XML output format

[mallikarjunece]

Hi ,

Is it possible to provide output of pep8 in xml format ?

[florentx]

Hello,

could you be more precise about the feature request?

There's already some way to customize the output:

$ pep8 --format '<error code="%(code)s" path="%(path)s" pos="%(row)d,%(col)d">%(text)s</error>' ../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py

<error code="E401" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="10,14">multiple imports on one line</error>
<error code="E302" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="32,1">expected 2 blank lines, found 1</error>
<error code="E303" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="94,5">too many blank lines (2)</error>
<error code="E303" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="114,5">too many blank lines (2)</error>
<error code="E303" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="131,5">too many blank lines (2)</error>
<error code="E303" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="265,5">too many blank lines (2)</error>
<error code="E302" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="305,1">expected 2 blank lines, found 1</error>
<error code="E302" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="323,1">expected 2 blank lines, found 1</error>
<error code="E121" path="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" pos="365,20">continuation line indentation is not a multiple of four</error>

Hi ,

Sorry for the confusion.

My requirement is

<file name="../cpy25/Lib/textwrap.py" >
<error code="E401" pos="10,14">multiple imports on one line</error>
<error code="E121" pos="265,5">too many blank lines (2)</error>
</file>

<file name="../cpy25/Lib/texindex.py" >
<error code="E411" pos="10,14">multiple imports on one line</error>
<error code="E123" pos="265,5">too many blank lines (2)</error>
</file>

Is there any format settings for this ?

Please help me....

Not currently, but this might be plugin worthy

[florentx]

A working approach is to subclass the pep8.StandardReport and to implement a custom get_file_results method.

It's probably not generic enough to be included in pep8.

Going to go ahead and close this as I feel @florentx 's response and gist covers this case already.

This will also be far easier with the new flake8 3.0 that I'm working on that will have pluggable report formatters. :)
