Description
pycodestyle has accepted our patch to support W505 warnings for long docstrings. Flake8 now needs to be modified to allow the max docstring length to be included and propagated to pycodestyle. This is necessary because all of our checks rely on flake8 to call pycodestyle. The required steps are:
- Beg pycodestyle to make a release with W505 enabled.
- Make a pull request for flake8 adding the new functionality.
- Update our pycodestyle EUPS package (or patch it locally).
- Apply the patch locally to our flake8 package until a new flake8 release is made.
I did some work on this, although it's a bit tricky to test it out, because you really need a release of pycodestyle to adequately test it out.
