py-pylint: updated to 2.17.6

v2.17.6

Other Bug Fixes

When parsing comma-separated lists of regular expressions in the config,
ignore commas that are inside braces since those indicate quantifiers, not
delineation between expressions.

sys.argv is now always correctly considered as impossible to infer
(instead of using the actual values given to pylint).

Don't show class fields more than once in Pyreverse diagrams.

Don't show arrows more than once in Pyreverse diagrams.

Don't show duplicate type annotations in Pyreverse diagrams.

Don't add Optional to | annotations with None in Pyreverse diagrams.

py-pylint: updadted to 2.17.0

2.17.0

2.17 is a small release that is the first to support python 3.11 officially
with the addition of TryStar nodes.

There's still two new default checks: bad-chained-comparison and
implicit-flag-alias, one of them already fixed a previously undetected
bug in sentry.

Thanks to the community effort our documentation is almost complete,
and almost all messages should have a proper documentation now.
A big thank you to everyone who participated !

The next release is going to be 3.0.0, bring breaking changes and
enact long announced deprecations. There's going to be frequent beta
releases, before the official releases, everyone is welcome to try the betas
so we find problems before the actual release.

Fix a false positive for used-before-assignment for imports guarded by typing.TYPE_CHECKING later used in variable annotations.

Other Bug Fixes

Pylint will now filter duplicates given to it before linting. The output should be the same whether a file is given/discovered multiple times or not.

Other Bug Fixes

Remove __index__ dunder method call from unnecessary-dunder-call check.

Fixed a multi-processing crash that prevents using any more than 1 thread on MacOS.

The returned module objects and errors that were cached by the linter plugin loader cannot be reliably pickled. This means that dill would throw an error when attempting to serialise the linter object for multi-processing use.

py-pylint: updated to 2.15.2

What's new in Pylint 2.15.2?

Fixed a case where custom plugins specified by command line could silently fail.
Specifically, if a plugin relies on the init-hook option changing sys.path before it can be imported, this will now emit a bad-plugin-value message. Before this change, it would silently fail to register the plugin for use, but would load any configuration, which could have unintended effects.
Fix used-before-assignment for functions/classes defined in type checking guard.
Update modified_iterating checker to fix a crash with for loops on empty list.
The docparams extension now considers typing in Numpy style docstrings as "documentation" for the missing-param-doc message.
Fix false positive for unused-variable and unused-import when a name is only used in a string literal type annotation.
Fix false positive for too-many-function-args when a function call is assigned to a class attribute inside the class where the function is defined.
Fix used-before-assignment for functions/classes defined in type checking guard.
Fix ignored files being linted when passed on stdin.

py-pylint: updated to 2.15.0

In pylint 2.15.0, we added a new check missing-timeout to warn of default timeout values that could cause a program to be hanging indefinitely.

We improved pylint's handling of namespace packages. More packages should be linted without resorting to using the --recursive=y option.

We still welcome any community effort to help review, integrate, and add good/bad examples to the doc for 5953. This should be doable without any pylint or astroid knowledge, so this is the perfect entrypoint if you want to contribute to pylint or open source without any experience with our code!

Internally, we changed the way we generate the release notes, thanks to DudeNr33. There will be no more conflict resolution to do in the changelog, and every contributor rejoice.

ignoring the path/to/dir directory.

Fixed regression that didn't allow quoted init-hooks in option files.

Fixed a false positive for modified-iterating-dict when updating an existing key.

Fixed an issue where many-core Windows machines (>~60 logical processors) would hang when
using the default jobs count.

Fixed an issue with the recognition of setup.cfg files.
Only .cfg files that are exactly named setup.cfg require section names that
start with pylint..

Don't report import-private-name for relative imports.

py-pylint: updated to 2.14.2

What's New in Pylint 2.14.2?

Fixed a false positive for unused-variable when a function returns an argparse.Namespace object.

Avoided raising an identical undefined-loop-variable message twice on the same line.

Don't crash if lint.run._query_cpu() is run within a Kubernetes Pod, that has only a fraction of a cpu core assigned. Just go with one process then.

Fixed a false positive in consider-using-f-string if the left side of a % is not a string.

Fixed a false positive in unnecessary-list-index-lookup and unnecessary-dict-index-lookup when the subscript is updated in the body of a nested loop.

Fixed an issue with multi-line init-hook options which did not record the line endings.

Fixed a false positive for used-before-assignment when a try block returns but an except handler defines a name via type annotation.

--errors-only no longer enables previously disabled messages. It was acting as "emit all and only error messages" without being clearly documented that way.


What's New in Pylint 2.14.1?

Avoid reporting unnecessary-dict-index-lookup or unnecessary-list-index-lookup when the index lookup is part of a destructuring assignment.

Fixed parsing of unrelated options in tox.ini.

Fixed a crash when linting __new__() methods that return a call expression.

Don't crash if we can't find the user's home directory.

Fixed false positives for unused-import when aliasing typing e.g. as t and guarding imports under t.TYPE_CHECKING.

Fixed a false positive regression in 2.13 for used-before-assignment where it is safe to rely on a name defined only in an except block because the else block returned.

Fixed the use of abbreviations for some special options on the command line.

Fix a crash in the optional pylint.extensions.private_import extension.

bad-option-value (E0012) is now a warning unknown-option-value (W0012). Deleted messages that do not exist anymore in pylint now raise useless-option-value (R0022) instead of bad-option-value. This allows to distinguish between genuine typos and configuration that could be cleaned up. Existing message disables for bad-option-value will still work on both new messages.


What's New in Pylint 2.14.0?

The refactoring checker now also raises 'consider-using-generator' messages for max(), min() and sum().

We have improved our recognition of inline disable and enable comments. It is now possible to disable bad-option-value inline (as long as you disable it before the bad option value is raised, i.e. disable=bad-option-value,bad-message not disable=bad-message,bad-option-value ) as well as certain other previously unsupported messages.

Fixed a crash in the unused-private-member checker involving chained private attributes.

Added new checker comparison-of-constants.

pylint.pyreverse.ASTWalker has been removed, as it was only used internally by a single child class.

pyreverse: Resolving and displaying implemented interfaces that are defined by the __implements__ attribute has been deprecated and will be removed in 3.0.

Fix syntax for return type annotations in MermaidJS diagrams produced with pyreverse.

Fix type annotations of class and instance attributes using the alternative union syntax in pyreverse diagrams.

Fix unexpected-special-method-signature false positive for __init_subclass__ methods with one or more arguments.

Started ignoring underscore as a local variable for too-many-locals.

Improved wording of the message of deprecated-module

Pylint now requires Python 3.7.2 or newer to run.

BaseChecker classes now require the linter argument to be passed.

Fix a failure to respect inline disables for fixme occurring on the last line of a module when pylint is launched with --enable=fixme.

Update invalid-slots-object message to show bad object rather than its inferred value.

The main checker name is now main instead of master. The configuration does not need to be updated as sections' name are optional.

Don't report useless-super-delegation for the __hash__ method in classes that also override the __eq__ method.

Added new checker typevar-name-mismatch: TypeVar must be assigned to a variable with the same name as its name argument.

Pylint can now be installed with an extra-require called spelling (pip install pylint[spelling]). This will add pyenchant to pylint's dependencies. You will still need to install the requirements for pyenchant (the enchant library and any dictionaries) yourself. You will also need to set the spelling-dict option.

Removed the assign-to-new-keyword message as there are no new keywords in the supported Python versions any longer.

Fixed a crash in the not-an-iterable checker involving multiple starred expressions inside a call.

Fixed a crash in the docparams extension involving raising the result of a function.

Fixed failure to enable deprecated-module after a disable=all by making ImportsChecker solely responsible for emitting deprecated-module instead of sharing responsibility with StdlibChecker. (This could have led to double messages.)

The no-init (W0232) warning has been removed. It's ok to not have an __init__ in a class.

The config attribute of BaseChecker has been deprecated. You can use checker.linter.config to access the global configuration object instead of a checker-specific object.

The level attribute of BaseChecker has been deprecated: everything is now displayed in --help, all the time.

The options_providers attribute of ArgumentsManager has been deprecated.

The option_groups attribute of PyLinter has been deprecated.

All Interface classes in pylint.interfaces have been deprecated. You can subclass the respective normal classes to get the same behaviour. The __implements__ functionality was based on a rejected PEP from 2001: https://peps.python.org/pep-0245/

The set_option method of BaseChecker has been deprecated. You can use checker.linter.set_option to set an option on the global configuration object instead of a checker-specific object.

implicit-str-concat will now be raised on calls like open("myfile.txt" "a+b") too.

The config attribute of PyLinter is now of the argparse.Namespace type instead of optparse.Values.

MapReduceMixin has been deprecated. BaseChecker now implements get_map_data and reduce_map_data. If a checker actually needs to reduce data it should define get_map_data as returning something different than None and let its reduce_map_data handle a list of the types returned by get_map_data. An example can be seen by looking at pylint/checkers/similar.py.

UnsupportedAction has been deprecated.

OptionsManagerMixIn has been deprecated.

OptionParser has been deprecated.

Option has been deprecated.

OptionsProviderMixIn has been deprecated.

ConfigurationMixIn has been deprecated.

get_global_config has been deprecated. You can now access all global options from checker.linter.config.

OptionsManagerMixIn has been replaced with ArgumentsManager. ArgumentsManager is considered private API and most methods that were public on OptionsManagerMixIn have now been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

OptionsProviderMixIn has been replaced with ArgumentsProvider. ArgumentsProvider is considered private API and most methods that were public on OptionsProviderMixIn have now been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

interfaces.implements has been deprecated and will be removed in 3.0. Please use standard inheritance patterns instead of __implements__.

invalid-enum-extension: Used when a class tries to extend an inherited Enum class.

Added the unrecognized-option message. Raised if we encounter any unrecognized options.

Added new checker typevar-double-variance: The "covariant" and "contravariant" keyword arguments cannot both be set to "True" in a TypeVar.

Re-enable checker bad-docstring-quotes for Python <= 3.7.

Removed the broken generate-man option.

Fix false negative for bad-string-format-type if the value to be formatted is passed in as a variable holding a constant.

Add new check unnecessary-dunder-call for unnecessary dunder method calls.

The cache-max-size-none checker has been renamed to method-cache-max-size-none.

The method-cache-max-size-none checker will now also check functools.cache.

unnecessary-lambda-assignment: Lambda expression assigned to a variable. Define a function using the "def" keyword instead. unnecessary-direct-lambda-call: Lambda expression called directly. Execute the expression inline instead.

potential-index-error: Emitted when the index of a list or tuple exceeds its length. This checker is currently quite conservative to avoid false positives. We welcome suggestions for improvements.

Added optional extension redefined-loop-name to emit messages when a loop variable is redefined in the loop body.

Changed message type from redefined-outer-name to redefined-loop-name (optional extension) for redefinitions of outer loop variables by inner loops.

The ignore-mixin-members option has been deprecated. You should now use the new ignored-checks-for-mixins option.

bad-option-value will be emitted whenever a configuration value or command line invocation includes an unknown message.

Avoid reporting superfluous-parens on expressions using the is not operator.

Added the super-without-brackets checker, raised when a super call is missing its brackets.

Added the generate-toml-config option.

Added new checker unnecessary-list-index-lookup for indexing into a list while iterating over enumerate().

Fix falsely issuing useless-suppression on the wrong-import-position checker.

Fixed false positive no-member for Enums with self-defined members.

Fix false negative for no-member when attempting to assign an instance attribute to itself without any prior assignment.

The concept of checker priority has been removed.

Add a new command line option --minimal-messages-config for pytest, which disables all irrelevant messages when running the functional tests.

duplicate-argument-name now only raises once for each set of duplicated arguments.

Fix bug where specifically enabling just await-outside-async was not possible.

The set_config_directly decorator has been removed.

Added new message called duplicate-value which identifies duplicate values inside sets.

Pylint now expands the user path (i.e. ~ to home/yusef/) and expands environment variables (i.e. home/$USER/$project to home/yusef/pylint for USER=yusef and project=pylint) for pyreverse's output-directory, import-graph, ext-import-graph, int-import-graph options, and the spell checker's spelling-private-dict-file option.

Created NoSelfUseChecker extension and moved the no-self-use check. You now need to explicitly enable this check using load-plugins=pylint.extensions.no_self_use.

Fix saving of persistent data files in environments where the user's cache directory and the linted file are on a different drive.

Don't emit unsubscriptable-object for string annotations. Pylint doesn't check if class is only generic in type stubs only.

Fix pyreverse crash RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration

Fix bug where it writes a plain text error message to stdout, invalidating output formats.

is_class_subscriptable_pep585_with_postponed_evaluation_enabled has been deprecated. Use is_postponed_evaluation_enabled(node) and is_node_in_type_annotation_context(node) instead.

Update ranges for using-constant-test and missing-parentheses-for-call-in-test error messages.

Don't emit no-member inside type annotations with from __future__ import annotations.

py-pylint: updated to 2.13.6

What's New in Pylint 2.13.6?
============================
* Fix a crash in the ``unsupported-membership-test`` checker when assigning
  multiple constants to class attributes including ``__iter__`` via unpacking.

* Asterisks are no longer required in Sphinx and Google style parameter documentation
  for ``missing-param-doc`` and are parsed correctly.

* Fixed a false positive for ``unused-variable`` when a builtin specified in
  ``--additional-builtins`` is given a type annotation.

* Fixed an ``AstroidError`` in 2.13.0 raised by the ``duplicate-code`` checker with
  ``ignore-imports`` or ``ignore-signatures`` enabled.


What's New in Pylint 2.13.5?
============================
* Fix false positive regression in 2.13.0 for ``used-before-assignment`` for
  homonyms between variable assignments in try/except blocks and variables in
  subscripts in comprehensions.

* ``lru-cache-decorating-method`` has been renamed to ``cache-max-size-none`` and
  will only be emitted when ``maxsize`` is ``None``.

* Fix false positive for ``unused-import`` when disabling both ``used-before-assignment`` and ``undefined-variable``.

* Narrow the scope of the ``unnecessary-ellipsis`` checker to:
  * functions & classes which contain both a docstring and an ellipsis.
  * A body which contains an ellipsis ``nodes.Expr`` node & at least one other statement.

* Fix false positive for ``used-before-assignment`` for assignments taking place via
  nonlocal declarations after an earlier type annotation.

* Fix crash for ``redefined-slots-in-subclass`` when the type of the slot is not a const or a string.

* Only raise ``not-callable`` when all the inferred values of a property are not callable.

* Fix a false negative for ``subclassed-final-class`` when a set of other messages were disabled.


What's New in Pylint 2.13.4?
============================
* Fix false positive regression in 2.13.0 for ``used-before-assignment`` for
  homonyms between variable assignments in try/except blocks and variables in
  a comprehension's filter.

* Include ``testing_pylintrc`` in source and wheel distributions.

* Fix crash in ``super-init-not-called`` checker when using ``ctypes.Union``.

* Fix crash for ``unneccessary-ellipsis`` checker when an ellipsis is used inside of a container or a lambda expression.

============================
* Fix false positive for ``unnecessary-ellipsis`` when using an ellipsis as a default argument.

