Upstream changelog:
New Features
- Added the D104 error code - "Missing docstring in public package". This new
error is turned on by default. Missing docstring in __init__.py files which
previously resulted in D100 errors ("Missing docstring in public module")
will now result in D104.
- Added the D105 error code - "Missing docstring in magic method'. This new
error is turned on by default. Missing docstrings in magic method which
previously resulted in D102 error ("Missing docstring in public method") will
now result in D105. Note that exceptions to this rule are variadic magic
methods - specifically __init__, __call__ and __new__, which will be
considered non-magic and missing docstrings in them will result in D102.
- Support the option to exclude all error codes. Running pep257 with --select=
(or select= in the configuration file) will exclude all errors which could
then be added one by one using add-select. Useful for projects new to pep257.
- Added check D211: No blank lines allowed before class docstring. This change
is a result of a change to the official PEP257 convention. Therefore, D211
will now be checked by default instead of D203, which required a single blank
line before a class docstring.
- Configuration files are now handled correctly. The closer a configuration
file is to a checked file the more it matters. Configuration files no longer
support explain, source, debug, verbose or count.
Bug Fixes
- On Python 2.x, D302 ("Use u""" for Unicode docstrings") is not reported if
unicode_literals is imported from __future__.
- Fixed a bug where there was no executable for pep257 on Windows.
