Overview

A tool to inspect your Python projects for code smells using pylint.

A tool to validate your GitHub action files using actionlint.

This tool has been tested against the following:

  1. GitHub Actions
  2. Travis CI
  3. CircleCI
  4. BitBucket pipelines
  5. Local command line

However due to the way that they are built they should work on most CICD platforms where you can run arbitrary scripts.

We provide a script which pulls the latest copy of all the CICD tools and places them in a local bin directory to allow them to be run any time locally for added validation.

Basic Usage

on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    name: Pylint
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: Checkout the Repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: Set up Python 3.12
        uses: actions/setup-python@v5
        with:
          python-version: "3.12"

      - name: Run Pylint
        run: bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CICDToolbox/pylint/master/pipeline.sh)

Configuration Options

The following environment variables can be set in order to customise the script.

Name Default Value Purpose
INCLUDE_FILES Unset A comma separated list of files to include for being scanned. You can also use regex to do pattern matching.
EXCLUDE_FILES Unset A comma separated list of files to exclude from being scanned. You can also use regex to do pattern matching.
NO_COLOR False Turn off the color in the output.
REPORT_ONLY False Generate the report but do not fail the build even if an error occurred.
SHOW_ERRORS True Show the actual errors instead of just which files had errors.
SHOW_SKIPPED False Show which files are being skipped.

If you set INCLUDE_FILES - it will skip ALL files that do not match, including anything in EXCLUDE_FILES.

You can use any combination of the above settings.
