PyInspector - Python Code Analyzer

Overview

This script analyses Python files in a specified directory using pylint and flake8 to check for coding standards, errors, and style issues.

• pylint: more comprehensive and strict, outputs a score (checks for PEP 8 standard, programming errors, code smells, refactoring etc.)
• flake8: faster and simpler, good for CI/CD (checks for logical errors, PEP 8, Cycolmatic (McCabe) Complexity etc.)

• pylint
• flake8

Either:

1. Install globally using brew: brew install pylint flake8
2. Install in a venv using pip: pip install -r requirements.txt

Run

• Alter the directory in main to any folder of Python files you would like to analyse
• Results will be output in the terminal
