mozlint.parser module

class mozlint.parser.Parser

Bases: object

Reads and validates lint configuration files.

parse(path)

Read a linter and return its LINTER definition.

Parameters:path – Path to the linter.
Returns:List of linter definitions ([dict])
Raises:LinterNotFound, LinterParseError
required_attributes = ('name', 'description', 'type', 'payload')

mozlint.pathutils module

class mozlint.pathutils.FilterPath(path, exclude=None)

Bases: object

Helper class to make comparing and matching file paths easier.

contains(other)

Return True if other is a subdirectory of self or equals self.

mozlint.pathutils.ancestors(path)
mozlint.pathutils.filterpaths(paths, linter, **lintargs)

Filters a list of paths.

Given a list of paths, and a linter definition plus extra arguments, return the set of paths that should be linted.

Parameters:
  • paths – A starting list of paths to possibly lint.
  • linter – A linter definition.
  • lintargs – Extra arguments passed to the linter.
Returns:

A list of file paths to lint.
mozlint.pathutils.findobject(path)

Find a Python object given a path of the form <modulepath>:<objectpath>. Conceptually equivalent to

def find_object(modulepath, objectpath):
import <modulepath> as mod return mod.<objectpath>
mozlint.pathutils.get_ancestors_by_name(name, path, root)

Returns a list of files called name in path’s ancestors, sorted from closest->furthest. This can be useful for finding relevant configuration files.

mozlint.result module

class mozlint.result.ResultContainer(linter, path, message, lineno, column=None, hint=None, source=None, level=None, rule=None, lineoffset=None)

Bases: object

Represents a single lint error and its related metadata.

Parameters:
  • linter – name of the linter that flagged this error
  • path – path to the file containing the error
  • message – text describing the error
  • lineno – line number that contains the error
  • column – column containing the error
  • level – severity of the error, either ‘warning’ or ‘error’ (default ‘error’)
  • hint – suggestion for fixing the error (optional)
  • source – source code context of the error (optional)
  • rule – name of the rule that was violated (optional)
  • lineoffset – denotes an error spans multiple lines, of the form (<lineno offset>, <num lines>) (optional)

class mozlint.result.ResultEncoder(skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, check_circular=True, allow_nan=True, sort_keys=False, indent=None, separators=None, encoding='utf-8', default=None)

Bases: json.encoder.JSONEncoder

Class for encoding :class:`~result.ResultContainer`s to json.

Usage:

json.dumps(results, cls=ResultEncoder)
default(o)
mozlint.result.from_config(config, **kwargs)

Create a ResultContainer from a linter config.

Convenience method that pulls defaults from a linter config and forwards them.

Parameters:
  • config – linter config as defined in a .yml file
  • kwargs – same as ResultContainer
Returns:

ResultContainer object

mozlint.roller module

class mozlint.roller.LintRoller(root, **lintargs)

Bases: object

Registers and runs linters.

Parameters:
  • root – Path to which relative paths will be joined. If unspecified, root will either be determined from version control or cwd.
  • lintargs – Arguments to pass to the underlying linter(s).
read(paths)

Parse one or more linters and add them to the registry.

Parameters:paths – A path or iterable of paths to linter definitions.
roll(paths=None, outgoing=None, workdir=None, num_procs=None)

Run all of the registered linters against the specified file paths.

Parameters:
  • paths – An iterable of files and/or directories to lint.
  • outgoing – Lint files touched by commits that are not on the remote repository.
  • workdir – Lint all files touched in the working directory.
  • num_procs – The number of processes to use. Default: cpu count
Returns:

A dictionary with file names as the key, and a list of :class:`~result.ResultContainer`s as the value.

mozlint.types module

class mozlint.types.BaseType

Bases: object

Abstract base class for all types of linters.

batch = False
class mozlint.types.ExternalType

Bases: mozlint.types.BaseType

Linter type that runs an external function.

The function is responsible for properly formatting the results into a list of ResultContainer objects.

batch = True
class mozlint.types.LineType

Bases: mozlint.types.BaseType

Abstract base class for linter types that check each line individually.

Subclasses of this linter type will read each file and check the provided payload against each line one by one.

condition(payload, line)
class mozlint.types.LintHandler(config)

Bases: mozlog.reader.LogHandler

lint(data)
class mozlint.types.RegexType

Bases: mozlint.types.LineType

Linter type that checks whether a regex match is found.

condition(payload, line)
class mozlint.types.StringType

Bases: mozlint.types.LineType

Linter type that checks whether a substring is found.

condition(payload, line)
class mozlint.types.StructuredLogType

Bases: mozlint.types.BaseType

batch = True
mozlint.types.supported_types = {u'regex': <mozlint.types.RegexType object>, u'structured_log': <mozlint.types.StructuredLogType object>, u'string': <mozlint.types.StringType object>, u'external': <mozlint.types.ExternalType object>}