* Fix crash involving unbalanced tuple unpacking.

* Fix false positive for 'nonexistent-operator' when repeated '-' are
  separated (e.g. by parens).


What's New in Pylint 2.13.2?
============================
* Fix crash when subclassing a ``namedtuple``.

* Fix false positive for ``superfluous-parens`` for patterns like
  "return (a or b) in iterable".

* Fix a false negative regression in 2.13.0 where ``protected-access`` was not
  raised on functions.

* Better error messages in case of crash if pylint can't write the issue template.


What's New in Pylint 2.13.1?
============================
* Fix a regression in 2.13.0 where ``used-before-assignment`` was emitted for
  the usage of a nonlocal in a try block.

* Avoid emitting ``raising-bad-type`` when there is inference ambiguity on
  the variable being raised.

* Loosen TypeVar default name pattern a bit to allow names with multiple uppercase
  characters. E.g. ``HVACModeT`` or ``IPAddressT``.

* Fixed false positive for ``unused-argument`` when a ``nonlocal`` name is used
  in a nested function that is returned without being called by its parent.

* Fix program crash for ``modified_iterating-list/set/dict`` when the list/dict/set
  being iterated through is a function call.

* Don't emit ``broken-noreturn`` and ``broken-collections-callable`` errors
  inside ``if TYPE_CHECKING`` blocks.


What's New in Pylint 2.13.0?
============================
* Add missing dunder methods to ``unexpected-special-method-signature`` check.

* No longer emit ``no-member`` in for loops that reference ``self`` if the binary operation that
  started the for loop uses a ``self`` that is encapsulated in tuples or lists.

* Output better error message if unsupported file formats are used with ``pyreverse``.

* Fix pyreverse diagrams type hinting for classmethods and staticmethods.

* Fix pyreverse diagrams type hinting for methods returning None.

* Fix matching ``--notes`` options that end in a non-word character.

* Updated the position of messages for class and function defintions to no longer cover
  the complete definition. Only the ``def`` or ``class`` + the name of the class/function
  are covered.

* ``using-f-string-in-unsupported-version`` and ``using-final-decorator-in-unsupported-version`` msgids
    were renamed from ``W1601`` and ``W1602`` to ``W2601`` and ``W2602``. Disabling using these msgids will break.
    This is done in order to restore consistency with the already existing msgids for ``apply-builtin`` and
    ``basestring-builtin`` from the now deleted python 3K+ checker. There is now a check that we're not using
    existing msgids or symbols from deleted checkers.

* The line numbering for messages related to function arguments is now more accurate. This can
  require some message disables to be relocated to updated positions.

* Add ``--recursive`` option to allow recursive discovery of all modules and packages in subtree. Running pylint with
  ``--recursive=y`` option will check all discovered ``.py`` files and packages found inside subtree of directory provided
  as parameter to pylint.

* Add ``modified-iterating-list``, ``modified-iterating-dict`` and ``modified-iterating-set``,
  emitted when items are added to or removed from respectively a list, dictionary or
  set being iterated through.

* Fix false-negative for ``assignment-from-none`` checker using list.sort() method.

* New extension ``import-private-name``: indicate imports of external private packages
  and objects (prefixed with ``_``). It can be loaded using ``load-plugins=pylint.extensions.private_import``.

* Fixed crash from ``arguments-differ`` and ``arguments-renamed`` when methods were
  defined outside the top level of a class.

* Removed the deprecated ``check_docs`` extension. You can use the ``docparams`` checker
  to get the checks previously included in ``check_docs``.

* Added a ``testutil`` extra require to the packaging, as ``gitpython`` should not be a dependency
  all the time but is still required to use the primer helper code in ``pylint.testutil``. You can
  install it with ``pip install pylint[testutil]``.

* Reinstated checks from the python3 checker that are still useful for python 3
  (``eq-without-hash``). This is now in the ``pylint.extensions.eq_without_hash`` optional
  extension.

* Fixed an issue where ``ungrouped-imports`` could not be disabled without raising
  ``useless-suppression``.

* Added several checkers to deal with unicode security issues
  (see `Trojan Sources <https://trojansource.codes/>`_ and
  `PEP 672 <https://peps.python.org/pep-0672/>`_ for details) that also
  concern the readability of the code. In detail the following checks were added:

  * ``bad-file-encoding`` checks that the file is encoded in UTF-8 as suggested by
    `PEP8 <https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/#source-file-encoding>`_.
    UTF-16 and UTF-32 are `not supported by Python <https://bugs.python.org/issue1503789>`_
    at the moment. If this ever changes
    ``invalid-unicode-codec`` checks that they aren't used, to allow for backwards
    compatibility.

  * ``bidirectional-unicode`` checks for bidirectional unicode characters that
    could make code execution different than what the user expects.

  * ``invalid-character-backspace``, ``invalid-character-carriage-return``,
    ``invalid-character-sub``, ``invalid-character-esc``,
    ``invalid-character-zero-width-space`` and ``invalid-character-nul``
    to check for possibly harmful unescaped characters.

* Use the ``tomli`` package instead of ``toml`` to parse ``.toml`` files.

* Fix false positive - Allow unpacking of ``self`` in a subclass of ``typing.NamedTuple``.

* Fixed false negative ``unpacking-non-sequence`` when value is an empty list.

* Better warning messages for useless else or elif when a function returns early.

* Fixed false positive ``consider-using-dict-comprehension`` when creating a dict
  using a list of tuples where key AND value vary depending on the same condition.

* Fixed false positive for ``global-variable-undefined`` when ``global`` is used with a class name

* Fixed false positive for ``unused-variable`` when a ``nonlocal`` name is assigned as part of a multi-name assignment.

* Fixed a crash in ``unspecified-encoding`` checker when providing ``None``
  to the ``mode`` argument of an ``open()`` call.

* Fixed a crash involving a ``NewType`` named with an f-string.

* Improved ``bad-open-mode`` message when providing ``None`` to the ``mode``
  argument of an ``open()`` call.

* Added ``lru-cache-decorating-method`` checker with checks for the use of ``functools.lru_cache``
  on class methods. This is unrecommended as it creates memory leaks by never letting the instance
  getting garbage collected.

* Fixed crash with recursion error for inference of class attributes that referenced
  the class itself.

* Fixed false positive for ``unused-argument`` when a method overridden in a subclass
  does nothing with the value of a keyword-only argument.

* The issue template for crashes is now created for crashes which were previously not covered
  by this mechanism.

* Rewrote checker for ``non-ascii-name``.
   It now ensures __all__ Python names are ASCII and also properly
   checks the names of imports (``non-ascii-module-import``) as
   well as file names (``non-ascii-file-name``) and emits their respective new warnings.

   Non ASCII characters could be homoglyphs (look alike characters) and hard to
   enter on a non specialized keyboard.
   See `Confusable Characters in PEP 672 <https://peps.python.org/pep-0672/#confusing-features>`_

* When run in parallel mode ``pylint`` now pickles the data passed to subprocesses with
  the ``dill`` package. The ``dill`` package has therefore been added as a dependency.

* An astroid issue where symlinks were not being taken into account
  was fixed

* Fix a crash in ``unused-private-member`` checker when analyzing code using
  ``type(self)`` in bound methods.

* Optimize parsing of long lines when ``missing-final-newline`` is enabled.

* Fix false positives for ``used-before-assignment`` from using named
  expressions in a ternary operator test and using that expression as
  a call argument.

* Fix false positive for ``undefined-variable`` when ``namedtuple`` class
  attributes are used as return annotations.

* Fix false negative for ``undefined-variable`` and related variable messages
  when the same undefined variable is used as a type annotation and is
  accessed multiple times, or is used as a default argument to a function.

* Pyreverse - add output in mermaidjs format

* Emit ``used-before-assignment`` instead of ``undefined-variable`` when attempting
  to access unused type annotations.

* Added confidence level ``CONTROL_FLOW`` for warnings relying on assumptions
  about control flow.

* ``used-before-assignment`` now considers that assignments in a try block
  may not have occurred when the except or finally blocks are executed.

* Fixed false negative for ``used-before-assignment`` when a conditional
  or context manager intervened before the try statement that suggested
  it might fail.

* Fixed false negative for ``used-before-assignment`` in finally blocks
  if an except handler did not define the assignment that might have failed
  in the try block.

* Fixed extremely long processing of long lines with comma's.

* Fixed crash on properties and inherited class methods when comparing them for
  equality against an empty dict.

* Fixed a false positive for ``assigning-non-slot`` when the slotted class
  defined ``__setattr__``.

* Fixed a false positive for ``invalid-class-object`` when the object
  being assigned to the ``__class__`` attribute is uninferable.

* Fixed false positive for ``used-before-assignment`` with self-referential type
  annotation in conditional statements within class methods.

* Add checker ``redefined-slots-in-subclass``: Emitted when a slot is redefined in a subclass.

* Fixed false positive for ``global-variable-not-assigned`` when the ``del`` statement is used

* By default, pylint does no longer take files starting with ``.#`` into account. Those are
  considered `emacs file locks`. See
  https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/File-Locks.html.
  This behavior can be reverted by redefining the ``ignore-patterns`` option.

* Fixed a false positive for ``used-before-assignment`` when a named expression
  appears as the first value in a container.

* ``used-before-assignment`` now assumes that assignments in except blocks
  may not have occurred and warns accordingly.

* When evaluating statements after an except block, ``used-before-assignment``
  assumes that assignments in the except blocks took place if the
  corresponding try block contained a return statement.

* Fixed a false negative for ``used-before-assignment`` when some but not all
  except handlers defined a name relied upon after an except block when the
  corresponding try block contained a return statement.

* When evaluating statements in the ``else`` clause of a loop, ``used-before-assignment``
  assumes that assignments in the except blocks took place if the
  except handlers constituted the only ways for the loop to finish without
  breaking early.

* ``used-before-assignment`` now checks names in try blocks.

* Fixed false positive with ``used-before-assignment`` for assignment expressions
  in lambda statements.

* Fixed a false positive (affecting unreleased development) for
  ``used-before-assignment`` involving homonyms between filtered comprehensions
  and assignments in except blocks.

* Fixed crash with slots assignments and annotated assignments.

* Fixed crash on list comprehensions that used ``type`` as inner variable name.

* Fixed crash in ``use-maxsplit-arg`` checker when providing the ``sep`` argument
  to ``str.split()`` by keyword.

* Fix false positive for ``unused-variable`` for a comprehension variable matching
  an outer scope type annotation.

* Fix false negative for ``undefined-variable`` for a variable used multiple times
  in a comprehension matching an unused outer scope type annotation.

* Some files in ``pylint.testutils`` were deprecated. In the future imports should be done from the
  ``pylint.testutils.functional`` namespace directly.

* Fixed false positives for ``no-value-for-parameter`` with variadic
  positional arguments.

* ``safe_infer`` no longer makes an inference when given two function
  definitions with differing numbers of arguments.

* Fix ``comparison-with-callable`` false positive for callables that raise, such
  as typing constants.

* Fixed a crash on ``__init__`` nodes when the attribute was previously uninferable due to a cache
  limit size. This limit can be hit when the inheritance pattern of a class (and therefore of the ``__init__`` attribute) is very large.

* Fix false positive for ``used-before-assignment`` from a class definition
  nested under a function subclassing a class defined outside the function.

* Fix ``unnecessary_dict_index_lookup`` false positive when deleting a dictionary's entry.

* Fix false positive for ``used-before-assignment`` when an except handler
  shares a name with a test in a filtered comprehension.

* Fix crash in ``unnecessary-dict-index-lookup`` checker if the output of
  ``items()`` is assigned to a 1-tuple.

* When invoking ``pylint``, ``epylint``, ``symilar`` or ``pyreverse`` by importing them in a python file
  you can now pass an ``argv`` keyword besides patching ``sys.argv``.

* The ``PyLinter`` class will now be initialized with a ``TextReporter``
  as its reporter if none is provided.

* Fix ``super-init-not-called`` when parent or ``self`` is a ``Protocol``

* Fix false positive ``not-callable`` with attributes that alias ``NamedTuple``

* Emit ``redefined-outer-name`` when a nested except handler shadows an outer one.

* Fix false positive ``super-init-not-called`` for classes that inherit their ``init`` from
  a parent.

* ``encoding`` can now be supplied as a positional argument to calls that open
  files without triggering ``unspecified-encoding``.

* Fatal errors now emit a score of 0.0 regardless of whether the linted module
  contained any statements

* ``fatal`` was added to the variables permitted in score evaluation expressions.

* The default score evaluation now uses a floor of 0.

* Fix false negative for ``consider-iterating-dictionary`` during membership checks encapsulated in iterables
  or ``not in`` checks

* Fixed crash on uninferable decorators on Python 3.6 and 3.7

* Add checker ``unnecessary-ellipsis``: Emitted when the ellipsis constant is used unnecessarily.

* Disable checker ``bad-docstring-quotes`` for Python <= 3.7, because in these versions the line
  numbers for decorated functions and classes are not reliable which interferes with the checker.

* Fixed incorrect classification of Numpy-style docstring as Google-style docstring for
  docstrings with property setter documentation.
  Docstring classification is now based on the highest amount of matched sections instead
  of the order in which the docstring styles were tried.

* Fixed detection of ``arguments-differ`` when superclass static
  methods lacked a ``@staticmethod`` decorator.

* ``TypingChecker``

  * Added new check ``broken-noreturn`` to detect broken uses of ``typing.NoReturn``
    if ``py-version`` is set to Python ``3.7.1`` or below.
    https://bugs.python.org/issue34921

  * Added new check ``broken-collections-callable`` to detect broken uses of ``collections.abc.Callable``
    if ``py-version`` is set to Python ``3.9.1`` or below.
    https://bugs.python.org/issue42965

* The ``testutils`` for unittests now accept ``end_lineno`` and ``end_column``. Tests
  without these will trigger a ``DeprecationWarning``.

* ``arguments-differ`` will no longer complain about method redefinitions with extra parameters
  that have default values.

* Fixed false positive ``unexpected-keyword-arg`` for decorators.

* Importing the deprecated stdlib module ``xml.etree.cElementTree`` now emits ``deprecated_module``.

* Disables for ``deprecated-module`` and similar warnings for stdlib features deprecated
  in newer versions of Python no longer raise ``useless-suppression`` when linting with
  older Python interpreters where those features are not yet deprecated.

* Importing the deprecated stdlib module ``distutils`` now emits ``deprecated_module`` on Python 3.10+.

* ``missing-raises-doc`` will now check the class hierarchy of the raised exceptions

  .. code-block:: python

    def my_function()
      """My function.

      Raises:
        Exception: if something fails
      """
      raise ValueError

* Allow disabling ``duplicate-code`` with a disable comment when running through
  pylint.

* Improve ``invalid-name`` check for ``TypeVar`` names.
  The accepted pattern can be customized with ``--typevar-rgx``.

* Added new checker ``typevar-name-missing-variance``. Emitted when a covariant
  or contravariant ``TypeVar`` does not end with  ``_co`` or ``_contra`` respectively or
  when a ``TypeVar`` is not either but has a suffix.

