Flake8 plugin to validate annotations complexity

Overview

flake8-annotations-complexity

Build Status Maintainability Test Coverage PyPI - Python Version

An extension for flake8 to report on too complex type annotations.

Complex type annotations often means bad annotations usage, wrong code decomposition or improper data structure choice. They are also hard to read and make code look java-like.

Annotation complexity is maximum annotation nesting level. So List[int] complexity is 2 and Tuple[List[Optional[str]], int] is 4.

Default max annotation complexity is 3 and can be configured via --max-annotations-complexity option.

Installation

pip install flake8-annotations-complexity

Example

Sample file:

# test.py

def foo() -> List[int]:
    return [1]

Usage:

$ flake8 --max-annotations-complexity=1 test.py
test.py:4:14: TAE002 too complex annotation (2 > 1)

    0.0.6 release

    Hi, thank you for this awesome plugin! Please consider creatng a new release that contains the changes introduced in the PR #14. Otherwise, the latest release on PyPI (0.0.5) raises on Python 3.9, forcing us to resort to install from source repo.

    Привет, ребята! Спасибо за отличный плагин к flake8! К сожалению, текущая версия на PyPI (0.0.5) кидает исключение в связке с Python 3.9 - фикс уже есть в основной ветке (PR #14). Прошу выпустить новую версию 0.0.6, содержащую этот фикс - пока приходится устанавливать плагин с мастер-ветки репозитория.

    Variable annotations are ignored

    Here you only check function annotations: https://github.com/best-doctor/flake8-annotations-complexity/blob/master/flake8_annotations_complexity/ast_helpres.py#L17-L20

    However, it is still possible to use really complex variable annotations:

    Exception with Literal[""]

    An exception is thrown if running flake8 and it finds an empty string in a Literal definition.

    To Reproduce I wrote the test for it, so see that: https://github.com/best-doctor/flake8-annotations-complexity/pull/11

    According PEP 3107 we can use any expression in annotations. Annotations like this:

    def foo() -> 'String Annontation':
        pass
    

    raises syntax error due to impossibility AST parsing this string:

    Empty tuple annotation causes crash

    I have some functions that deal with unions where one variant is the empty tuple. Per https://github.com/python/mypy/issues/4211, the way to represent the empty tuple type is typing.Tuple[()]. Using this annotation crashes flake8-annotations-complexity with the following traceback:

    annotation_len compares with constant 7 and not max_annotation_len :( But max_annotation_len is used in error message formatting.

  • Add max complexity configuration from file

    Add max complexity configuration from file

    Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The only documented method for configuring the max complexity is a command line switch. It is difficult to enforce a common standard in a shared codebase, or ensure CI is using the correct settings this way.

    Describe the solution you'd like A configuration option I can put in pyproject.toml to ensure the setting I desire is respected for all callers of flake8 in my repo.

    Describe alternatives you've considered Do nothing. Easiest, but it doesn't address the issue.
