Changelog

### 2.4.3 ``` =========================== 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. * Refactor file checking Remove code duplication from file checking. * Fix an issue with ``unnecessary-comprehension`` in comprehensions with additional repacking of elements. Close 3148 * ``import-outside-toplevel`` is emitted for ``ImportFrom`` nodes as well. Close 3175 * Do not emit ``no-method-argument`` for functions using positional only args. Close 3161 * ``consider-using-sys-exit`` is no longer emitted when `exit` is imported in the local scope. Close 3147 * `invalid-overridden-method` takes `abc.abstractproperty` in account Close 3150 * Fixed ``missing-yield-type-doc`` getting incorrectly raised when a generator does not document a yield type but has a type annotation. Closes 3185 * ``typing.overload`` functions are exempted from ``too-many-function-args`` Close 3170 ``` ### 2.4.2 ``` =========================== Release date: 2019-09-30 * ``ignored-modules`` can skip submodules. Close 3135 * ``self-assigning-variable`` skips class level assignments. Close 2930 * ``consider-using-sys-exit`` is exempted when `exit()` is imported from `sys` Close 3145 * Exempt annotated assignments without variable from ``class-variable-slots-conflict`` Close 3141 * 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. Close 3028 ``` ### 2.4.1 ``` =========================== Release date: 2019-09-25 * Exempt type checking definitions defined in both clauses of a type checking guard Close 3127 * 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. Close 3119 * Require astroid >= 2.3 to avoid any compatibility issues. ``` ### 2.4.0 ``` =========================== Release date: 2019-09-24 * 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`` Close 2752 * Removed Python 2 specific checks such as ``relative-import``, ``invalid-encoded-data``, ``missing-super-argument``. * Support forward references for ``function-redefined`` check. Close 2540 * Handle redefinitions in case of type checking imports. Close 2834 * 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. Close 2925 * ``useless-suppression`` check now ignores ``cyclic-import`` suppressions, which could lead to false postiives due to incomplete context at the time of the check. Close 3064 * Added new checks, ``no-else-break`` and ``no-else-continue`` These checks highlight unnecessary ``else`` and ``elif`` blocks after ``break`` and ``continue`` statements. Close 2327 * Don't emit ``protected-access`` when a single underscore prefixed attribute is used inside a special method Close 1802 * 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. Close 2670 * 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. Close 2975 * 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. Close 2898 * 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`` Close 2918 * 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. Close 2930 * Added a new check, ``property-with-parameters``. This check is emitted when we detect that a defined property also has parameters, which are useless. Close 3006 * Excluded protocol classes from a couple of checks. Close 3002. * 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. Close 2905 * Excluded PEP 526 instance and class variables from ``no-member``. Close 2945 * Excluded `attrs` from `too-few-public-methods` check. Close 2988. * ``unused-import`` emitted for the right import names in function scopes. Close 2928 * Dropped support for Python 3.4. * ``assignment-from-no-return`` not triggered for async methods. Close 2902 * Don't emit ``attribute-defined-outside-init`` for variables defined in setters. Close 409 * Syntax errors report the column number. Close 2914 * Support fully qualified typing imports for type annotations. Close 2915 * Exclude ``__dict__`` from ``attribute-defined-outside-init`` * Fix pointer on spelling check when the error are more than one time in the same line. Close 2895 * 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. Close 2848 * When we can't infer bare except handlers, skip ``try-except-raise`` Close 2853 * Handle more `unnecessary-lambda` cases when dealing with additional kwargs in wrapped calls Close 2845 * Better postponed evaluation of annotations handling Close 2847 * Support postponed evaluation of annotations for variable annotations. Close 2838 * ``epylint.py_run`` defaults to ``python`` in case the current executable is not a Python one. Close 2837 * Ignore raw doc
