Pylint is a source code, bug and quality checker for the Python programming language. It follows the style recommended by PEP 8, the Python style guide.[4] It is similar to Pychecker and Pyflakes, but includes the following features:
- Checking the length of each line
- Checking if variable names are well-formed according to the project's coding standard
- Checking if declared interfaces are truly implemented.[5]
It is also equipped with the Pyreverse module that allows UML diagrams to be generated from Python code.
It can be used as a stand-alone program, but also integrates with IDEs such as Eclipse with PyDev[6] and Visual Studio,[7] and editors such as Atom[8] and Vim.
It has received favourable reviews.[9][10][11]
