Setuptools integration ====================== Upon installation, Flake8 enables a setuptools command that checks Python files declared by your project. Running ``python setup.py flake8`` on the command line will check the files listed in your ``py_modules`` and ``packages``. If any warning is found, the command will exit with an error code:: $ python setup.py flake8 Also, to allow users to be able to use the command without having to install flake8 themselves, add flake8 to the setup_requires of your setup() like so:: setup( name="project", packages=["project"], setup_requires=[ "flake8" ] )
