2*x

Up

## continued_indentation

continued_indentation(logical_line, tokens, indent_level, hang_closing, indent_char, indent_size, noqa, verbose)

Continuation lines indentation.

Continuation lines should align wrapped elements either vertically using Python's implicit line joining inside parentheses, brackets and braces, or using a hanging indent.

When using a hanging indent these considerations should be applied: - there should be no arguments on the first line, and - further indentation should be used to clearly distinguish itself as a continuation line.

Okay: a = (\n) E123: a = (\n )

Okay: a = (\n 42) E121: a = (\n 42) E122: a = (\n42) E123: a = (\n 42\n ) E124: a = (24,\n 42\n) E125: if (\n b):\n pass E126: a = (\n 42) E127: a = (24,\n 42) E128: a = (24,\n 42) E129: if (a or\n b):\n pass E131: a = (\n 42\n 24)

Up

## expand_indent

expand_indent(line)

Return the amount of indentation.

Tabs are expanded to the next multiple of 8.

>>> expand_indent(' ') 4 >>> expand_indent('\t') 8 >>> expand_indent(' \t') 8 >>> expand_indent(' \t') 16

Up

## explicit_line_join

explicit_line_join(logical_line, tokens)

Avoid explicit line join between brackets.

The preferred way of wrapping long lines is by using Python's implied line continuation inside parentheses, brackets and braces. Long lines can be broken over multiple lines by wrapping expressions in parentheses. These should be used in preference to using a backslash for line continuation.

E502: aaa = [123, \\n 123] E502: aaa = ("bbb " \\n "ccc")

Okay: aaa = [123,\n 123] Okay: aaa = ("bbb "\n "ccc") Okay: aaa = "bbb " \\n "ccc" Okay: aaa = 123 # \\

Up

## extraneous_whitespace

extraneous_whitespace(logical_line)

Avoid extraneous whitespace.

Avoid extraneous whitespace in these situations: - Immediately inside parentheses, brackets or braces. - Immediately before a comma, semicolon, or colon.

Okay: spam(ham[1], {eggs: 2}) E201: spam( ham[1], {eggs: 2}) E201: spam(ham[ 1], {eggs: 2}) E201: spam(ham[1], { eggs: 2}) E202: spam(ham[1], {eggs: 2} ) E202: spam(ham[1 ], {eggs: 2}) E202: spam(ham[1], {eggs: 2 })

E203: if x == 4: print x, y; x, y = y , x E203: if x == 4: print x, y ; x, y = y, x E203: if x == 4 : print x, y; x, y = y, x

Up

## indentation

indentation(logical_line, previous_logical, indent_char, indent_level, previous_indent_level, indent_size)

Use indent_size (PEP8 says 4) spaces per indentation level.

For really old code that you don't want to mess up, you can continue to use 8-space tabs.

Okay: a = 1 Okay: if a == 0:\n a = 1 E111: a = 1 E114: # a = 1

Okay: for item in items:\n pass E112: for item in items:\npass E115: for item in items:\n# Hi\n pass

## maximum_doc_length

maximum_doc_length(logical_line, max_doc_length, noqa, tokens)

Limit all doc lines to a maximum of 72 characters.

For flowing long blocks of text (docstrings or comments), limiting the length to 72 characters is recommended.

Reports warning W505

Up

## maximum_line_length

maximum_line_length(physical_line, max_line_length, multiline, line_number, noqa)

Limit all lines to a maximum of 79 characters.

There are still many devices around that are limited to 80 character lines; plus, limiting windows to 80 characters makes it possible to have several windows side-by-side. The default wrapping on such devices looks ugly. Therefore, please limit all lines to a maximum of 79 characters. For flowing long blocks of text (docstrings or comments), limiting the length to 72 characters is recommended.

Reports error E501.

Up

## missing_whitespace

missing_whitespace(logical_line)

Each comma, semicolon or colon should be followed by whitespace.

Okay: [a, b] Okay: (3,) Okay: a[1:4] Okay: a[:4] Okay: a[1:] Okay: a[1:4:2] E231: ['a','b'] E231: foo(bar,baz) E231: [{'a':'b'}]

Up

## missing_whitespace_after_import_keyword

missing_whitespace_after_import_keyword(logical_line)

Okay: from foo import (bar, baz) E275: from foo import(bar, baz) E275: from importable.module import(bar, baz)

Up

## missing_whitespace_around_operator

missing_whitespace_around_operator(logical_line, tokens)

Surround operators with a single space on either side.

- Always surround these binary operators with a single space on either side: assignment (=), augmented assignment (+=, -= etc.), comparisons (==, <, >, !=, <=, >=, in, not in, is, is not), Booleans (and, or, not).

- If operators with different priorities are used, consider adding whitespace around the operators with the lowest priorities.

Okay: i = i + 1 Okay: submitted += 1 Okay: x = x * 2 - 1 Okay: hypot2 = x * x + y * y Okay: c = (a + b) * (a - b) Okay: foo(bar, key='word', *args, **kwargs) Okay: alpha[:-i]

Up

## module_imports_on_top_of_file

module_imports_on_top_of_file(logical_line, indent_level, checker_state, noqa)

Place imports at the top of the file.