* Allow usage of mccabe 0.7.x release

* Fix ``unused-private-member`` false positive when accessing private methods through ``property``.

py-pylint: updated to 2.12.2

v2.12.2
Fixed a false positive for unused-import where everything was not analyzed properly inside typing guards.

Fixed a false-positive regression for used-before-assignment for
typed variables in the body of class methods that reference the same class

Specified that the ignore-paths option considers "" to represent a
windows directory delimiter instead of a regular expression escape
character.

Fixed a crash with the ignore-paths option when invoking the option
via the command line.

Fixed handling of Sphinx-style parameter docstrings with asterisks. These
should be escaped with by prepending a "".

Add endLine and endColumn keys to output of JSONReporter.

Fixed handling of Google-style parameter specifications where descriptions
are on the line following the parameter name. These were generating
false positives for missing-param-doc.

Fix false negative for consider-iterating-dictionary during membership checks encapsulated in iterables
or not in checks

unused-import now check all ancestors for typing guards


2.12.1
Require Python 3.6.2 to run pylint.


2.12.0
Upgrade astroid to 2.9.0

Add ability to add end_line and end_column to the --msg-template option.
With the standard TextReporter this will add the line and column number of the
end of a node to the output of Pylint. If these numbers are unknown, they are represented
by an empty string.

Introduced primer tests and a configuration tests framework. The helper classes available in
pylint/testutil/ are still unstable and might be modified in the near future.

Fix install graphiz message which isn't needed for puml output format.

MessageTest of the unittest testutil now requires the confidence attribute
to match the expected value. If none is provided it is set to UNDEFINED.

add_message of the unittest testutil now actually handles the col_offset parameter
and allows it to be checked against actual output in a test.

Fix a crash in the check_elif extensions where an undetected if in a comprehension
with an if statement within a f-string resulted in an out of range error. The checker no
longer relies on counting if statements anymore and uses known if statements locations instead.
It should not crash on badly parsed if statements anymore.

Fix simplify-boolean-expression when condition can be inferred as False.

Fix exception when pyreverse parses property function of a class.

The functional testutils now accept end_lineno and end_column. Expected
output files without these will trigger a DeprecationWarning. Expected output files
can be easily updated with the python tests/test_functional.py --update-functional-output command.

The functional testutils now correctly check the distinction betweeen HIGH and
UNDEFINED confidence. Expected output files without defiend confidence levels will now
trigger a DeprecationWarning. Expected output files can be easily updated with the
python tests/test_functional.py --update-functional-output command.

The functional test runner now supports the option min_pyver_end_position to control on which python
versions the end_lineno and end_column attributes should be checked. The default value is 3.8.

Fix accept-no-yields-doc and accept-no-return-doc not allowing missing yield or
return documentation when a docstring is partially correct

Add an optional extension consider-using-any-or-all : Emitted when a for loop only
produces a boolean and could be replaced by any or all using a generator. Also suggests
a suitable any or all statement.

Properly identify parameters with no documentation and add new message called missing-any-param-doc

Add checkers overridden-final-method & subclassed-final-class

Fixed protected-access for accessing of attributes and methods of inner classes

Added support for ModuleNotFoundError (import-error and no-name-in-module).
ModuleNotFoundError inherits from ImportError and was added in Python 3.6

undefined-variable now correctly flags variables which only receive a type annotations
and never get assigned a value

undefined-variable now correctly considers the line numbering and order of classes
used in metaclass declarations

used-before-assignment now correctly considers references to classes as type annotation
or default values in first-level methods

undefined-variable and unused-variable now correctly trigger for assignment expressions
in functions defaults

undefined-variable now correctly triggers for assignment expressions in if ... else statements
This includes a basic form of control flow inference for if ... else statements using
constant boolean values

Added the --enable-all-extensions command line option. It will load all available extensions
which can be listed by running --list-extensions

Fix bug with importing namespace packages with relative imports

Improve and flatten unused-wildcard-import message

In length checker, len-as-condition has been renamed as
use-implicit-booleaness-not-len in order to be consistent with
use-implicit-booleaness-not-comparison.

Created new UnsupportedVersionChecker checker class that includes checks for features
not supported by all versions indicated by a py-version.

Added using-f-string-in-unsupported-version checker. Issued when py-version
is set to a version that does not support f-strings (< 3.6)
Fix useless-super-delegation false positive when default keyword argument is a variable.

Properly emit duplicate-key when Enum members are duplicate dictionary keys

Use py-version setting for alternative union syntax check (PEP 604),
instead of the Python interpreter version.

Subclasses of dict are regarded as reversible by the bad-reversed-sequence checker
(Python 3.8 onwards).

Support configuring mixin class pattern via mixin-class-rgx

Added new checker use-implicit-booleaness-not-comparison: Emitted when
collection literal comparison is being used to check for emptiness.

mising-param-doc now correctly parses asterisks for variable length and
keyword parameters

mising-param-doc now correctly handles Numpy parameter documentation without
explicit typing

pylint no longer crashes when checking assignment expressions within if-statements

Update ``literal-comparison``` checker to ignore tuple literals

Normalize the input to the ignore-paths option to allow both Posix and
Windows paths

Fix double emitting of not-callable on inferrable properties

self-cls-assignment now also considers tuple assignment

Fix missing-function-docstring not being able to check __init__ and other
magic methods even if the no-docstring-rgx setting was set to do so

Added using-final-decorator-in-unsupported-version checker. Issued when py-version
is set to a version that does not support typing.final (< 3.8)

Added configuration option exclude-too-few-public-methods to allow excluding
classes from the min-public-methods checker.

The --jobs parameter now fallbacks to 1 if the host operating system does not
have functioning shared semaphore implementation.

Fix crash for unused-private-member when checking private members on __class__

Crashes when a list is encountered in a toml configuration do not happen anymore.

Moved misplaced-comparison-constant to its own extension comparison_placement.
This checker was opinionated and now no longer a default. It can be reactived by adding
pylint.extensions.comparison_placement to load-plugins in your config.

A new bad-configuration-section checker was added that will emit for misplaced option
in pylint's top level namespace for toml configuration. Top-level dictionaries or option defined
in the wrong section will still silently not be taken into account, which is tracked in a
follow-up issue.

Fix crash for protected-access on (outer) class traversal

Added new checker useless-with-lock to find incorrect usage of with statement and threading module locks.
Emitted when with threading.Lock(): is used instead of with lock_instance:.

Make yn validator case insensitive, to allow for True and False in config files.

Fix crash on open() calls when the mode argument is not a simple string.

Inheriting from a class that implements __class_getitem__ no longer raises inherit-non-class.

Pyreverse - Add the project root directory to sys.path

Don't emit consider-using-f-string if py-version is set to Python < 3.6.
f-strings were added in Python 3.6

Fix regression for unspecified-encoding with pathlib.Path.read_text()

Don't emit consider-using-f-string if the variables to be interpolated include a backslash

Fixed false positive for cell-var-from-loop when variable is used as the default
value for a keyword-only parameter.

Fix false-positive undefined-variable with Lambda, IfExp, and
assignment expression.

Fix false-positive useless-suppression for wrong-import-order

Fixed toml dependency issue

Fix false-positive useless-suppression for line-too-long

Fixed invalid-name not checking parameters of overwritten base object methods

Fixed crash in consider-using-f-string if format is not called

Fix crash with AssignAttr in if TYPE_CHECKING blocks.

Improve node information for invalid-name on function argument.

Prevent return type checkers being called on functions with ellipses as body

Add is_sys_guard and is_typing_guard helper functions from astroid
to pylint.checkers.utils.

Fix regression on ClassDef inference

Fix regression on Compare node inference

Fix false-positive isinstance-second-argument-not-valid-type with typing.Callable.

It is now recommended to do pylint development on Python 3.8 or higher. This
allows using the latest ast parser.

All standard jobs in the pylint CI now run on Python 3.8 by default. We still
support python 3.6 and 3.7 and run tests for those interpreters.

TypingChecker

Fix false-negative for deprecated-typing-alias and consider-using-alias
with typing.Type + typing.Callable.

  local scope and catches (reassigned) functions
* Fix false positives for invalid-all-format that are lists or tuples at runtime
* Fix ``no-self-use`` and ``docparams extension`` for async functions and methods.
* Add documentation for ``pyreverse`` and ``symilar``
* Non symbolic messages with the wrong capitalisation now correctly trigger ``use-symbolic-message-instead``

* ``setuptools_scm`` has been removed and replaced by ``tbump`` in order to not
  have hidden runtime dependencies to setuptools

  infer the name of the decorator when using ``open`` without ``with``.

* Added ``deprecated-decorator``: Emitted when deprecated decorator is used.

* Added ``ignore-paths`` behaviour. Defined regex patterns are matched against full file path.

* Fix false negative for ``consider-using-with`` if calls like ``open()`` were used outside of assignment expressions.

* The warning for ``arguments-differ`` now signals explicitly the difference it detected
  by naming the argument or arguments that changed and the type of change that occurred.

* Added ``--fail-on`` option to return non-zero exit codes regardless of ``--fail-under`` value.

* numversion tuple contains integers again to fix multiple pylint's plugins that relied on it

* Fix false-positive ``too-many-ancestors`` when inheriting from builtin classes,
  especially from the ``collections.abc`` module

* Stdlib deprecated modules check is moved to stdlib checker. New deprecated
  modules are added.

* Fix raising false-positive ``no-member`` on abstract properties

* Created new error message called ``arguments-renamed`` which identifies any changes at the parameter
  names of overridden functions.

* New checker ``consider-using-dict-items``. Emitted  when iterating over dictionary keys and then
  indexing the same dictionary with the key within loop body.

  Pattern Matching in Python 3.10

* New checker ``await-outside-async``. Emitted when await is used outside an async function.

* Clarify documentation for ``typing`` extension.

  consistency. As such they don't necessarily provide a performance benefit
  and are often times opinionated.

* New checker ``consider-using-tuple``. Emitted when an in-place defined
  list or set can be replaced by a tuple.

py-pylint: updated to 2.8.1

What's New in Pylint 2.8.1?
===========================
Release date: 2021-04-25

..
  Put new features and bugfixes here and also in 'doc/whatsnew/2.9.rst'

* Add numversion back (temporarily) in ``__pkginfo__`` because it broke Pylama and revert the unnecessary
  ``pylint.version`` breaking change.


What's New in Pylint 2.8.0?
===========================
Release date: 2021-04-24

* New refactoring message ``consider-using-with``. This message is emitted if resource-allocating functions or methods of the
  standard library (like ``open()`` or ``threading.Lock.acquire()``) that can be used as a context manager are called without
  a ``with`` block.

* Resolve false positives on unused variables in decorator functions

* Add new extension ``ConfusingConsecutiveElifChecker``. This optional checker emits a refactoring message (R5601 ``confusing-consecutive-elif``)
  if if/elif statements with different indentation levels follow directly one after the other.

* New option ``--output=<file>`` to output result to a file rather than printing to stdout.

* Use a prescriptive message for ``unidiomatic-typecheck``

* Apply ``const-naming-style`` to module constants annotated with
  ``typing.Final``

* The packaging is now done via setuptools exclusively. ``doc``, ``tests``, ``man``, ``elisp`` and ``Changelog`` are
  not packaged anymore - reducing the size of the package by 75%.

* Debian packaging is now  (officially) done in https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/pylint.

* The 'doc' extra-require has been removed.

* ``__pkginfo__`` now only contain ``__version__`` (also accessible with ``pylint.__version__``), other meta-information are still
  accessible with ``from importlib import metadata;metadata.metadata('pylint')``.

* COPYING has been renamed to LICENSE for standardization.

* Fix false-positive ``used-before-assignment`` in function returns.

* Updated ``astroid`` to 2.5.3

* Add ``consider-using-min-max-builtin`` check for if statement which could be replaced by Python builtin min or max

* Don't auto-enable postponed evaluation of type annotations with Python 3.10

* Update ``astroid`` to 2.5.4

* Add new extension ``TypingChecker``. This optional checker can detect the use of deprecated typing aliases
  and can suggest the use of the alternative union syntax where possible.
  (For example, 'typing.Dict' can be replaced by 'dict', and 'typing.Unions' by '|', etc.)
  Make sure to check the config options if you plan on using it!

* Reactivates old counts in report mode.

* During detection of ``inconsistent-return-statements`` consider that ``assert False`` is a return node.

* Run will not fail if score exactly equals ``config.fail_under``.

* Functions that never returns may declare ``NoReturn`` as type hints, so that
  ``inconsistent-return-statements`` is not emitted.

* Improved protected access checks to allow access inside class methods

* Fix issue with PEP 585 syntax and the use of ``collections.abc.Set``

* Fix issue that caused class variables annotated with ``typing.ClassVar`` to be
  identified as class constants. Now, class variables annotated with
  ``typing.Final`` are identified as such.

* Continuous integration with read the doc has been added.

* Don't show ``DuplicateBasesError`` for attribute access

* Fix crash when checking ``setup.cfg`` for pylint config when there are non-ascii characters in there

* Allow code flanked in backticks to be skipped by spellchecker

* Allow Python tool directives (for black, flake8, zimports, isort, mypy, bandit, pycharm) at beginning of comments to be skipped by spellchecker

* Fix issue that caused emacs pylint to fail when used with tramp

* Improve check for invalid PEP 585 syntax inside functions
  if postponed evaluation of type annotations is enabled

* Improve check for invalid PEP 585 syntax as default function arguments

py-pylint: updated to 2.7.3

What's New in Pylint 2.7.3?
* Introduce logic for checking deprecated attributes in DeprecationMixin.
* Reduce usage of blacklist/whitelist terminology. Notably, ``extension-pkg-allow-list`` is an
  alternative to ``extension-pkg-whitelist`` and the message ``blacklisted-name`` is now emitted as
  ``disallowed-name``. The previous names are accepted to maintain backward compatibility.
* Move deprecated checker to ``DeprecatedMixin``
* Bump ``astroid`` version to ``2.5.2``
* Fix false positive for ``method-hidden`` when using private attribute and method
* ``use-symbolic-message-instead`` now also works on legacy messages like ``C0111`` (``missing-docstring``).

* Fix a false-positive emission of `no-self-use` and `unused-argument` for methods
  of generic structural types (`Protocol[T]`)
* Fix bug that lead to duplicate messages when using ``--jobs 2`` or more.
* Adds option ``check-protected-access-in-special-methods`` in the ClassChecker to activate/deactivate
  ``protected-access`` message emission for single underscore prefixed attribute in special methods.
* Fix vulnerable regular expressions in ``pyreverse``
* ``inconsistent-return-statements`` message is now emitted if one of ``try/except`` statement
  is not returning explicitly while the other do.
* Fix ``useless-super-delegation`` false positive when default keyword argument is a dictionnary.

