pylint-pycharm
This plugin provides both real-time and on-demand scanning of Python files with Pylint from within PyCharm/IDEA.
Pylint is a Python source code analyzer which looks for programming errors,
helps enforcing a coding standard and sniffs for some code smells
(as defined in Martin Fowler’s Refactoring book).
