Enhancements

  • Added new configuration option use-pyta-error-messages to let users choose whether PythonTA should overwrite pylint's error messages.
  • Both PlainReporter and ColorReporter emphasize specific code chunks by using overline characters under any part that is highlighted as ERROR.
  • Added snapshot function for deriving a list of dictionaries containing local variables from relevant functions and/or stack frames.
  • Added new configuration option allow-pylint-comments to let users choose whether PythonTA should allow comments beginning with pylint: or not.
  • AccumulationTable can now track variables initialized within the for loop. Prior, only variables initialized before the for loop could be tracked.
  • AccumulationTable now stores deep copies of objects rather than shallow copies, thus fixing issues that come up in case of mutation during loop.
  • AccumulationTable can now take in any accumulator expressions, for eg. x * 2, instead of just variables.
  • AccumulationTable now has an optional initialization argument output which allows the users to choose whether they want to write the Accumulation Table to a file.
  • Created a RecursionTable context manager for recursive tracing using a tabular output.
  • Support Python 3.12 (requiring upgrade to pylint and astroid 3.0)

Bug fixes

  • Fix bug in ending location setting for Attribute and DelAttr nodes when the same attribute was accessed twice on the same line.
  • Fix bug where the naming-convention-violation checker was checking variables defined in a module's main block. This was inconsistent with the forbidden-global-variables checker.
  • Fixed bug with invalid-range-index: do not attempt any inference of variables in range expressions. All range arguments involving variables will be ignored by this checker.

New checkers

Pylint checkers v3.0:

  • invalid-field-call
  • return-in-finally
  • kwarg-superseded-by-positional-arg
  • unnecessary-negation (renamed from unneeded-not)

For more information on these checkers, please see the Pylint release notes. Note that the above list only contains the Pylint checkers enabled by default in PythonTA.

Internal

  • Remove experimental type inference code.
