NAME
pyflakes - simple Python source checker
SYNOPSIS
pyflakes [file-or-directory ...]
DESCRIPTION
Pyflakes is a simple program which checks Python source files for
errors. It is similar to PyChecker in scope, but differs in that it
does not execute the modules to check them. This is both safer and
faster, although it does not perform as many checks. Unlike PyLint,
Pyflakes checks only for logical errors in programs; it does not
perform any checks on style.
All commandline arguments are checked, which have to be either regular
files or directories. If a directory is given, every .py file within
will be checked.
When no commandline arguments are given, data will be read from
standard input.
OUTPUT
Found warnings including unused importes, undefined variables and
unnecessary reimports, are printed on standard output. Found errors
including compile or encoding errors, are printed on standard error.
EXIT STATUS
The exit status is 0 when no warnings or errors are found. When errors
are found the exit status is 2. When warnings (but no errors) are found
the exit status is 1.
