Pyssla is a rule-based source code analyzer for Python.

Introduction

TL;DR: Pyssla will check if your Python code is decent shape.

Pyssla will analyse Python code and see if it conforms to a set of rules. There are rules for all kinds of different things ranging from naming of local variables to cyclomatic complexity.

For a complete list of rules, see RULES.md.

Install

Install it from PyPi:

$ pip install pyssla

Usage

Run pyssla against your python files:

$ pyssla ../pyflakes/pyflakes/*.py
