I would like to see twisted code base free of pyflakes errors.
In this way, when someone sees pyflakes errors in his/her branch will
know
for sure that those errors are generated by changes in that branch.
Also
developers could run pyflakes on local computers, before sending a
patch
and have instance feedback for pyflakes errors.
One problem is that pyflakes will complain about unused imports.
JP suggested a fix for that and I have created a ticket:
https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/7014
I am not sure how the suggested requireModule("OpenSSL") style API
should
work, but in the same comment, JP suggested to use 'namedAny' to get
the
same effect as the unused import.
My problem with namedAny is that it does not raise ImportError ... but
rather ModuleNotFound or ObjectNotFound.
But I found 'namedModule' which raise ImportError
Here is an example of namedModule usage which should work around
pyflakes
errors.
Old code:
try:
import threading
threading # Silence the linter.
except ImportError:
self.assertFalse(Platform().supportsThreads())
New code
try:
namedModule('threading')
except ImportError:
self.assertFalse(Platform().supportsThreads())
What do you think, is namedModule usage acceptable or we should work at
implementing the requireModule("OpenSSL") API?
Cool. I always forget about the other APIs since `namedAny` works for
anything. :) `namedModule` seems like a great fit here.