* `len-as-conditions` is now triggered only for classes that are inheriting directly from list, dict, or set and not implementing the `__bool__` function, or from generators like range or list/dict/set comprehension. This should reduce the false positives for other classes, like pandas's DataFrame or numpy's Array.
* Fixes duplicate-errors not working with -j2+

* Changed setup.py to work with [distlib](https://pypi.org/project/distlib)
* New check: ``consider-using-generator``
  This check warns when a comprehension is used inside an `any` or `all` function,
  since it is unnecessary and should be replaced by a generator instead.
  Using a generator would be less code and way faster.
* Add Github Actions to replace Travis and AppVeyor in the future

py-pylint: updated to 2.6.0

What's New in Pylint 2.6.0?
===========================

* Fix various scope-related bugs in ``undefined-variable`` checker

* bad-continuation and bad-whitespace have been removed, black or another formatter can help you with this better than Pylint

* The no-space-check option has been removed. It's no longer possible to consider empty line like a `trailing-whitespace` by using clever options

* ``missing-kwoa`` is no longer emitted when dealing with overload functions

* mixed-indentation has been removed, it is no longer useful since TabError is included directly in python3

* Add `super-with-arguments` check for flagging instances of Python 2 style super calls.

* Add an faq detailing which messages to disable to avoid duplicates w/ other popular linters

* Fix superfluous-parens false-positive for the walrus operator

* Fix `fail-under` not accepting floats

* Fix a bug with `ignore-docstrings` ignoring all lines in a module

* Fix `pre-commit` config that could lead to undetected duplicate lines of code

* Fix a crash in parallel mode when the module's filepath is not set

* Add `raise-missing-from` check for exceptions that should have a cause.

* Support both isort 4 and isort 5. If you have pinned isort 4 in your projet requirements, nothing changes. If you use isort 5, though, note that the `known-standard-library` option is not interpreted the same in isort 4 and isort 5 (see the migration guide in isort documentation for further details). For compatibility's sake for most pylint users, the `known-standard-library` option in pylint now maps to `extra-standard-library` in isort 5. If you really want what `known-standard-library` now means in isort 5, you must disable the `wrong-import-order` check in pylint and run isort manually with a proper isort configuration file.

What's New in Pylint 2.5.3?
* Fix a regression where disable comments that have checker names with numbers in them are not parsed correctly
* `property-with-parameters` properly handles abstract properties
* `continue-in-finally` no longer emitted on Python 3.8 where it's now valid
* Fix a regression where messages with dash are not fully parsed
* Fix a regression where the score was not reported with multiple jobs
* In a TOML configuration file, it's now possible to use rich (non-string) types, such as list, integer or boolean instead of strings. For example, one can now define a *list* of message identifiers to enable like this::

    enable = [
        "use-symbolic-message-instead",
        "useless-suppression",
    ]
* Protect against `AttributeError` when checking `cell-var-from-loop`

py-pylint: updated to 2.5.2

What's New in Pylint 2.5.2?
* ``pylint.Run`` accepts ``do_exit`` as a deprecated parameter

What's New in Pylint 2.5.1?
* Fix a crash in `method-hidden` lookup for unknown base classes
* Revert pylint.Run's `exit` parameter to ``do_exit``
  This has been inadvertently changed several releases ago to ``do_exit``.
* ``no-value-for-parameter`` variadic detection has improved for assign statements
* Allow package files to be properly discovered with multiple jobs
* Allow linting directories without `__init__.py` which was a regression in 2.5.

What's New in Pylint 2.5.0?
* Fix a false negative for ``undefined-variable`` when using class attribute in comprehension.
* Fix a false positive for ``undefined-variable`` when using class attribute in decorator or as type hint.
* Remove HTML quoting of messages in JSON output.
* Adjust the `invalid-name` rule to work with non-ASCII identifiers and add the `non-ascii-name` rule.
* Positional-only arguments are taken in account for ``useless-super-delegation``
* ``unidiomatic-typecheck`` is no longer emitted for ``in`` and ``not in`` operators
* Positional-only argument annotations are taken in account for ``unused-import``
* Add a command to list available extensions.
* Allow used variables to be properly consumed when different checks are enabled / disabled
* Fix dangerous-default-value rule to account for keyword argument defaults
* Fix a false positive of ``self-assigning-variable`` on tuple unpacking.
* ``no-self-use`` is no longer emitted for typing stubs.
* Fix a false positive for ``undefined-variable`` when ``__class__`` is used
* Emit ``invalid-name`` for variables defined in loops at module level.
* Add a check for cases where the second argument to `isinstance` is not a type.
* Add 'notes-rgx' option, to be used for fixme check.
* ``function-redefined`` exempts function redefined on a condition.
* ``typing.overload`` functions are exempted from docstring checks
* Emit ``invalid-overridden-method`` for improper async def overrides.
* Do not allow ``python -m pylint ...`` to import user code
  ``python -m pylint ...`` adds the current working directory as the first element
  of ``sys.path``. This opens up a potential security hole where ``pylint`` will import
  user level code as long as that code resides in modules having the same name as stdlib
  or pylint's own modules.
* Add `dummy-variables-rgx` option for `_redeclared-assigned-name` check.
* Fixed graph creation for relative paths
* Add a check for asserts on string literals.
* `not in` is considered iterating context for some of the Python 3 porting checkers.
* A new check `inconsistent-quotes` was added.
* Add a check for non string assignment to __name__ attribute.
* `__pow__`, `__imatmul__`, `__trunc__`, `__floor__`, and `__ceil__` are recognized as special method names.
* Added errors for protocol functions when invalid return types are detected.
  E0304 (invalid-bool-returned): __bool__ did not return a bool
  E0305 (invalid-index-returned): __index__ did not return an integer
  E0306 (invalid-repr-returned): __repr__ did not return a string
  E0307 (invalid-str-returned): __str__ did not return a string
  E0308 (invalid-bytes-returned): __bytes__ did not return a string
  E0309 (invalid-hash-returned): __hash__ did not return an integer
  E0310 (invalid-length-hint-returned): __length_hint__ did not return a non-negative integer
  E0311 (invalid-format-returned): __format__ did not return a string
  E0312 (invalid-getnewargs-returned): __getnewargs__ did not return a tuple
  E0313 (invalid-getnewargs-ex-returned): __getnewargs_ex__ did not return a tuple of the form (tuple, dict)
* ``missing-*-docstring`` can look for ``__doc__`` assignments.
* ``undefined-variable`` can now find undefined loop iterables
* ``safe_infer`` can infer a value as long as all the paths share the same type.
* Add a --fail-under <score> flag, also configurable in a .pylintrc file. If the final score is more than the specified score, it's considered a success and pylint exits with exitcode 0. Otherwise, it's considered a failure and pylint exits with its current exitcode based on the messages issued.
* Don't emit ``line-too-long`` for multilines when `disable=line-too-long` comment stands at their end
* Fixed an ``AttributeError`` caused by improper handling of ``dataclasses`` inference in ``pyreverse``
* Do not exempt bare except from ``undefined-variable`` and similar checks
  If a node was wrapped in a ``TryExcept``, ``pylint`` was taking a hint
  from the except handler when deciding to emit or not a message.
  We were treating bare except as a fully fledged ignore but only
  the corresponding exceptions should be handled that way (e.g. ``NameError`` or ``ImportError``)
* No longer emit ``assignment-from-no-return`` when a function only raises an exception
* Allow import aliases to exempt ``import-error`` when used in type annotations.
* ``Ellipsis` is exempted from ``multiple-statements`` for function overloads.
* No longer emit ``invalid-name`` for non-constants found at module level.
  Pylint was taking the following statement from PEP-8 too far, considering
  all module level variables as constants, which is not what the statement is saying:
  `Constants are usually defined on a module level and written in
  all capital letters with underscores separating words.`
* Allow ``implicit-str-concat-in-sequence`` to be emitted for string juxtaposition
* ``implicit-str-concat-in-sequence`` was renamed ``implicit-str-concat``
* The ``json`` reporter no longer bypasses ``redirect_stdout``.
* Move ``NoFileError``, ``OutputLine``, ``FunctionalTestReporter``,
  ``FunctionalTestFile``, ``LintModuleTest`` and related methods from
  ``test_functional.py`` to ``pylint.testutils`` to help testing for 3rd
  party pylint plugins.
* Can read config from a setup.cfg or pyproject.toml file.
* Fix exception-escape false positive with generators
* ``inspect.getargvalues`` is no longer marked as deprecated.
* A new check ``f-string-without-interpolation`` was added
* Flag mutable ``collections.*`` utilities as dangerous defaults
* ``docparams`` extension supports multiple types in raises sections.
  Multiple types can also be separated by commas in all valid sections.
* Allow parallel linting when run under Prospector
* Fixed false positives of ``method-hidden`` when a subclass defines the method that is being hidden.
* Python 3 porting mode is 30-50% faster on most codebases
* Python 3 porting mode no longer swallows syntax errors
* Pass the actual PyLinter object to sub processes to allow using custom
  PyLinter classes.
  PyLinter object (and all its members except reporter) needs to support
  pickling so the PyLinter object can be passed to worker processes.
* Clean up setup.py
  Make pytest-runner a requirement only if running tests, similar to McCabe.
  Clean up the setup.py file, resolving a number of warnings around it.
* Handle SyntaxError in files passed via ``--from-stdin`` option
  Pylint no longer outputs a traceback, if a file, read from stdin,
  contains a syntaxerror.
* Fix uppercase style to disallow 3+ uppercase followed by lowercase.
* Fixed ``undefined-variable`` and ``unused-import`` false positives
  when using a metaclass via an attribute.
* Emit ``unused-argument`` for functions that partially uses their argument list before raising an exception.
* Fixed ``broad_try_clause`` extension to check try/finally statements and to
  check for nested statements (e.g., inside of an ``if`` statement).
* Recognize classes explicitly inheriting from ``abc.ABC`` or having an
  ``abc.ABCMeta`` metaclass as abstract. This makes them not trigger W0223.
* Fix overzealous `arguments-differ` when overridden function uses variadics
  No message is emitted if the overriding function provides positional or
  keyword variadics in its signature that can feasibly accept and pass on
  all parameters given by the overridden function.
* Multiple types of string formatting are allowed in logging functions.
  The `logging-fstring-interpolation` message has been brought back to allow
  multiple types of string formatting to be used.

py-pylint: updated to 2.4.2


What's New in Pylint 2.4.2?
* ``ignored-modules`` can skip submodules.
* ``self-assigning-variable`` skips class level assignments.
* ``consider-using-sys-exit`` is exempted when `exit()` is imported from `sys`
* Exempt annotated assignments without variable from ``class-variable-slots-conflict``
* Fix ``utils.is_error`` to account for functions returning early.
  This fixes a false negative with ``unused-variable`` which was no longer triggered
  when a function raised an exception as the last instruction, but the body of the function
  still had unused variables.

What's New in Pylint 2.4.1?
* Exempt type checking definitions defined in both clauses of a type checking guard
* Exempt type checking definitions inside the type check guard
  In a7f236528bb3758886b97285a56f3f9ce5b13a99 we added basic support
  for emitting `used-before-assignment` if a variable was only defined
  inside a type checking guard (using `TYPE_CHECKING` variable from `typing`)
  Unfortunately that missed the case of using those type checking imports
  inside the guard itself, which triggered spurious used-before-assignment errors.
* Require astroid >= 2.3 to avoid any compatibility issues.

What's New in Pylint 2.4.0?
* New check: ``import-outside-toplevel``
  This check warns when modules are imported from places other than a
  module toplevel, e.g. inside a function or a class.
* Handle inference ambiguity for ``invalid-format-index``
* Removed Python 2 specific checks such as ``relative-import``,
  ``invalid-encoded-data``, ``missing-super-argument``.
* Support forward references for ``function-redefined`` check.
* Handle redefinitions in case of type checking imports.
* Added a new check, ``consider-using-sys-exit``
  This check is emitted when we detect that a quit() or exit() is invoked
  instead of sys.exit(), which is the preferred way of exiting in program.
* ``useless-suppression`` check now ignores ``cyclic-import`` suppressions,
  which could lead to false postiives due to incomplete context at the time
  of the check.
* Added new checks, ``no-else-break`` and ``no-else-continue``
  These checks highlight unnecessary ``else`` and ``elif`` blocks after
  ``break`` and ``continue`` statements.
* Don't emit ``protected-access`` when a single underscore prefixed attribute
  is used inside a special method
* Fix the "statement" values in the PyLinter's stats reports by module.
* Added a new check, ``invalid-overridden-method``
  This check is emitted when we detect that a method is overridden
  as a property or a property is overridden as a method. This can indicate
  a bug in the application code that will trigger a runtime error.
* Added a new check, ``arguments-out-of-order``
  This check warns if you have arguments with names that match those in
  a function's signature but you are passing them in to the function
  in a different order.
* Added a new check, ``redeclared-assigned-name``
  This check is emitted when ``pylint`` detects that a name
  was assigned one or multiple times in the same assignment,
  which indicate a potential bug.
* Ignore lambda calls with variadic arguments without a context.
  Inferring variadic positional arguments and keyword arguments
  will result into empty Tuples and Dicts, which can lead in
  some cases to false positives with regard to no-value-for-parameter.
  In order to avoid this, until we'll have support for call context
  propagation, we're ignoring such cases if detected.
  We already did that for function calls, but the previous fix
  was not taking in consideration ``lambdas``
* Added a new check, ``self-assigning-variable``
  This check is emitted when we detect that a variable is assigned
  to itself, which might indicate a potential bug in the code application.
* Added a new check, ``property-with-parameters``.
  This check is emitted when we detect that a defined property also
  has parameters, which are useless.
* Excluded protocol classes from a couple of checks.
* Add a check `unnecessary-comprehension` that detects unnecessary comprehensions.
  This check is emitted when ``pylint`` finds list-, set- or dict-comprehensions,
  that are unnecessary and can be rewritten with the list-, set- or dict-constructors.
* Excluded PEP 526 instance and class variables from ``no-member``.
* Excluded `attrs` from `too-few-public-methods` check.
* ``unused-import`` emitted for the right import names in function scopes.
* Dropped support for Python 3.4.
* ``assignment-from-no-return`` not triggered for async methods.
* Don't emit ``attribute-defined-outside-init`` for variables defined in setters.
* Syntax errors report the column number.
* Support fully qualified typing imports for type annotations.
* Exclude ``__dict__`` from ``attribute-defined-outside-init``
* Fix pointer on spelling check when the error are more than one time in the same line.
* Fix crash happening when parent of called object cannot be determined
* Allow of in `GoogleDocstring.re_multiple_type`
* Added `subprocess-run-check` to handle subrocess.run without explicitly set `check` keyword.
* When we can't infer bare except handlers, skip ``try-except-raise``
* Handle more `unnecessary-lambda` cases when dealing with additional kwargs in wrapped calls
* Better postponed evaluation of annotations handling
* Support postponed evaluation of annotations for variable annotations.
* ``epylint.py_run`` defaults to ``python`` in case the current executable is not a Python one.
* Ignore raw docstrings when running Similarities checker with `ignore-docstrings=yes` option
* Fix crash when calling ``inherit_from_std_ex`` on a class which is its own ancestor
* Added a new check that warns the user if a function call is used inside a test but parentheses are missing.
* ``len-as-condition`` now only fires when a ``len(x)`` call is made without an explicit comparison
  The message and description accompanying this checker has been changed
  reflect this new behavior, by explicitly asking to either rely on the
  fact that empty sequence are false or to compare the length with a scalar.
* Add ``preferred-module`` checker that notify if an import has a replacement module that should be used.
  This check is emitted when ``pylint`` finds an imported module that has a
  preferred replacement listed in ``preferred-modules``.
* ``assigning-non-slot`` not emitted for classes with unknown base classes.
* ``old-division`` is not emitted for non-Const nodes.
* Added method arguments to the dot writer for pyreverse.
* Support for linting file from stdin.
  IDEs may benefit from the support for linting from an in-memory file.
* Added a new check `class-variable-slots-conflict`
  This check is emitted when ``pylint`` finds a class variable that conflicts with a slot
  name, which would raise a ``ValueError`` at runtime.
* Added new check: dict-iter-missing-items (E1141)
* Fix issue with pylint name in output of python -m pylint --version
* Relicense logo material under the CC BY-SA 4.0 license.
* Skip `if` expressions from f-strings for the `check_elif` checker
* C0412 (ungrouped-import) is now compatible with isort.
* Added new extension to detect too much code in a try clause
* ``signature-mutators`` option was added
   With this option, users can choose to ignore `too-many-function-args`, `unexpected-keyword-arg`,
   and `no-value-for-parameter` for functions decorated with decorators that change
   the signature of a decorated function.
* Fixed a pragma comment on its own physical line being ignored when part
  of a logical line with the previous physical line.
* Fixed false `undefined-loop-variable` for a function defined in the loop,
  that uses the variable defined in that loop.
* Fixed `unused-argument` and `function-redefined` getting raised for
  functions decorated with `typing.overload`.
* Fixed a false positive with ``consider-using-dict-comprehension`` for constructions that can't be converted to a comprehension
* Added ``__post_init__`` to ``defining-attr-methods`` in order to avoid ``attribute-defined-outside-init`` in dataclasses.
* Changed description of W0199 to use the term 2-item-tuple instead of 2-uple.
* Allow a `.` as a prefix for Sphinx name resolution.
* Checkers must now keep a 1 to 1 relationship between "msgid" (ie: C1234) and "symbol" (ie : human-readable-symbol)
* In checkers, an old_names can now be used for multiple new messages and pylint is now a little faster
* Allow the choice of f-strings as a valid way of formatting logging strings.
* Added ``--list-msgs-enabled`` command to list all enabled and disabled messages given the current RC file and command line arguments.

