| pre-commit-hooks |
| ================ |
| |
| Some out-of-the-box hooks for pre-commit. |
| |
| See also: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit |
| |
| |
| ### Using pre-commit-hooks with pre-commit |
| |
| Add this to your `.pre-commit-config.yaml` |
| |
| ```yaml |
| - repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks |
| rev: v4.1.0 # Use the ref you want to point at |
| hooks: |
| - id: trailing-whitespace |
| # - id: ... |
| ``` |
| |
| ### Hooks available |
| |
| #### `check-added-large-files` |
| Prevent giant files from being committed. |
| - Specify what is "too large" with `args: ['--maxkb=123']` (default=500kB). |
| - Limits checked files to those indicated as staged for addition by git. |
| - If `git-lfs` is installed, lfs files will be skipped |
| (requires `git-lfs>=2.2.1`) |
| - `--enforce-all` - Check all listed files not just those staged for |
| addition. |
| |
| #### `check-ast` |
| Simply check whether files parse as valid python. |
| |
| #### `check-builtin-literals` |
| Require literal syntax when initializing empty or zero Python builtin types. |
| - Allows calling constructors with positional arguments (e.g., `list('abc')`). |
| - Allows calling constructors from the `builtins` (`__builtin__`) namespace (`builtins.list()`). |
| - Ignore this requirement for specific builtin types with `--ignore=type1,type2,…`. |
| - Forbid `dict` keyword syntax with `--no-allow-dict-kwargs`. |
| |
| #### `check-case-conflict` |
| Check for files with names that would conflict on a case-insensitive filesystem like MacOS HFS+ or Windows FAT. |
| |
| #### `check-docstring-first` |
| Checks for a common error of placing code before the docstring. |
| |
| #### `check-executables-have-shebangs` |
| Checks that non-binary executables have a proper shebang. |
| |
| #### `check-json` |
| Attempts to load all json files to verify syntax. |
| |
| #### `check-merge-conflict` |
| Check for files that contain merge conflict strings. |
| |
| #### `check-shebang-scripts-are-executable` |
| Checks that scripts with shebangs are executable. |
| |
| #### `check-symlinks` |
| Checks for symlinks which do not point to anything. |
| |
| #### `check-toml` |
| Attempts to load all TOML files to verify syntax. |
| |
| #### `check-vcs-permalinks` |
| Ensures that links to vcs websites are permalinks. |
| - `--additional-github-domain DOMAIN` - Add check for specified domain. |
| Can be repeated multiple times. for example, if your company uses |
| GitHub Enterprise you may use something like |
| `--additional-github-domain github.example.com` |
| |
| #### `check-xml` |
| Attempts to load all xml files to verify syntax. |
| |
| #### `check-yaml` |
| Attempts to load all yaml files to verify syntax. |
| - `--allow-multiple-documents` - allow yaml files which use the |
| [multi-document syntax](http://www.yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#YAML) |
| - `--unsafe` - Instead of loading the files, simply parse them for syntax. |
| A syntax-only check enables extensions and unsafe constructs which would |
| otherwise be forbidden. Using this option removes all guarantees of |
| portability to other yaml implementations. |
| Implies `--allow-multiple-documents`. |
| |
| #### `debug-statements` |
| Check for debugger imports and py37+ `breakpoint()` calls in python source. |
| |
| #### `destroyed-symlinks` |
| Detects symlinks which are changed to regular files with a content of a path |
| which that symlink was pointing to. |
| This usually happens on Windows when a user clones a repository that has |
| symlinks but they do not have the permission to create symlinks. |
| |
| #### `detect-aws-credentials` |
| Checks for the existence of AWS secrets that you have set up with the AWS CLI. |
| The following arguments are available: |
| - `--credentials-file CREDENTIALS_FILE` - additional AWS CLI style |
| configuration file in a non-standard location to fetch configured |
| credentials from. Can be repeated multiple times. |
| - `--allow-missing-credentials` - Allow hook to pass when no credentials are detected. |
| |
| #### `detect-private-key` |
| Checks for the existence of private keys. |
| |
| #### `double-quote-string-fixer` |
| This hook replaces double quoted strings with single quoted strings. |
| |
| #### `end-of-file-fixer` |
| Makes sure files end in a newline and only a newline. |
| |
| #### `fix-byte-order-marker` |
| removes UTF-8 byte order marker |
| |
| #### `fix-encoding-pragma` |
| Add `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` to the top of python files. |
