Pylint: overriding max-line-length in individual file
Is it possible to change max-line-length
settings for one file out of a project (while performing all other checks defined in rc file on it)?
Ideally, it should behave like inline pylint: disable=x
comments.
I've tried putting this line at the module level:
# pylint: max-line-length=240
PyLint failed to recognize it:
my_file.py:15: [E0011(unrecognized-inline-option), ] Unrecognized file option 'max-line-length
Edit: I know I can disable line-too-long
check entirely, but to be honest I'd like to avoid doing so, just in case anyone would try to extend this module and add lines even longer than they are now.
You can create .pylintrc
file in your python script to overwrite pylint settings and put inside
[FORMAT]
max-line-length=240
edit 240 based on your choice.
According to the doc, I think you cannot modify the pylint config in line.
but you can disable the warning for only one or few line(s) with # pylint: disable=line-too-long
:
# disable for only one line
ridiculously_long_variable_name = "this is not a ridiculously long and useless python line" # pylint: disable=line-too-long
# disable for few (or more) lines
# pylint: disable=line-too-long
ridiculously_long_variable_name = "this is not a ridiculously long and useless python line"
# pylint: enable=line-too-long
pylint --max-line-length=240
works for me.
You can pass the additional as below:
C:\Python27\Scripts\pylint.exe --max-line-length=240 <PATH TO FILE>