py-pylint: updated to 2.3.0

What's New in Pylint 2.3.0?
* Protect against NonDeducibleTypeHierarchy when calling semi-private is_subtype
  astroid.helpers.is_subtype raises NonDeducibleTypeHierarchy when it cannot infer
  the base classes of the given types, but that makes sense in its context given that
  the method is mostly used to inform the inference process about the hierarchy of classes.
  Doesn't make that much sense for pylint itself, which is why we're handling the
  exception here, rather than in astroid
* Added a new command line option list-groups for listing all the check groups pylint knows about.
* Allow BaseException for emitting broad-except, just like Exception.
* Fixed a crash that occurred for bad-str-strip-call when strip() received None
* Don't emit *-not-iterating checks for builtins consumed by itertools
* Fix a crash caused by iterating over Uninferable in a string formatting check.
* Fixed false positives for no-self-argument and unsubscriptable-object when using __class_getitem__ (new in Python 3.7)
* Support Ellipsis as a synonym for pass statements.
* fixme gets triggered only on comments.
* Fixed a false positive for unused-variable and nonlocal assignments
* Added load_configuration() hook for plugins
  New optional hook for plugins is added: load_configuration().
  This hook is executed after configuration is loaded to prevent
  overwriting plugin specific configuration via user-based
  configuration.
* Fix missing-raises-doc false positive (W9006)
* Exempt starred unpacking from *-not-iterating Python 3 checks
* Make compare-to-zero less zealous by checking against equality and identity
* Add no-else-raise warning (R1720)
* Exempt yield from from *-not-iterating Python 3 checks.
* Fix incorrect generation of no-else-return warnings (R1705)
  Fixed issue where if statements with nested if statements
  were incorrectly being flagged as no-else-return in some cases and
  not being flagged as no-else-return in other cases.  Added tests
  for verification and updated pylint source files to eliminate newly
  exposed warnings.
* Fix false positive with not-async-context-manager caused by not understanding contextlib.asynccontextmanager
* Refactor bad-reversed-sequence to account for more objects that can define __reversed__
  One such object would be an enum class, for which __reversed__ yields each individual enum.
  As such, the check for bad-reversed-sequence needs to not differentiate between classes
  and instances when it comes for checking of __reversed__ presence.
* Added wrong-exception-operation
  Used when an operation is done against an exception, but the operation
  is not valid for the exception in question. Usually emitted when having
  binary operations between exceptions in except handlers.
* no-member is emitted for enums when they lack a member
  Previously we weren't doing this because we detected a
  __getattr__ implementation on the Enum class
  (and this check is skipped for classes with __getattr__),
  but that is fine for Enums, given that they are inferred in a customised
  way in astroid.
* Generalize chained-comparison
  Previous version incorrectly detects a < b < c and b < d and fails to
  detect a < b < c and c < d.
* Avoid popping __main__ when using multiple jobs
* Add a new option 'check-str-concat-over-line-jumps' to check 'implicit-str-concat-in-sequence'
* Fixes for the new style logging format linter.
  The number of arguments was not handled properly, leading to an always
  successful check.
* Fix false positive not-callable for uninferable properties.
* Fix false positive useless-else-on-loop if the break is deep in the else
  of an inner loop.

* Change the logging-format-style to use name identifier instead of their
  corresponding Python identifiers

  This is to prevent users having to think about escaping the default value for
  logging-format-style in the generated config file. Also our config parsing
  utilities don't quite support escaped values when it comes to choices detection,
  so this would have needed various hacks around that.

What's New in Pylint 2.2?

* Consider range() objects for undefined-loop-variable leaking from iteration.
* deprecated-method can use the attribute name for identifying a deprecated method
  Previously we were using the fully qualified name, which we still do, but the fully
  qualified name for some unittest deprecated aliases leads to a generic
  deprecation function. Instead on relying on that, we now also rely on the attribute
  name, which should solve some false positives.
* Fix compatibility with changes to stdlib tokenizer.
* pylint is less eager to consume the whole line for pragmas
* Obtain the correct number of CPUs for virtualized or containerized environments.
* Change unbalanced-tuple-unpacking back to a warning.
  It used to be a warning until a couple of years ago, after it was promoted to
  an error. But the check might be suggesting the wrong thing in some cases,
  for instance when checking against sys.argv which cannot be known at static
  analysis time. Given it might rely on potential unknown data, it's best to
  have it as a warning.
* Remove enumerate usage suggestion when defining __iter__ (C0200)
* Emit too-many-starred-assignment only when the number of Starred nodes is per assignment elements
* try-except-raise checker now handles multilevel inheritance hirerachy for exceptions correctly.
* Add a new check, simplifiable-if-expression for expressions like True if cond else False.
* too-few-public-methods is not reported for typing.NamedTuple
* too-few-public-methods is not reported for dataclasses created with options.
* Remove wrong modules from 'bad-python3-import'.
* The json reporter prints an empty list when no messages are emitted
* Add a new check, duplicate-string-formatting-argument
  This new check is emitted whenever a duplicate string formatting argument
  is found.
* assignment-from-no-return is not emitted for coroutines.
* Report format string type mismatches.
* consider-using-ternary and simplified-boolean-expression no longer emit for sequence based checks
* Handle AstroidSyntaxError when trying to import a module.
* Allow __module__ to be redefined at a class level.
* pylint used to emit a unused-variable error if unused import was found in the function. Now instead of
  unused-variable, unused-import is emitted.
* Handle asyncio.coroutine when looking for not-an-iterable check.
* The locally-enabled check is gone.
* Infer decorated methods when looking for method-hidden
* Pick the latest value from the inferred values when looking for raising-non-exception
* Extend the TYPE_CHECKING guard to TYPE_CHECKING name as well, not just the attribute
* Ignore import x.y.z as z cases for checker useless-import-alias.
* Fix false positive undefined-variable and used-before-assignment with nonlocal keyword usage.
* Stop protected-access exception for missing class attributes
* Don't emit assignment-from-no-return for decorated function nodes
* unnecessary-pass is now also emitted when a function or class contains only docstring and pass statement.
   In Python, stubbed functions often have a body that contains just a single pass statement,
   indicating that the function doesn't do anything. However, a stubbed function can also have just a
   docstring, and function with a docstring and no body also does nothing.
* duplicate-argument-name is emitted for more than one duplicate argument per function
* Allow double indentation levels for more distinguishable indentations
* Consider tuples in exception handler for try-except-raise.
* Fix astroid.ClassDef check in checkers.utils.is_subclass_of
* Fix wildcard imports being ignored by the import checker
* Fix external/internal distinction being broken in the import graph
* Fix wildcard import check not skipping __init__.py
* Fix --ignore-imports to understand multi-line imports
* Add a new check 'implicit-str-concat-in-sequence' to spot string concatenation inside lists, sets & tuples.
* literal-comparison is now emitted for 0 and 1 literals.

   * trailing-comma-tuple gets emitted for yield statements as well.

   * Get only the arguments of the scope function for redefined-argument-from-local

   * Add a check misplaced-format-function which is emitted if format function is used on
     non str object.

   * chain.from_iterable no longer emits dict-{}-not-iterating when dealing with dict values and keys

   * Demote the try-except-raise message from an error to a warning (E0705 -> W0706)

   * Correctly handle the new name of the Python implementation of the abc module.

    * Modules with __getattr__ are exempted by default from no-member

      There's no easy way to figure out if a module has a particular member when
      the said module uses __getattr__, which is a new addition to Python 3.7.
      Instead we assume the safe thing to do, in the same way we do for classes,
      and skip those modules from checking.

    * Fix a false positive invalid name message when method or attribute name is longer then 30 characters.

    * Include the type of the next branch in no-else-return

    * Fix inconsistent behaviour for bad-continuation on first line of file

     * Fix not being able to disable certain messages on the last line through
       the global disable option

    * Don't emit useless-return when we have a single statement that is the return itself

      We still want to be explicit when a function is supposed to return
      an optional value; even though pass could still work, it's not explicit
      enough and the function might look like it's missing an implementation.

   * Fix false-positive undefined-variable for self referential class name in lamdbas

    * Don't crash when pylint is unable to infer the value of an argument to next()

    * Don't emit not-an-iterable when dealing with async iterators.

      But do emit it when using the usual iteration protocol against
      async iterators.

   * Can specify a default docstring type for when the check cannot guess the type

py-pylint: updated to 2.0.0

Pylint 2.0:
* trailing-comma-tuple can be emitted for return statements as well.
* Fix a false positive inconsistent-return-statements message when exception is raised
  inside an else statement.
* ImportFrom nodes correctly use the full name for the import sorting checks.
* [].extend and similar builtin operations don't emit dict-*-not-iterating with the Python 3 porting checker
* Add a check consider-using-dict-comprehension which is emitted if for dict initialization
  the old style with list comprehensions is used.
* Add a check consider-using-set-comprehension which is emitted if for set initialization
  the old style with list comprehensions is used.
* logging-not-lazy is emitted whenever pylint infers that a string is built with addition
* Add a check chained-comparison which is emitted if a boolean operation can be simplified
  by chaining some of its operations.
  e.g "a < b and b < c", can be simplified as "a < b < c".
* Add a check consider-using-in for comparisons of a variable against
  multiple values with "==" and "or"s instead of checking if the variable
  is contained "in" a tuple of those values.
* in is considered iterating context for some of the Python 3 porting checkers
* Add --ignore-none flag to control if pylint should warn about no-member where the owner is None
* Fix a false positive related to too-many-arguments and bounded __get__ methods
* mcs as the first parameter of metaclass's __new__ method was replaced by cls
* assignment-from-no-return considers methods as well.
* Support typing.TYPE_CHECKING for *unused-import* errors
* Inferred classes at a function level no longer emit invalid-name
  when they don't respect the variable regular expression
* Added basic support for postponed evaluation of function annotations.
* Fix a bug with missing-kwoa and variadics parameters
* simplifiable-if-statement takes in account only when assigning to same targets
* Make len-as-condition test more cases, such as len() < 1 or len <= 0'
* Fix false-positive line-too-long message emission for
  commented line at the end of a module
* Fix false-positive bad-continuation for with statements
* Don't warn about stop-iteration-return when using next() over itertools.count
* Add a check consider-using-get for unidiomatic usage of value/default-retrieval
  for a key from a dictionary
* invalid-slice-index is not emitted when the slice is used as index for a complex object.
  We only use a handful of known objects (list, set and friends) to figure out if
  we should emit invalid-slice-index when the slice is used to subscript an object.
* Don't emit unused-import anymore for typing imports used in type comments.
* Add a new check 'useless-import-alias'.
* Add comparison-with-callable to warn for comparison with bare callable, without calling it.
* Don't warn for missing-type-doc and/or missing-return-type-doc, if type
  annotations exist on the function signature for a parameter and/or return type.
* Add --exit-zero option for continuous integration scripts to more
  easily call Pylint in environments that abort when a program returns a
  non-zero (error) status code.
* Warn if the first argument of an instance/ class method gets assigned
* New check comparison-with-itself to check comparison between same value.
* Add a new warning, 'logging-fstring-interpolation', emitted when f-string
  is used within logging function calls.
* Don't show 'useless-super-delegation' if the subclass method has different type annotations.
* Add unhashable-dict-key check.
* Don't warn that a global variable is unused if it is defined by an import
* Skip wildcard import check for __init__.py.
* The Python 3 porting mode can now run with Python 3 as well.
* too-few-public-methods is not emitted for dataclasses.
* New verbose mode option, enabled with --verbose command line flag, to
  display of extra non-checker-related output. It is disabled by default.
* undefined-loop-variable takes in consideration non-empty iterred objects before emitting
* Add support for numpydoc optional return value names.
* singleton-comparison accounts for negative checks
* Add a check consider-using-in for comparisons of a variable against
  multiple values with "==" and "or"s instead of checking if the variable
  is contained "in" a tuple of those values.
* defaultdict and subclasses of dict are now handled for dict-iter-* checks
* logging-format-interpolation also emits when f-strings are used instead of % syntax.
* Don't trigger misplaced-bare-raise when the raise is in a finally clause
* Add a new check, possibly-unused-variable.
  This is similar to unused-variable, the only difference is that it is
  emitted when we detect a locals() call in the scope of the unused variable.
  The locals() call could potentially use the said variable, by consuming
  all values that are present up to the point of the call. This new check
  allows to disable this error when the user intentionally uses locals()
  to consume everything.
* no-else-return accounts for multiple cases
   The check was a bit overrestrictive because we were checking for
   return nodes in the .orelse node. At that point though the if statement
   can be refactored to not have the orelse. This improves the detection of
   other cases, for instance it now detects TryExcept nodes that are part of
   the .else branch.
* Added two new checks, invalid-envvar-value and invalid-envvar-default.
  The former is trigger whenever pylint detects that environment variable manipulation
  functions uses a different type than strings, while the latter is emitted whenever
  the said functions are using a default variable of different type than expected.
* Add a check consider-using-join for concatenation of strings using str.join(sequence)
* Add a check consider-swap-variables for swapping variables with tuple unpacking
* Add new checker try-except-raise that warns the user if an except handler block
  has a raise statement as its first operator. The warning is shown when there is
  a bare raise statement, effectively re-raising the exception that was caught or the
  type of the exception being raised is the same as the one being handled.
* Don't crash on invalid strings when checking for logging-format-interpolation
* Exempt __doc__ from triggering a redefined-builtin
  __doc__ can be used to specify a docstring for a module without
  passing it as a first-statement string.
* Fix false positive bad-whitespace from function arguments with default
  values and annotations
* Fix stop-iteration-return false positive when next builtin has a
  default value in a generator
* Fix emission of false positive no-member message for class with  "private" attributes whose name is mangled.
* Fixed a crash which occurred when Uninferable wasn't properly handled in stop-iteration-return
* Use the proper node to get the name for redefined functions
* Don't crash when encountering bare raises while checking inconsistent returns
* Fix a false positive inconsistent-return-statements message when if statement is inside try/except.
* Fix a false positive inconsistent-return-statements message when while loop are used.
* Correct column number for whitespace conventions.
  Previously the column was stuck at 0
* Fix unused-argument false positives with overshadowed variable in
  dictionary comprehension.
* Fix false positive inconsistent-return-statements message when never
  returning functions are used (i.e sys.exit for example).
* Fix error when checking if function is exception, as in bad-exception-context.
* Fix false positive inconsistent-return-statements message when a
  function is defined under an if statement.
* New useless-return message when function or method ends with a "return" or
  "return None" statement and this is the only return statement in the body.
* Fix false positive inconsistent-return-statements message by
  avoiding useless exception inference if the exception is not handled.
* Fix bad thread instantiation check when target function is provided in args.
* Fixed false positive when a numpy Attributes section follows a Parameters
  section
* Fix incorrect file path when file absolute path contains multiple path_strip_prefix strings.
* Fix false positive undefined-variable for lambda argument in class definitions
* Add of a new checker that warns the user if some messages are enabled or disabled
  by id instead of symbol.
* Suppress false-positive not-callable messages from certain
  staticmethod descriptors
* Fix indentation handling with tabs
* Fix false-positive bad-continuation error
* Fix false positive unused-variable in lambda default arguments
* Updated the default report format to include paths that can be clicked on in some terminals (e.g. iTerm).
* Fix inline def behavior with too-many-statements checker
* Fix KeyError raised when using docparams and NotImplementedError is documented.
* Fix 'method-hidden' raised when assigning to a property or data descriptor.
* Fix emitting useless-super-delegation when changing the default value of keyword arguments.
* Expand ignored-argument-names include starred arguments and keyword arguments
* Fix false-postive undefined-variable in nested lambda

