Package: nitpick
Command-line tool andflake8plugin to enforce the same settings across multiple language-independent
projects.Useful if you maintain multiple projects and are tired of
copying/pasting the same INI/TOML/YAML/JSON keys and values over and
over, in all of them.The CLI now has anitpick fixcommand that modifies configuration
files directly (pretty much likeblackandisortdo with Python files).
See theCLI docs for more
info.Many more features are planned for the future, checkthe
roadmap.The style fileA “Nitpick code style” is aTOMLfile with the settings that should be present in config files from other
tools.Example of a style:["pyproject.toml".tool.black]line-length=120["pyproject.toml".tool.poetry.dev-dependencies]pylint="*"["setup.cfg".flake8]ignore="D107,D202,D203,D401"max-line-length=120inline-quotes="double"["setup.cfg".isort]line_length=120multi_line_output=3include_trailing_comma=trueforce_grid_wrap=0combine_as_imports=trueThis style will assert that:…black,isortandflake8have a line length of
120;…flake8andisortare configured as above insetup.cfg;…Pylintis present as aPoetrydev dependency
inpyproject.toml.Supported file typesThese are the file types currently handled by Nitpick.Some files are only being checked and have to be modified manually;Some files can already be fixed automatically (with thenitpick fixcommand);Others are still under construction; the ticket numbers are shown in
the table (upvote the ticket with 👍🏻 if you would like to prioritise
development).ImplementedFile typenitpick checknitpick fixAny INI file✅✅Any JSON file✅✅Any plain text file✅❌Any TOML file✅✅Any YAML file✅✅.editorconfig✅✅.pylintrc✅✅setup.cfg✅✅PlannedFile typenitpick checknitpick fixAny Markdown file#280🚧❓Any Terraform file#318🚧❓Dockerfile#272🚧#272🚧.dockerignore#8🚧#8🚧.gitignore#8🚧#8🚧Jenkinsfile#278🚧❓Makefile#277🚧❓Style Library (Presets)Nitpick has a builtin library of style presets, shipped asPython resources.This library contains building blocks for your your custom style.

Run this command to download and use the opinionateddefault style file <nitpick-style.toml>:nitpick initYou can use it as a template toconfigure-your-own-style.To fix and modify your files directly:nitpick fixTo check for errors only:nitpick checkNitpick is also aflake8plugin, so you can run this on a project with at least one Python (.py) file:flake8 .Run as a pre-commit hookIf you usepre-commiton your project, add
this to the.pre-commit-config.yamlin your repository:repos:
  - repo: https://github.com/andreoliwa/nitpick
