Hello world,
I recently switched from Kate to KDevelop as my Python code editor.
The only thing I'm missing is that with Kate each time I saved my code it was highlighted with the output of Pyflakes and PEP8.
I know that having the highlight is maybe too much but I'd be happy to be notified in some way if my code is not ok.
I have already added the PEP8 and Pyflakes scripts to check the current source, but I have to call them manually and check the results in the lower shell.
Is there a way to launch them automatically and be notified if something goes wrong?

Thank you,
Fabry

You can't launch them on save currently, but you can enable the checker to run whenever you edit a file (see Cofigure KDevelop -> Python style checking). Does that suffice for your usecase? Let me know otherwise

Greetings!

Thanks scummos.
I haven't configured it correctly and now the PEP8 works.
Is there anything similar for Pyflakes?

Fabrizio

No. We're eventually going to get some similar checks based on our own architecture, though, let's see.

Greetings!

PEP8 and Pyflakes have a quite similar output.
Where can I look in the source to understand the right output?
I'd like to create a single script that returns the output of both programs.

Fabrizio

PS: in the source of the PEP8 checker I have seen that the variable "pap8arguments" has a typo. I think it should be pep8arguments

In git://anongit.kde.org/kdev-python in pythonparsejob.cpp around line 315.

Eventually this should all be integrated into a separate, more flexible checker plugin, maybe I'll write something like that.
