An extension for flake8 that helps to make more readable variables names.
We believe, that variable name should unmistakably shows, what it contains.
Thats why we try not to use varnames with only one symbol or not to use
too common names, such as result
, value
or info
.
This extensions helps to detect such names. By default it works in
non-strict mode. You can change it with --use-varnames-strict-mode
parameter end extend variable names blacklist even more.
pip install flake8-variables-names
Sample file:
# test.py
a = 1
foo = 2
result = a + foo
Usage:
$ flake8 test.py
test.py:1:1: VNE001 single letter variable names are not allowed
test.py:2:1: VNE002 variable name should be clarified
Tested on Python 3.6 and flake8 3.5.0.