Always put imports at the top of the file, just after any module comments and docstrings, and before module globals and constants.

Okay: import os Okay: # this is a comment\nimport os Okay: '''this is a module docstring'''\nimport os Okay: r'''this is a module docstring'''\nimport os Okay: try:\n\timport x\nexcept ImportError:\n\tpass\nelse:\n\tpass\nimport y Okay: try:\n\timport x\nexcept ImportError:\n\tpass\nfinally:\n\tpass\nimport y E402: a=1\nimport os E402: 'One string'\n"Two string"\nimport os E402: a=1\nfrom sys import x

## python_3000_backticks

python_3000_backticks(logical_line)

Use repr() instead of backticks in Python 3.

Okay: val = repr(1 + 2) W604: val = `1 + 2`

Up

## python_3000_has_key

python_3000_has_key(logical_line, noqa)

The {}.has_key() method is removed in Python 3: use the 'in' operator.

Okay: if "alph" in d:\n print d["alph"] W601: assert d.has_key('alph')

Up

## python_3000_invalid_escape_sequence

python_3000_invalid_escape_sequence(logical_line, tokens, noqa)

Invalid escape sequences are deprecated in Python 3.6.

Okay: regex = r'\.png$' W605: regex = '\.png$'

Up

## python_3000_not_equal

python_3000_not_equal(logical_line)

New code should always use != instead of <>.

The older syntax is removed in Python 3.

Okay: if a != 'no': W603: if a <> 'no':

Up

## python_3000_raise_comma

python_3000_raise_comma(logical_line)

When raising an exception, use "raise ValueError('message')".

The older form is removed in Python 3.

Okay: raise DummyError("Message") W602: raise DummyError, "Message"

Up

## read_config

read_config(options, args, arglist, parser)

Read and parse configurations.

If a config file is specified on the command line with the "--config" option, then only it is used for configuration.

Otherwise, the user configuration (~/.config/pycodestyle) and any local configurations in the current directory or above will be merged together (in that order) using the read method of ConfigParser.

## tabs_obsolete

tabs_obsolete(physical_line)

On new projects, spaces-only are strongly recommended over tabs.

Okay: if True:\n return W191: if True:\n\treturn

Up

## tabs_or_spaces

tabs_or_spaces(physical_line, indent_char)

Never mix tabs and spaces.

The most popular way of indenting Python is with spaces only. The second-most popular way is with tabs only. Code indented with a mixture of tabs and spaces should be converted to using spaces exclusively. When invoking the Python command line interpreter with the -t option, it issues warnings about code that illegally mixes tabs and spaces. When using -tt these warnings become errors. These options are highly recommended!

Okay: if a == 0:\n a = 1\n b = 1 E101: if a == 0:\n a = 1\n\tb = 1

Up

## trailing_blank_lines

trailing_blank_lines(physical_line, lines, line_number, total_lines)

Trailing blank lines are superfluous.

Okay: spam(1) W391: spam(1)\n

However the last line should end with a new line (warning W292).

Up

## trailing_whitespace

trailing_whitespace(physical_line)

Trailing whitespace is superfluous.

The warning returned varies on whether the line itself is blank, for easier filtering for those who want to indent their blank lines.

Okay: spam(1)\n# W291: spam(1) \n# W293: class Foo(object):\n \n bang = 12

Up

## update_counts

update_counts(s, counts)

Adds one to the counts of each appearance of characters in s, for characters in counts

Up

## whitespace_around_comma

whitespace_around_comma(logical_line)

Avoid extraneous whitespace after a comma or a colon.

Note: these checks are disabled by default

Okay: a = (1, 2) E241: a = (1, 2) E242: a = (1,\t2)

Up

## whitespace_around_keywords

whitespace_around_keywords(logical_line)

Avoid extraneous whitespace around keywords.

Okay: True and False E271: True and False E272: True and False E273: True and\tFalse E274: True\tand False

Up

## whitespace_around_named_parameter_equals

whitespace_around_named_parameter_equals(logical_line, tokens)

Don't use spaces around the '=' sign in function arguments.

Don't use spaces around the '=' sign when used to indicate a keyword argument or a default parameter value, except when using a type annotation.

Okay: def complex(real, imag=0.0): Okay: return magic(r=real, i=imag) Okay: boolean(a == b) Okay: boolean(a != b) Okay: boolean(a <= b) Okay: boolean(a >= b) Okay: def foo(arg: int = 42): Okay: async def foo(arg: int = 42):

E251: def complex(real, imag = 0.0): E251: return magic(r = real, i = imag) E252: def complex(real, image: float=0.0):

Up

## whitespace_before_comment

whitespace_before_comment(logical_line, tokens)

Separate inline comments by at least two spaces.

An inline comment is a comment on the same line as a statement. Inline comments should be separated by at least two spaces from the statement. They should start with a # and a single space.

Each line of a block comment starts with a # and a single space (unless it is indented text inside the comment).

Okay: x = x + 1 # Increment x Okay: x = x + 1 # Increment x Okay: # Block comment E261: x = x + 1 # Increment x E262: x = x + 1 #Increment x E262: x = x + 1 # Increment x E265: #Block comment E266: ### Block comment
