.TH PYCHECKER 1 "March 21, 2003" "" "" .SH NAME \fBpychecker \fP- program to check python scripts for common mistakes .SH SYNOPSIS .nf .fam C \fBpychecker\fP [\fIoptions\fP] files\.\.\. .fam T .fi .SH DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the \fBpychecker\fP command. It was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. .PP \fBpychecker\fP is a program that finds common bugs in python source code. It finds problems that are typically caught by a compiler for less dynamic languages, like C and C++. Because of the dynamic nature of python, some warnings may be incorrect; however, spurious warnings should be fairly infrequent. .PP \fBpychecker\fP works in a combination of ways. First, it imports each module. If there is an import error, the module cannot be processed. The import provides some basic information about the module. The code for each function, class, and method is checked for possible problems. .SH OPTIONS Long \fIoptions\fP can be preceded with no- to turn off (e.g., no-namedargs) .PP Major Options: .TP .B \fB-e\fP, \fB--errors\fP turn off all warnings which are not likely errors .TP .B \fB--complexity\fP turn off all warnings which are related to complexity .TP .B \fB-F\fP, \fB--config\fP specify .pycheckrc file to use .PP Error Control: .TP .B \fB-i\fP, \fB--import\fP unused imports [on] -k, \fB--pkgimport\fP unused imports from __init__.py [on] \fB-M\fP, \fB--reimportself\fP module imports