| - To remove the coding pragma pass `--remove` (useful in a python3-only codebase) |
| |
| #### `file-contents-sorter` |
| Sort the lines in specified files (defaults to alphabetical). |
| You must provide list of target files as input to it. |
| Note that this hook WILL remove blank lines and does NOT respect any comments. |
| |
| The following arguments are available: |
| - `--ignore-case` - fold lower case to upper case characters. |
| - `--unique` - ensure each line is unique. |
| |
| #### `forbid-new-submodules` |
| Prevent addition of new git submodules. |
| |
| #### `mixed-line-ending` |
| Replaces or checks mixed line ending. |
| - `--fix={auto,crlf,lf,no}` |
| - `auto` - Replaces automatically the most frequent line ending. This is the default argument. |
| - `crlf`, `lf` - Forces to replace line ending by respectively CRLF and LF. |
| - This option isn't compatible with git setup check-in LF check-out CRLF as git smudge this later than the hook is invoked. |
| - `no` - Checks if there is any mixed line ending without modifying any file. |
| |
| #### `name-tests-test` |
| Assert that files in tests/ end in `_test.py`. |
| - Use `args: ['--django']` to match `test*.py` instead. |
| |
| #### `no-commit-to-branch` |
| Protect specific branches from direct checkins. |
| - Use `args: [--branch, staging, --branch, master]` to set the branch. |
| Both `master` and `main` are protected by default if no branch argument is set. |
| - `-b` / `--branch` may be specified multiple times to protect multiple |
| branches. |
| - `-p` / `--pattern` can be used to protect branches that match a supplied regex |
| (e.g. `--pattern, release/.*`). May be specified multiple times. |
| |
| Note that `no-commit-to-branch` is configured by default to [`always_run`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-always_run). |
| As a result, it will ignore any setting of [`files`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-files), |
| [`exclude`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-exclude), [`types`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-types) |
| or [`exclude_types`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-exclude_types). |
| Set [`always_run: false`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-always_run) to allow this hook to be skipped according to these |
| file filters. Caveat: In this configuration, empty commits (`git commit --allow-empty`) would always be allowed by this hook. |
| |
| #### `pretty-format-json` |
| Checks that all your JSON files are pretty. "Pretty" |
| here means that keys are sorted and indented. You can configure this with |
| the following commandline options: |
| - `--autofix` - automatically format json files |
| - `--indent ...` - Control the indentation (either a number for a number of spaces or a string of whitespace). Defaults to 2 spaces. |
| - `--no-ensure-ascii` preserve unicode characters instead of converting to escape sequences |
| - `--no-sort-keys` - when autofixing, retain the original key ordering (instead of sorting the keys) |
| - `--top-keys comma,separated,keys` - Keys to keep at the top of mappings. |
| |
| #### `requirements-txt-fixer` |
| Sorts entries in requirements.txt and removes incorrect entry for `pkg-resources==0.0.0` |
| |
| #### `sort-simple-yaml` |
| Sorts simple YAML files which consist only of top-level |
| keys, preserving comments and blocks. |
| |
| Note that `sort-simple-yaml` by default matches no `files` as it enforces a |
| very specific format. You must opt in to this by setting [`files`](https://pre-commit.com/#config-files), for example: |
| |
| ```yaml |
| - id: sort-simple-yaml |
| files: ^config/simple/ |
| ``` |
| |
| |
| #### `trailing-whitespace` |
| Trims trailing whitespace. |
| - To preserve Markdown [hard linebreaks](https://github.github.com/gfm/#hard-line-break) |
| use `args: [--markdown-linebreak-ext=md]` (or other extensions used |
| by your markdownfiles). If for some reason you want to treat all files |
| as markdown, use `--markdown-linebreak-ext=*`. |
| - By default, this hook trims all whitespace from the ends of lines. |
| To specify a custom set of characters to trim instead, use `args: [--chars,"<chars to trim>"]`. |
| |
| ### Deprecated / replaced hooks |
| |
| - `check-byte-order-marker`: instead use fix-byte-order-marker |
| |
| ### As a standalone package |
| |
| If you'd like to use these hooks, they're also available as a standalone package. |
| |
| Simply `pip install pre-commit-hooks` |