py-pylint: updated to 1.9.2

Pylint 1.9.2:
* Fix `KeyError` raised when using docparams and NotImplementedError is documented.

* Don't include excepthandlers that don't have a name when looking for exception-escape

* Rewrite the comprehension-escape and exception-escape to work only on the corresponding nodes

These two checks were implemented in terms of visit_namne, that is, for every name in the tree,
we looked to see if that name leaked. This was resulting in a couple of false positives
and also in a performance issue, since we were calling nodes_of_class() and scope() for each
name node. Instead, this approach uses the visit methods for exception and comprehension nodes
and looks to see from there if the current scope uses leaked names.
This is not the ideal situation as well, ideal would be to have access to the definition
frame of each name, but that requires some extra engineering effort in astroid to get it right.

* builtins is allowed to redefine builtins.

  is not a dict object but rather a proxy object, so any changes made
  on copy may have unexpected effects on os.environ
  Instead of copy.copy(os.environ) method os.environ.copy() should be
  used.
* Do not display no-absolute-import warning multiple times per file.
* trailing-comma-tuple refactor check now extends to assignment with
   more than one element (such as lists)
* Fixing u'' string in superfluous-parens message
* abstract-class-instantiated is now emitted for all inference paths.
* Add set of predefined naming style to ease configuration of checking
  naming conventions.
* Added a new check, keyword-arg-before-vararg
  This is emitted for function definitions
  in which keyword arguments are placed before variable
  positional arguments (*args).
  This may lead to args list getting modified if keyword argument's value
  is not provided in the function call assuming it will take default value
  provided in the definition.
* The invalid-name check contains the name of the template that caused the failure
* Using the -j flag won't start more child linters than needed.
* Fix a false positive with bad-python3-import on relative imports
* Added a new Python 3 check, non-ascii-bytes-literals
* Added a couple of new Python 3 checks for accessing dict methods in non-iterable context
* Protocol checks (not-a-mapping, not-an-iterable and co.) aren't emitted on classes with dynamic getattr
* Added a new warning, 'bad-thread-instantiation'
  This message is emitted when the threading.Thread class does not
  receive the target argument, but receives just one argument, which
  is by default the group parameter.
* In non-quiet mode, absolute path of used config file is logged to
  standard error.
* Raise meaningful exception for invalid reporter class being selected
  When unknown reporter class will be selected as Pylint reporter,
  meaningful error message would be raised instead of bare ImportError
  or AttribueError related to module or reporter class being not found.
* Added a new Python 3 check for accessing removed functions from itertools
  like izip or ifilterfalse
* Added a new Python 3 check for accessing removed fields from the types
  module like UnicodeType or XRangeType
* Added a new Python 3 check for declaring a method next that would have
  been treated as an iterator in Python 2 but a normal function in Python 3.
* Added a new key-value pair in json output. The key is message-id
  and the value is the message id.
* Added a new Python 3.0 check for raising a StopIteration inside a generator.
  The check about raising a StopIteration inside a generator is also valid if the exception
  raised inherit from StopIteration.
* Added a new warning, raising-format-tuple, to detect multi-argument
  exception construction instead of message string formatting.
* Added a new check for method of logging module that concatenate string via + operator
* Added parameter for limiting number of suggestions in spellchecking checkers
* Fix a corner-case in consider-using-ternary checker.
  When object A used in  X and A or B was falsy in boolean context,
  Pylint incorrectly emitted non-equivalent ternary-based suggestion.
  After a change message is correctly not emitted for this case.
* Added suggestion-mode configuration flag. When flag is enabled, informational
  message is emitted instead of cryptic error message for attributes accessed on
  c-extensions.
* Fix a false positive useless-super-delegation message when
  parameters default values are different from those used in the base class.
* Disabling 'wrong-import-order', 'wrong-import-position', or
  'ungrouped-imports' for a single line now prevents that line from
  triggering violations on subsequent lines.
* Added a new Python check for inconsistent return statements inside method or function.
* Fix superfluous-parens false positive related to handling logical statements
  involving in operator.
* function-redefined message is no longer emitted for functions and
  methods which names matches dummy variable name regular expression.
* Fix missing-param-doc and missing-type-doc false positives when
  mixing Args and Keyword Args in Google docstring.
* Fix missing-docstring false negatives when modules, classes, or methods
 consist of compound statements that exceed the docstring-min-length
* Fix useless-else-on-loop false positives when break statements are
  deeply nested inside loop.
* Fix no wrong-import-order message emitted on ordering of first and third party
  libraries. With this fix, pylint distinguishes third and first party
  modules when checking import order.
* Fix pylint disable=fixme directives ignored for comments following the
  last statement in a file.
* Fix line-too-long message deactivated by wrong disable directive.
  The directive disable=fixme doesn't deactivate anymore the emission
  of line-too-long message for long commented lines.
* If the rcfile specified on the command line doesn't exist, then an
  IOError exception is raised.

Updated py-pylint to 1.6.1.

What's new in Pylint 1.6.1?
===========================

Release date: 2016-07-07

    * Use environment markers for supporting conditional dependencies.


What's New in Pylint 1.6.0?
===========================

Release date: 2016-07-07

    * Added a new extension, `pylint.extensions.mccabe`, for warning
      about complexity in code.

    * Deprecate support for --optimize-ast. Part of #975.

    * Deprecate support for the HTML output. Part of #975.

    * Deprecate support for --output-files. Part of #975.

    * Fixed a documentation error for the check_docs extension. Fixes #735.

    * Made the list of property-defining decorators configurable.

    * Fix a bug where the top name of a qualified import was detected as unused variable.

      Close #923.

    * bad-builtin is now an extension check.

    * generated-members support qualified name through regular expressions.

      For instance, one can specify a regular expression as --generated-members=astroid.node_classes.*
      for ignoring every no-member error that is accessed as in `astroid.node_classes.missing.object`.

    * Add the ability to ignore files based on regex matching, with the new ``--ignore-patterns``
      option.

      This addresses issue #156 by allowing for multiple ignore patterns
      to be specified. Rather than clobber the existing ignore option, we
      introduced a new one called ignore-patterns.

    * Added a new error, 'trailing-newlines', which is emitted when a file
      has trailing new lines.

      Closes issue #682.

    * Add a new option, 'redefining-builtins-modules', for controlling the modules
      which can redefine builtins, such as six.moves and future.builtins.

      Close #464.

    * 'reimported' is emitted when the same name is imported from different module.

      Close #162.

    * Add a new recommendation checker, 'consider-iterating-dictionary', which is emitted
      which is emitted when a dictionary is iterated through .keys().

      Close #699

    * Use the configparser backport for Python 2

      This fixes a problem we were having with comments inside values, which is fixed
      in Python 3's configparser.
      Close #828

    * A new error was added, 'invalid-length-returned', when the `__len__`
      special method returned something else than a non-negative number.

      Close issue #557

    * Switch to using isort internally for wrong-import-order.

      Closes #879.

    * check_docs extension can find constructor parameters in __init__.

      Closes #887.

    * Don't warn about invalid-sequence-index if the indexed object has unknown base
      classes.

      Closes #867

    * Don't crash when checking, for super-init-not-called, a method defined in an if block.

    * Do not emit import-error or no-name-in-module for fallback import blocks by default.

      Until now, we warned with these errors when a fallback import block (a TryExcept block
      that contained imports for Python 2 and 3) was found, but this gets cumbersome when
      trying to write compatible code. As such, we don't check these blocks by default,
      but the analysis can be enforced by using the new ``--analyse-fallback-block`` flag.

      Close #769.


What's New in Pylint 1.5.6?
===========================

Release date: 2016-06-06


    * config files with BOM markers can now be read.

      Close #864.

    * epylint.py_run does not crash on big files, using .communicate() instead of .wait()

      Close #599


What's New in Pylint 1.5.5?
===========================

Release date: 2016-03-21

    * Let visit_importfrom from Python 3 porting checker be called when everything is disabled

      Because the visit method was filtering the patterns it was expecting to be activated,
      it didn't run when everything but one pattern was disabled, leading to spurious false
      positives

      Close #852

    * Don't emit unsubscriptable-value for classes with unknown
      base classes.

      Close #776.

    * Use an OrderedDict for storing the configuration elements

      This fixes an issue related to impredictible order of the disable / enable
      elements from a config file. In certain cases, the disable was coming before
      the enable which resulted in classes of errors to be enabled, even though the intention
      was to disable them. The best example for this was in the context of running multiple
      processes, each one of it having different enables / disables that affected the output.

      Close #815

    * Don't consider bare and broad except handlers as ignoring NameError,
      AttributeError and similar exceptions, in the context of checkers for
      these issues.

      Closes issue #826


What's New in Pylint 1.5.4?
===========================

Release date: 2016-01-15


    * Merge StringMethodChecker with StringFormatChecker. This fixes a
      bug where disabling all the messages and enabling only a handful of
      messages from the StringFormatChecker would have resulted in no
      messages at all.

    * Don't apply unneeded-not over sets.


What's New in Pylint 1.5.3?
===========================

Release date: 2016-01-11


    * Handle the import fallback idiom with regard to wrong-import-order.

      Closes issue #750.

    * Decouple the displaying of reports from the displaying of messages

      Some reporters are aggregating the messages instead of displaying
      them when they are available. The actual displaying was conflatted
      in the generate_reports. Unfortunately this behaviour was flaky
      and in the case of the JSON reporter, the messages weren't shown
      at all if a file had syntax errors or if it was missing.
      In order to fix this, the aggregated messages can now be
      displayed with Reporter.display_message, while the reports are
      displayed with display_reports.

      Closes issues #766 and #765.

    * Ignore function calls with variadic arguments without a context.

      Inferring variadic positional arguments and keyword arguments
      will result into empty Tuples and Dicts, which can lead in
      some cases to false positives with regard to no-value-for-parameter.
      In order to avoid this, until we'll have support for call context
      propagation, we're ignoring such cases if detected.
      Closes issue #722.

    * Treat AsyncFunctionDef just like FunctionDef nodes,
      by implementing visit_asyncfunctiondef in terms of
      visit_functiondef.

      Closes issue #767.

    * Take in account kwonlyargs when verifying that arguments
      are defined with the check_docs extension.

      Closes issue #745.

    * Suppress reporting 'unneeded-not' inside `__ne__` methods

      Closes issue #749.


What's New in Pylint 1.5.2?
===========================

Release date: 2015-12-21


    * Don't crash if graphviz is not installed, instead emit a
      warning letting the user to know.

      Closes issue #168.

    * Accept only functions and methods for the deprecated-method checker.

      This prevents a crash which can occur when an object doesn't have
      .qname() method after the inference.

    * Don't emit super-on-old-class on classes with unknown bases.
      Closes issue #721.

    * Allow statements in `if` or `try` blocks containing imports.

      Closes issue #714.


What's New in Pylint 1.5.1?
===========================

Release date: 2015-12-02


    * Don't emit unsubscriptable-object if the node is found
      inside an abstract class. Closes issue #685.

    * Add wrong-import-position to check_messages's decorator arguments
      for ImportChecker.leave_module

      This fixes an esoteric bug which occurs when ungrouped-imports and
      wrong-import-order are disabled and pylint is executed on multiple files.
      What happens is that without wrong-import-position in check_messages,
      leave_module will never be called, which means that the first non-import node
      from other files might leak into the current file,
      leading to wrong-import-position being emitted by pylint.

    * Fix a crash which occurred when old visit methods are encountered
      in plugin modules. Closes issue #711.

    * Don't emit import-self and cyclic-import for relative imports
      of modules with the same name as the package itself.
      Closes issues #708 and #706.


What's New in Pylint 1.5.0?
===========================

Release date: 2015-11-29

    * Added multiple warnings related to imports. 'wrong-import-order'
      is emitted when PEP 8 recommendations regarding imports are not
      respected (that is, standard imports should be followed by third-party
      imports and then by local imports). 'ungrouped-imports' is emitted
      when imports from the same package or module are not placed
      together, but scattered around in the code. 'wrong-import-position'
      is emitted when code is mixed with imports, being recommended for the
      latter to be at the top of the file, in order to figure out easier by
      a human reader what dependencies a module has.
      Closes issue #692.

    * Added a new refactoring warning, 'unneeded-not', emitted
      when an expression with the not operator could be simplified.
      Closes issue #670.

    * Added a new refactoring warning, 'simplifiable-if-statement',
      used when an if statement could be reduced to a boolean evaluation
      of its test. Closes issue #698.

    * Added a new refactoring warning, 'too-many-boolean-expressions',
      used when a if statement contains too many boolean expressions,
      which makes the code less maintainable and harder to understand.
      Closes issue #677.

