Auto PEP8 your source code

There is an utility to auto pep8 your source code. I guess this would go hand in hand with the current "remove trailing spaces". It could be nice if that could be done directly in spyder. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/autopep8

Sounds interesting but someone will have to stand up to implement it. It shouldn't be too hard to do it though :)

What's the purpose of https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/source/browse/pep8.py ?

I made a plugin for autopep8 (see attached file). This is my first experience with spyder code and it's mainly copy-paste. It was tested on python 2.7 and python 3.3. It runs with the default options.

I still have a few problems:

• I did not find how to enable undoing the changes (with ctrl+Z)
• on Arch Linux the bundled pep8 version was too old to be compatible with arch autopep8. I guess compatible versions should be put in external-py2 and external-py3 (autopep8 is compatible with both python versions without modifications) to avoid this kind of problem.

I forgot a third problem:

• how to stop loading the plugin if no autopep8 module is found ? Note that this won't be a problem if autopep8 is embedded like pep8.

No answers ? Is my code that bad ? ^^

Sorry, I overlooked it. Thanks for pinging us again. I'll take a look at it later today.

Giving the increasing interest in adding Spyder plugins, one solution would be to add them to PyPi until they are mature enough.

I can put it on pypi, but it won't work if installed with pip, the file has to be put in the right spyder subfolder. github may be a better compromise ?

I created a github repo for the plugin : https://github.com/Nodd/spyder_autopep8 .

Is there another way to install plugins other than putting the files in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderplugins/ (or equivalent) ? Something like ~/.spyder2/plugins would be useful.

I found solutions to my basic problems. It should be usable now.

[goanpeca]

@Nodd do you want to make your plugin more like a package? I had already started to do it here

@ccordoba12, should we make an additional repo for this plugin inside spyder-ide repo? It could also be useful as an example of how to make such plugins.

[ccordoba12]

It depends on @Nodd :-)

[Nodd]

Yes, it should be made as a package, but only when spyder will be able to load plugins from a directory in spyderplugins.

[goanpeca]

@ccordoba12 have you made any progress in this direction ?

[Nodd]

For information I just started working on spyderplugins. I'll soon create a PR to discuss about it.

[ccordoba12]

@goanpeca, nop, I'm in review mode these days :-)

[Nodd]

Then you can start reviewing #2362 !

There is a working external plugin for spyder 3.0 (incoming!) at https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder.autopep8
