Check the PEP-8 naming conventions.

This module provides a plugin for flake8, the Python code checker.

(It replaces the plugin flint-naming for the flint checker.)

This github repository is a fork! Follow this link to reach the original one: https://github.com/PyCQA/pep8-naming

You can install, upgrade, uninstall pep8-naming with these commands:

$ pip install pep8-naming
$ pip install --upgrade pep8-naming
$ pip uninstall pep8-naming

When both flake8 and pep8-naming are installed, the plugin is available in flake8:

$ flake8 --version
2.0 (pep8: 1.4.3, pyflakes: 0.6.1, naming: 0.2)

By default the plugin is enabled.

These error codes are emitted:

• Replace lowercase by a strict lower camel case for function and argument
• Allow any method name with double underscore at the beginning and at the end of its name, only if the name contains lower case without underscore
• Replace CapWords for class by a strict upper camel case
• Replace constant name by only uppercase and do not allow two consecutive underscore in the name
• Class, constant, arg, variable, and method can only start with one and only one underscore or without any

• Fix bug where ignored names were not properly split into a list.

• Fix bug trying to call split on a list.

• Fix optparse exception resulting from trying to register an option twice.

• Relaxed N806 checking for use with namedtuples
• Add --ignore-names which allows the user to specify a list of names to ignore. By default this includes setUp, tearDown, setUpClass, and tearDownClass.

• Do not require setuptools in setup.py. It works around an issue with pip and Python 3.
• __new__ is now considered as classmethod implicitly
• Run unit tests on travis-ci.org for python2.6, 2.7, 3.2, and 3.3
• Add unit tests and support running them with setup.py
• Support Python 3.4

• Do not require flake8

• Rename project flint-naming to pep8-naming
• Fix a crash when function argument is a tuple of tuples

• First release