    * Property methods are shown as attributes instead of functions in
      pyreverse class diagrams. Closes Issue #284

    * Add a new refactoring error, 'too-many-nested-blocks', which is emitted
      when a function or a method has too many nested blocks, which makes the
      code less readable and harder to understand. Closes issue #668.

    * Add a new error, 'unsubscriptable-object', that is emitted when
      value used in subscription expression doesn't support subscription
      (i.e. doesn't define __getitem__ method).

    * Don't warn about abstract classes instantiated in their own
      body. Closes issue #627.

    * Obsolete options are not present by default in the generated
      configuration file. Closes issue #632.

    * non-iterator-returned can detect classes with iterator-metaclasses.
      Closes issue #679.

    * Add a new error, 'unsupported-membership-test', emitted when value
      to the right of the 'in' operator doesn't support membership test
      protocol (i.e. doesn't define __contains__/__iter__/__getitem__)

    * Add new errors, 'not-an-iterable', emitted when non-iterable value
      is used in an iterating context (starargs, for-statement,
      comprehensions, etc), and 'not-a-mapping', emitted when non-mapping
      value is used in a mapping context. Closes issue #563.

    * Make 'no-self-use' checker not emit a warning if there is a 'super()'
      call inside the method.
      Closes issue #667.

    * Add checker to identify multiple imports on one line.
      Closes issue #598.

    * Fix unused-argument false positive when the "+=" operator is used.
      Closes issue #518.

    * Don't emit import-error for ignored modules. PyLint will not emit import
      errors for any import which is, or is a subpackage of, a module in
      the ignored-modules list. Closes issue #223.

    * Fix unused-import false positive when the import is used in a
      class assignment. Closes issue #475

    * Add a new error, 'not-context-manager', emitted when something
      that doesn't implement __enter__ and __exit__ is used in a with
      statement.

    * Add a new warning, 'confusing-with-statement', emitted by the
      base checker, when an ambiguous looking with statement is used.
      For example `with open() as first, second` which looks like a
      tuple assignment but is actually 2 context managers.

    * Add a new warning, 'duplicate-except', emitted when there is an
      exception handler which handles an exception type that was handled
      before. Closes issue #485.

    * A couple of warnings got promoted to errors, since they could uncover
      potential bugs in the code. These warnings are: assignment-from-none,
      unbalanced-tuple-unpacking, unpacking-non-sequence, non-iterator-returned.
      Closes issue #388.

    * Allow ending a pragma control with a semicolon. In this way, users
      can continue a pragma control with a reason for why it is used,
      as in `# pylint: disable=old-style-class;reason=...`.
      Closes issue #449.

    * --jobs can be used with --load-plugins now. Closes issue #456.

    * Improve the performance of --jobs when dealing only with a package
      name. Closes issue #479.

    * Don't emit an unused-wildcard-import when the imported name comes
      from another module and it is in fact a __future__ name.

    * The colorized reporter now works on Windows. Closes issue #96.

    * Remove pointless-except warning. It was previously disabled by
      default and it wasn't very useful. Closes issue #506.

    * Fix a crash on Python 3 related to the string checker, which
      crashed when it encountered a bytes string with a .format
      method called.

    * Don't warn about no-self-use for builtin properties.

    * Fix a false positive for bad-reversed-sequence, when a subclass
      of a `dict` provides a __reversed__ method.

    * Change the default no-docstring-rgx so missing-docstring isn't
      emitted for private functions.

    * Don't emit redefined-outer-name for __future__ directives.
      Closes issue #520.

    * Provide some hints for the bad-builtin message. Closes issue #522.

    * When checking for invalid arguments to a callable, in typecheck.py,
      look up for the __init__ in case the found __new__ comes from builtins.

      Since the __new__ comes from builtins, it will not have attached any
      information regarding what parameters it expects, so the check
      will be useless. Retrieving __init__ in that case will at least
      detect a couple of false negatives. Closes issue #429.

    * Don't emit no-member for classes with unknown bases.

      Since we don't know what those bases might add, we simply ignore
      the error in this case.

    * Lookup in the implicit metaclass when checking for no-member,
      if the class in question has an implicit metaclass, which is
      True for new style classes. Closes issue #438.

    * Add two new warnings, duplicate-bases and inconsistent-mro.

      duplicate-bases is emitted when a class has the same bases
      listed more than once in its bases definition, while inconsistent-mro
      is emitted when no sane mro hierarchy can be determined. Closes issue #526.

    * Remove interface-not-implemented warning. Closes issue #532.

    * Remove the rest of interface checks: interface-is-not-class,
      missing-interface-method, unresolved-interface. The reason is that
      its better to start recommending ABCs instead of the old Zope era
      of interfaces. One side effect of this change is that ignore-iface-methods
      becomes a noop, it's deprecated and it will be removed at some time.

    * Emit a proper deprecation warning for reporters.BaseReporter.add_message.

      The alternative way is to use handle_message. add_message will be removed in
      Pylint 1.6.

    * Added new module 'extensions' for optional checkers with the test
      directory 'test/extensions' and documentation file 'doc/extensions.rst'.

    * Added new checker 'extensions.check_docs' that verifies parameter
      documention in Sphinx, Google, and Numpy style.

    * Detect undefined variable cases, where the "definition" of an undefined
      variable was in del statement. Instead of emitting used-before-assignment,
      which is totally misleading, it now emits undefined-variable.
      Closes issue #528.

    * Don't emit attribute-defined-outside-init and access-member-before-definition
      for mixin classes. Actual errors can occur in mixin classes, but this is
      controlled by the ignore-mixin-members option. Closes issue #412.

    * Improve the detection of undefined variables and variables used before
      assignment for variables used as default arguments to function,
      where the variable was first defined in the class scope.
      Closes issue #342 and issue #404.

    * Add a new warning, 'unexpected-special-method-signature', which is emitted
      when a special method (dunder method) doesn't have the expected signature,
      which can lead to actual errors in the application code.
      Closes issue #253.

    * Remove 'bad-context-manager' due to the inclusion of 'unexpected-special-method-signature'.

    * Don't emit no-name-in-module if the import is guarded by an ImportError, Exception or
      a bare except clause.

    * Don't emit no-member if the attribute access node is protected by an
      except handler, which handles AttributeError, Exception or it is a
      bare except.

    * Don't emit import-error if the import is guarded by an ImportError, Exception or a
      bare except clause.

    * Don't emit undefined-variable if the node is guarded by a NameError, Exception
      or bare except clause.

    * Add a new warning, 'using-constant-test', which is emitted when a conditional
      statement (If, IfExp) uses a test which is always constant, such as numbers,
      classes, functions etc. This is most likely an error from the user's part.
      Closes issue #524.

    * Don't emit 'raising-non-exception' when the exception has unknown
      bases. We don't know what those bases actually are and it's better
      to assume that the user knows what he is doing rather than emitting
      a message which can be considered a false positive.

    * Look for a .pylintrc configuration file in the current folder,
      if pylintrc is not found. Dotted pylintrc files will not be searched
      in the parents of the current folder, as it is done for pylintrc.

    * Add a new error, 'invalid-unary-type-operand', emitted when
      an unary operand is used on something which doesn't support that
      operation (for instance, using the unary bitwise inversion operator
      on an instance which doesn't implement __invert__).

    * Take in consideration differences between arguments of various
      type of functions (classmethods, staticmethods, properties)
      when checking for `arguments-differ`. Closes issue #548.

    * astroid.inspector was moved to pylint.pyreverse, since it belongs
      there and it doesn't need to be in astroid.

    * astroid.utils.LocalsVisitor was moved to pylint.pyreverse.LocalsVisitor.

    * pylint.checkers.utils.excepts_import_error was removed.
      Use pylint.chekcers.utils.error_of_type instead.

    * Don't emit undefined-all-variables for nodes which can't be
      inferred (YES nodes).

    * yield-outside-func is also emitted for `yield from`.

    * Add a new error, 'too-many-star-expressions', emitted when
      there are more than one starred expression (`*x`) in an assignment.
      The warning is emitted only on Python 3.

    * Add a new error, 'invalid-star-assignment-target', emitted when
      a starred expression (`*x`) is used as the lhs side of an assignment,
      as in `*x = [1, 2]`. This is not a SyntaxError on Python 3 though.

    * Detect a couple of objects which can't be base classes (bool,
      slice, range and memoryview, which weren't detected until now).

    * Add a new error for the Python 3 porting checker, `import-star-module-level`,
      which is used when a star import is detected in another scope than the
      module level, which is an error on Python 3. Using this will emit a
      SyntaxWarning on Python 2.

    * Add a new error, 'star-needs-assignment-target', emitted on Python 3 when
      a Starred expression (`*x`) is not used in an assignment target. This is not
      caught when parsing the AST on Python 3, so it needs to be a separate check.

    * Add a new error, 'unsupported-binary-operation', emitted when
      two a binary arithmetic operation is executed between two objects
      which don't support it (a number plus a string for instance).
      This is currently disabled, since the it exhibits way too many false
      positives, but it will be reenabled as soon as possible.

    * New imported features from astroid into pyreverse: pyreverse.inspector.Project,
      pyreverse.inspector.project_from_files and pyreverse.inspector.interfaces.

      These were moved since they didn't belong in astroid.

    * Enable misplaced-future for Python 3. Closes issue #580.

    * Add a new error, 'nonlocal-and-global', which is emitted when a
      name is found to be both nonlocal and global in the same scope.
      Closes issue #581.

    * ignored-classes option can work with qualified names (ignored-classes=optparse.Values)
      Closes issue #297.

    * ignored-modules can work with qualified names as well as with Unix pattern
      matching for recursive ignoring. Closes issues #244.

    * Improve detection of relative imports in non-packages, as well as importing
      missing modules with a relative import from a package.

    * Don't emit no-init if not all the bases from a class are known.
      Closes issue #604.

    * --no-space-check option accepts `empty-line` as a possible option.
      Closes issue #541.

    * --generate-rcfile generates by default human readable symbols
      for the --disable option. Closes issue #608.

    * Improved the not-in-loop checker to properly detect more cases.

    * Add a new error, 'continue-in-finally', which is emitted when
      the `continue` keyword is found inside a `finally` clause, which
      is a SyntaxError.

    * The --zope flag is deprecated and it is slated for removal
      in Pylint 1.6.

      The reason behind this removal is the fact that it's a specialized
      flag and there are solutions for the original problem:
      use --generated-members with the members that causes problems
      when using Zope or add AST transforms tailored to the zope
      project.

      At the same time, --include-ids and --symbols will also be removed
      in Pylint 1.6. Closes issue #570.

    * missing-module-attribute was removed and the corresponding
      CLI option, required-attributes, which is slated for removal
      in Pylint 1.6.

    * missing-reversed-argument was removed.

      The reason behind this is that this kind of errors should be
      detected by the type checker for *all* the builtins and not
      as a special case for the reversed builtin. This will happen
      shortly in the future.

    * --comment flag is obsolete and it will be removed in Pylint 1.6.

    * --profile flag is obsolete and it will be removed in Pylint 1.6.

    * Add a new error, 'misplaced-bare-raise'.

      The error is used when a bare raise is not used inside an except clause.
      This can generate a RuntimeError in Python, if there are no active exceptions
      to be reraised. While it works in Python 2 due to the fact that the exception
      leaks outside of the except block, it's nevertheless a behaviour that
      an user shouldn't depend upon, since it's not obvious to the reader of the code
      what exception will be raised and it will not be compatible with Python 3 anyhow.
      Closes issue #633.

    * Bring logilab-common's ureports into pylint.reporters.

      With this change, we moved away from depending on logilab-common,
      having in Pylint all the components that were used from logilab-common.
      The API should be considered an implementation detail and can change at
      some point in the future.
      Closes issue #621.

    * `reimported` is emitted for reimported objects on the same line.

      Closes issue #639.

    * Abbreviations of command line options are not supported anymore.

      Using abbreviations for CLI options was never considered to be
      a feature of pylint, this fact being only a side effect of using optparse.
      As this was the case, using --load-plugin or other abbreviation
      for --load-plugins never actually worked, while it also didn't raise
      an error. Closes issue #424.

    * Add a new error, 'nonlocal-without-binding'

      The error is emitted on Python 3 when a nonlocal name is not bound
      to any variable in the parents scopes. Closes issue #582.

    * 'deprecated-module' can be shown for modules which aren't
       available. Closes issue #362.

    * Don't consider a class abstract if its members can't
      be properly inferred.

      This fixes a false positive related to abstract-class-instantiated.
      Closes issue #648.

    * Add a new checker for the async features added by PEP 492.

    * Add a new error, 'yield-inside-async-function', emitted on
      Python 3.5 and upwards when the `yield` statement is found inside
      a new coroutine function (PEP 492).

    * Add a new error, 'not-async-context-manager', emitted when
      an async context manager block is used with an object which doesn't
      support this protocol (PEP 492).

    * Add a new convention warning, 'singleton-comparison', emitted when
      comparison to True, False or None is found.

    * Don't emit 'assigning-non-slot' for descriptors. Closes issue #652.

    * Add a new error, 'repeated-keyword', when a keyword argument is passed
      multiple times into a function call.

      This is similar with redundant-keyword-arg, but it's mildly different
      that it needs to be a separate error.

    * --enable=all can now be used. Closes issue #142.

    * Add a new convention message, 'misplaced-comparison-constant',
      emitted when a constant is placed in the left hand side of a comparison,
      as in '5 == func()'. This is also called Yoda condition, since the
      flow of code reminds of the Star Wars green character, conditions usually
      encountered in languages with variabile assignments in conditional
      statements.

    * Add a new convention message, 'consider-using-enumerate', which is
      emitted when code that uses `range` and `len` for iterating is encountered.
      Closes issue #684.

    * Added two new refactoring messages, 'no-classmethod-decorator' and
      'no-staticmethod-decorator', which are emitted when a static method or a class
      method is declared without using decorators syntax.

      Closes issue #675.

Update to 1.4.3
Update DEPENDS
Add test target

Upstream changes:
2015-03-14 -- 1.4.3

    * Remove three warnings: star-args, abstract-class-little-used,
      abstract-class-not-used. These warnings don't add any real value
      and they don't imply errors or problems in the code.

    * Added a new option for controlling the peephole optimizer in astroid.
      The option ``--optimize-ast`` will control the peephole optimizer,
      which is used to optimize a couple of AST subtrees. The current problem
      solved by the peephole optimizer is when multiple joined strings,
      with the addition operator, are encountered. If the numbers of such
      strings is high enough, Pylint will then fail with a maximum recursion
      depth exceeded error, due to its visitor architecture. The peephole
      just transforms such calls, if it can, into the final resulting string
      and this exhibit a problem, because the visit_binop method stops being
      called (in the optimized AST it will be a Const node).


2015-03-11 -- 1.4.2

    * Don't require a docstring for empty modules. Closes issue #261.

    * Fix a false positive with `too-few-format-args` string warning,
      emitted when the string format contained a normal positional
      argument ('{0}'), mixed with a positional argument which did
      an attribute access ('{0.__class__}').
      Closes issue #463.

    * Take in account all the methods from the ancestors
      when checking for too-few-public-methods. Closes issue #471.

