[`flake8`](https://github.com/pycqa/flake8) checking for jupyter notebooks.
This tool is mainly aimed towards writing tutorials/lecture material, where one might also want
to show off bad practices and/or errors, while still keeping the rest of the code clean and
without adding the complexity of tooling to the readers
(see [docs on cell tags](https://flake8-nb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#cell-tags)).
Basically this is a hack on the `flake8`'s `Application` class,
which adds parsing and a cell based formatter for `*.ipynb` files.
This is **NOT A PLUGIN** but a stand alone CLI tool/[pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) hook to be used instead of the `flake8` command/hook.
## Features
- flake8 CLI tests for jupyter notebooks
- Full base functionality of `flake8` and its plugins
- Input cell based error formatting (Execution count/code cell count/total cellcount)
- Report fine tuning with cell-tags (`flake8-noqa-tags` see [usage](https://flake8-nb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html#cell-tags))
- [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) hook
## Examples
## Default reporting
If you had a notebook with name `example_notebook.ipynb`, where the code cell
which was executed as 34th cell (`In[34]`) had the following code:
```python
bad_formatted_dict = {"missing":"space"}
```
running `flake8_nb` would result in the following output.
### Execution count
```bash
$ flake8_nb example_notebook.ipynb
example_notebook.ipynb#In[34]:1:31: E231 missing whitespace after ':'
```
## Custom reporting
If you prefer the reports to show the cell number rather then the execution count you
can use the `--notebook-cell-format` option, given that the cell is the 5th `code` cell
and 10th total cell (taking `raw` and `markdown` cells into account),
you will get the following output.
### Code cell count
```bash
$ flake8_nb --notebook-cell-format '{nb_path}:code_cell#{code_cell_count}' example_notebook.ipynb
example_notebook.ipynb:code_cell#5:1:31: E231 missing whitespace after ':'
```
### Total cell count
```bash
$ flake8_nb --notebook-cell-format '{nb_path}:cell#{total_cell_count}' example_notebook.ipynb
example_notebook.ipynb:cell#10:1:31: E231 missing whitespace after ':'
```
