* Package name : vulture Version : 0.6 Upstream Author : Jendrik Seipp <jendrikse...@web.de> * URL : https://bitbucket.org/jendrikseipp/vulture * License : GPL-3.0 Programming Lang: Python Description : finds unused classes, functions and variables Vulture finds unused classes, functions and variables in your code. This helps you cleanup and find errors in your programs. If you run it on both your library and test suite you can find untested code. Due to Python's dynamic nature it is impossible to find all dead code for a static code analyzer like vulture, because it ignores scopes and scans only token names. Additionally, some dynamic items that are not explicitly called in the code may be incorrectly reported as dead code. Vulture could be employed by Prospector [1]. Though optional, this would make a nice wrap of this packaging approach. It's a CLI tool and therefore would belong to PAPT. A RFP has been filed for another "vulture" in 2012 [2], but this bug doesn't look very active.