    * Catch enchant errors and emit 'invalid-characters-in-docstring'
      when checking for spelling errors. Closes issue #469.

    * Use all the inferred statements for the super-init-not-called
      check. Closes issue #389.

    * Add a new warning, 'unichr-builtin', emitted by the Python 3
      porting checker, when the unichr builtin is found. Closes issue #472.

    * Add a new warning, 'intern-builtin', emitted by the Python 3
      porting checker, when the intern builtin is found. Closes issue #473.

    * Add support for editable installations.

    * The HTML output accepts the `--msg-template` option. Patch by
      Dan Goldsmith.

    * Add 'map-builtin-not-iterating' (replacing 'implicit-map-evaluation'),
      'zip-builtin-not-iterating', 'range-builtin-not-iterating', and
      'filter-builtin-not-iterating' which are emitted by `--py3k` when the
      appropriate built-in is not used in an iterating context (semantics
      taken from 2to3).

    * Add a new warning, 'unidiomatic-typecheck', emitted when an explicit
      typecheck uses type() instead of isinstance(). For example,
      `type(x) == Y` instead of `isinstance(x, Y)`. Patch by Chris Rebert.
      Closes issue #299.

    * Add support for combining the Python 3 checker mode with the --jobs
      flag (--py3k and --jobs). Closes issue #467.

    * Add a new warning for the Python 3 porting checker, 'using-cmp-argument',
      emitted when the `cmp` argument for the `list.sort` or `sorted builtin`
      is encountered.

    * Make the --py3k flag commutative with the -E flag. Also, this patch
      fixes the leaks of error messages from the Python 3 checker when
      the errors mode was activated. Closes issue #437.


2015-01-16 -- 1.4.1

    * Look only in the current function's scope for bad-super-call.
      Closes issue #403.

    * Check the return of properties when checking for not-callable.
      Closes issue #406.

    * Warn about using the input() or round() built-ins for Python 3.
      Closes issue #411.

    * Proper abstract method lookup while checking for
      abstract-class-instantiated. Closes issue #401.

    * Use a mro traversal for finding abstract methods. Closes issue #415.

    * Fix a false positive with catching-non-exception and tuples of
      exceptions.

    * Fix a false negative with raising-non-exception, when the raise used
      an uninferrable exception context.

    * Fix a false positive on Python 2 for raising-bad-type, when
      raising tuples in the form 'raise (ZeroDivisionError, None)'.

    * Fix a false positive with invalid-slots-objects, where the slot entry
      was an unicode string on Python 2. Closes issue #421.

    * Add a new warning, 'redundant-unittest-assert', emitted when using
      unittest's methods assertTrue and assertFalse with constant value
      as argument. Patch by Vlad Temian.

    * Add a new JSON reporter, usable through -f flag.

    * Add the method names for the 'signature-differs' and 'argument-differs'
      warnings. Closes issue #433.

    * Don't compile test files when installing.

    * Fix a crash which occurred when using multiple jobs and the files
      given as argument didn't exist at all.


2014-11-23 -- 1.4.0

    * Added new options for controlling the loading of C extensions.
      By default, only C extensions from the stdlib will be loaded
      into the active Python interpreter for inspection, because they
      can run arbitrary code on import. The option
      `--extension-pkg-whitelist` can be used to specify modules
      or packages that are safe to load.

    * Change default max-line-length to 100 rather than 80

    * Drop BaseRawChecker class which were only there for backward
      compat for a while now

    * Don't try to analyze string formatting with objects coming from
      function arguments. Closes issue #373.

    * Port source code to be Python 2/3 compatible. This drops the
      need for 2to3, but does drop support for Python 2.5.

    * Each message now comes with a confidence level attached, and
      can be filtered base on this level. This allows to filter out
      all messages that were emitted even though an inference failure
      happened during checking.

    * Improved presenting unused-import message. Closes issue #293.

    * Add new checker for finding spelling errors. New messages:
      wrong-spelling-in-comment, wrong-spelling-in-docstring.
      New options: spelling-dict, spelling-ignore-words.

    * Add new '-j' option for running checks in sub-processes.

    * Added new checks for line endings if they are mixed (LF vs CRLF)
      or if they are not as expected. New messages: mixed-line-endings,
      unexpected-line-ending-format. New option: expected-line-ending-format.

    * 'dangerous-default-value' no longer evaluates the value of the arguments,
      which could result in long error messages or sensitive data being leaked.
      Closes issue #282

    * Fix a false positive with string formatting checker, when
      encountering a string which uses only position-based arguments.
      Closes issue #285.

    * Fix a false positive with string formatting checker, when using
      keyword argument packing. Closes issue #288.

    * Proper handle class level scope for lambdas.

    * Handle 'too-few-format-args' or 'too-many-format-args' for format
      strings with both named and positional fields. Closes issue #286.

    * Analyze only strings by the string format checker. Closes issue #287.

    * Properly handle nested format string fields. Closes issue #294.

    * Don't emit 'attribute-defined-outside-init' if the attribute
      was set by a function call in a defining method. Closes issue #192.

    * Properly handle unicode format strings for Python 2.
      Closes issue #296.

    * Don't emit 'import-error' if an import was protected by a try-except,
      which excepted ImportError.

    * Fix an 'unused-import' false positive, when the error was emitted
      for all the members imported with 'from import' form.
      Closes issue #304.

    * Don't emit 'invalid-name' when assigning a name in an
      ImportError handler. Closes issue #302.

    * Don't count branches from nested functions.

    * Fix a false positive with 'too-few-format-args', when the format
      strings contains duplicate manual position arguments.
      Closes issue #310.

    * fixme regex handles comments without spaces after the hash.
      Closes issue #311.

    * Don't emit 'unused-import' when a special object is imported
      (__all__, __doc__ etc.). Closes issue #309.

    * Look in the metaclass, if defined, for members not found in the current
      class. Closes issue #306.

    * Don't emit 'protected-access' if the attribute is accessed using
      a property defined at the class level.

    * Detect calls of the parent's __init__, through a binded super() call.

    * Check that a class has an explicitly defined metaclass before
      emitting 'old-style-class' for Python 2.

    * Emit 'catching-non-exception' for non-class nodes. Closes issue #303.

    * Order of reporting is consistent.

    * Add a new warning, 'boolean-datetime', emitted when an instance
      of 'datetime.time' is used in a boolean context. Closes issue #239.

    * Fix a crash which ocurred while checking for 'method-hidden',
      when the parent frame was something different than a function.

    * Generate html output for missing files. Closes issue #320.

    * Fix a false positive with 'too-many-format-args', when the format
      string contains mixed attribute access arguments and manual
      fields. Closes issue #322.

    * Extend the cases where 'undefined-variable' and 'used-before-assignment'
      can be detected. Closes issue #291.

    * Add support for customising callback identifiers, by adding a new
      '--callbacks' command line option. Closes issue #326.

    * Add a new warning, 'logging-format-interpolation', emitted when .format()
      string interpolation is used within logging function calls.

    * Don't emit 'unbalanced-tuple-unpacking' when the rhs of the assignment
      is a variable length argument. Closes issue #329.

    * Add a new warning, 'inherit-non-class', emitted when a class inherits
      from something which is not a class. Closes issue #331.

    * Fix another false positives with 'undefined-variable', where the variable
      can be found as a class assignment and used in a function annotation.
      Closes issue #342.

    * Handle assignment of the string format method to a variable.
      Closes issue #351.

    * Support wheel packaging format for PyPi. Closes issue #334.

    * Check that various built-ins that do not exist in Python 3 are not
      used: apply, basestring, buffer, cmp, coerce, execfile, file, long
      raw_input, reduce, StandardError, unicode, reload and xrange.

    * Warn for magic methods which are not used in any way in Python 3:
      __coerce__, __delslice__, __getslice__, __setslice__, __cmp__,
      __oct__, __nonzero__ and __hex__.

    * Don't emit 'assigning-non-slot' when the assignment is for a property.
      Closes issue #359.

    * Fix for regression: '{path}' was no longer accepted in '--msg-template'.

    * Report the percentage of all messages, not just for errors and warnings.
      Closes issue #319.

    * 'too-many-public-methods' is reported only for methods defined in a class,
      not in its ancestors. Closes issue #248.

    * 'too-many-lines' disable pragma can be located on any line, not only the
      first. Closes issue #321.

    * Warn in Python 2 when an import statement is found without a
      corresponding `from __future__ import absolute_import`.

    * Warn in Python 2 when a non-floor division operation is found without
      a corresponding `from __future__ import division`.

    * Add a new option, 'exclude-protected', for excluding members
      from the protected-access warning. Closes issue #48.

    * Warn in Python 2 when using dict.iter*(), dict.view*(); none of these
      methods are available in Python 3.

    * Warn in Python 2 when calling an object's next() method; Python 3 uses
      __next__() instead.

    * Warn when assigning to __metaclass__ at a class scope; in Python 3 a
      metaclass is specified as an argument to the 'class' statement.

    * Warn when performing parameter tuple unpacking; it is not supported in
      Python 3.

    * 'abstract-class-instantiated' is also emitted for Python 2.
      It was previously disabled.

    * Add 'long-suffix' error, emitted when encountering the long suffix
      on numbers.

    * Add support for disabling a checker, by specifying an 'enabled'
      attribute on the checker class.

    * Add a new CLI option, --py3k, for enabling Python 3 porting mode. This
      mode will disable all other checkers and will emit warnings and
      errors for constructs which are invalid or removed in Python 3.

    * Add 'old-octal-literal' to Python 3 porting checker, emitted when
      encountering octals with the old syntax.

    * Add 'implicit-map-evaluation' to Python 3 porting checker, emitted
      when encountering the use of map builtin, without explicit evaluation.



2014-07-26  --  1.3.0

    * Allow hanging continued indentation for implicitly concatenated
      strings. Closes issue #232.

    * Pylint works under Python 2.5 again, and its test suite passes.

    * Fix some false positives for the cellvar-from-loop warnings.
      Closes issue #233.

    * Return new astroid class nodes when the inferencer can detect that
      that result of a function invocation on a type (like `type` or
      `abc.ABCMeta`) is requested. Closes #205.

    * Emit 'undefined-variable' for undefined names when using the
      Python 3 `metaclass=` argument.

    * Checkers respect priority now. Close issue #229.

    * Fix a false positive regarding W0511. Closes issue #149.

    * Fix unused-import false positive with Python 3 metaclasses (#143).

    * Don't warn with 'bad-format-character' when encountering
      the 'a' format on Python 3.

    * Add multiple checks for PEP 3101 advanced string formatting:
      'bad-format-string', 'missing-format-argument-key',
      'unused-format-string-argument', 'format-combined-specification',
      'missing-format-attribute' and 'invalid-format-index'.

    * Issue broad-except and bare-except even if the number
      of except handlers is different than 1. Fixes issue #113.

    * Issue attribute-defined-outside-init for all cases, not just
      for the last assignment. Closes issue #262.

    * Emit 'not-callable' when calling properties. Closes issue #268.

    * Fix a false positive with unbalanced iterable unpacking,
      when encountering starred nodes. Closes issue #273.

    * Add new checks, 'invalid-slice-index' and 'invalid-sequence-index'
      for invalid sequence and slice indices.

    * Add 'assigning-non-slot' warning, which detects assignments to
      attributes not defined in slots.

    * Don't emit 'no-name-in-module' for ignored modules.
      Closes issue #223.

    * Fix an 'unused-variable' false positive, where the variable is
      assigned through an import. Closes issue #196.

    * Definition order is considered for classes, function arguments
      and annotations. Closes issue #257.

    * Don't emit 'unused-variable' when assigning to a nonlocal.
      Closes issue #275.

    * Do not let ImportError propagate from the import checker, leading to crash
      in some namespace package related cases. Closes issue #203.

    * Don't emit 'pointless-string-statement' for attribute docstrings.
      Closes issue #193.

    * Use the proper mode for pickle when opening and writing the stats file.
      Closes issue #148.

    * Don't emit hidden-method message when the attribute has been
      monkey-patched, you're on your own when you do that.

    * Only emit attribute-defined-outside-init for definition within the same
      module as the offended class, avoiding to mangle the output in some cases.

    * Don't emit 'unnecessary-lambda' if the body of the lambda call contains
      call chaining. Closes issue #243.

      an exception occurs in Python 2 (behaviour removed in Python 3).



2014-04-18  --  1.2.0
    * Pass the current python paths to pylint process when invoked via
      epylint.  Fixes BitBucket issue #133.

    * Add -i / --include-ids and -s / --symbols back as completely ignored
      options. Fixes BitBucket issue #180.

    * Extend the number of cases in which logging calls are detected. Fixes
      bitbucket issue #182.

    * Improve pragma handling to not detect pylint:* strings in non-comments.
      Fixes BitBucket issue #79.

    * Do not crash with UnknownMessage if an unknown message ID/name appears
      in disable or enable in the configuration. Patch by Cole Robinson.

    * Add new warning 'eval-used', checking that the builtin function `eval`
      was used.

    * Make it possible to show a naming hint for invalid name by setting
      include-naming-hint. Also make the naming hints configurable. Fixes
      BitBucket issue #138.

    * Added support for enforcing multiple, but consistent name styles for
      different name types inside a single module; based on a patch written
      by morbo@google.com.

    * Also warn about empty docstrings on overridden methods; contributed
      by sebastianu@google.com.

    * Also inspect arguments to constructor calls, and emit relevant
      warnings; contributed by sebastianu@google.com.

    * Added a new configuration option logging-modules to make the list
      of module names that can be checked for 'logging-not-lazy' et. al.
      configurable; contributed by morbo@google.com.

    * ensure init-hooks is evaluated before other options, notably load-plugins
      (#166)

    * Python 2.5 support restored: fixed small issues preventing pylint to run
      on python 2.5. Bitbucket issues #50 and #62.

    * bitbucket #128: pylint doesn't crash when looking
      for used-before-assignment in context manager
      assignments.

    * Add new warning, 'bad-reversed-sequence', for checking that the
      reversed() builtin receive a sequence (implements __getitem__ and __len__,

      for 'nonlocal' uses.

    * Emit 'undefined-all-variable' if a package's __all__
      variable contains a missing submodule (closes #126).

    * Add a new warning 'abstract-class-instantiated' for checking
      that abstract classes created with `abc` module and
      with abstract methods are instantied.

    * Do not warn about 'return-arg-in-generator' in Python 3.3+.

    * Do not warn about 'abstract-method' when the abstract method
      is implemented through assignment (#155).

Import py27-pylint-1.1.0 as devel/py-pylint.

Pylint is a Python source code analyzer which looks for programming
errors, helps enforcing a coding standard and sniffs for some code
smells (as defined in Martin Fowler's Refactoring book).
Pylint can be seen as another PyChecker since nearly all tests you
can do with PyChecker can also be done with Pylint. However, Pylint
offers some more features, like checking length of lines of code,
checking if variable names are well-formed according to your coding
standard, or checking if declared interfaces are truly implemented,
and much more. . Additionally, it is possible to write plugins to
add your own checks.

This form allows you to request diff's between any two revisions of a file. You may select a symbolic revision name using the selection box or you may type in a numeric name using the type-in text box.
