    Pyflakes¶

    pyflakes is a static analysis tool that checks Python code for a variety of errors or problems in Python source code.

    Supported File Types¶

    The following are supported by this tool:

    • Python: *.py

    Installation¶

    pyflakes can be installed on most systems by running:

    $ pip install pyflakes
    

    It may also be available in your system’s package manager.

    Configuration¶

    Pyflakes Location¶

    If the pyflakes command is in a non-standard location, and can’t be found in Review Bot’s PATH environment variable, then you’ll need to specify the path in the Review Bot worker config file:

    exe_paths = {
        'pyflakes': '/path/to/pyflakes',
    }
    

    You will need to restart the Review Bot worker after making this change.

    Enabling pyflakes in Review Board¶

    You’ll need to add a Review Bot configuration in Review Board (see Tool Configurations).

    There are no configuration options available for this tool.

    Keep up with the latest Review Board releases, security updates, and helpful information.
