v3.3.9

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.9?

Release date: 2025-10-05

False Positives Fixed

• Fix used-before-assignment for PEP 695 type aliases and parameters.

  Closes #​9815

• No longer flag undeprecated functions in importlib.resources as deprecated.

  Closes #​10593

• Fix false positive inconsistent-return-statements when using quit() or exit() functions.

  Closes #​10508

• Fix false positive undefined-variable (E0602) for for-loop variable shadowing patterns like for item in item: when the variable was previously defined.

  Closes #​10562

Other Bug Fixes

• Fixed crash in 'unnecessary-list-index-lookup' when starting an enumeration using
  minus the length of an iterable inside a dict comprehension when the len call was only
  made in this dict comprehension, and not elsewhere. Also changed the approach,
  to use inference in all cases but the simple ones, so we don't have to fix crashes
  one by one for arbitrarily complex expressions in enumerate.

  Closes #​10510

v3.3.8

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.8?

Release date: 2025-08-09

This patch release includes an exceptional fix for a false negative issue. For details, see: #​10482 (comment)

False Positives Fixed

• Fix false positives for possibly-used-before-assignment when variables are exhaustively
  assigned within a match block.

  Closes #​9668

• Fix false positive for missing-raises-doc and missing-yield-doc when the method length is less than docstring-min-length.

  Refs #​10104

• Fix a false positive for unused-variable when multiple except handlers bind the same name under a try block.

  Closes #​10426

False Negatives Fixed

• Fix false-negative for used-before-assignment with from __future__ import annotations in function definitions.

  Refs #​10482

Other Bug Fixes

• Fix a bug in Pyreverse where aggregations and associations were included in diagrams regardless of the selected --filter-mode (such as PUB_ONLY, ALL, etc.).

  Closes #​10373

• Fix double underscores erroneously rendering as bold in pyreverse's Mermaid output.

  Closes #​10402

v3.3.7

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.7?

Release date: 2025-05-04

False Positives Fixed

• Comparisons between two calls to type() won't raise an unidiomatic-typecheck warning anymore, consistent with the behavior applied only for == previously.

  Closes #​10161

Other Bug Fixes

• Fixed a crash when importing a class decorator that did not exist with the same name as a class attribute after the class definition.

  Closes #​10105

• Fix a crash caused by malformed format strings when using .format with keyword arguments.

  Closes #​10282

• Using a slice as a class decorator now raises a not-callable message instead of crashing. A lot of checks that dealt with decorators (too many to list) are now shortcut if the decorator can't immediately be inferred to a function or class definition.

  Closes #​10334

Other Changes

• The algorithm used for no-member suggestions is now more efficient and cuts the
  calculation when the distance score is already above the threshold.

  Refs #​10277

v3.3.6

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.6?

Release date: 2025-03-20

False Positives Fixed

• Fix a false positive for used-before-assignment when an inner function's return type
  annotation is a class defined at module scope.

  Closes #​9391

v3.3.5

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.5?

Release date: 2025-03-09

False Positives Fixed

• Fix false positives for use-implicit-booleaness-not-comparison, use-implicit-booleaness-not-comparison-to-string
  and use-implicit-booleaness-not-comparison-to-zero when chained comparisons are checked.

  Closes #​10065

• Fix a false positive for invalid-getnewargs-ex-returned when the tuple or dict has been assigned to a name.

  Closes #​10208

• Remove getopt and optparse from the list of deprecated modules.

  Closes #​10211

Other Bug Fixes

• Fixed conditional import x.y causing false positive possibly-used-before-assignment.

  Closes #​10081

• Fix a crash when something besides a class is found in an except handler.

  Closes #​10106

• Fixed raising invalid-name when using camelCase for private methods with two leading underscores.

  Closes #​10189

Other Changes

• Upload release assets to PyPI via Trusted Publishing.

  Closes #​10256

v3.3.4

Compare Source

Other Bug Fixes

• Fixes "skipped files" count calculation; the previous method was displaying an arbitrary number.

  Closes #​10073

• Fixes a crash that occurred when pylint was run in a container on a host with cgroupsv2 and restrictions on CPU usage.

  Closes #​10103

• Relaxed the requirements for isort so pylint can benefit from isort 6.

  Closes #​10203

v3.3.3

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.3?

Release date: 2024-12-23

False Positives Fixed

• Fix false positives for undefined-variable for classes using Python 3.12
  generic type syntax.

  Closes #​9335

• Fix a false positive for use-implicit-booleaness-not-len. No lint should be emitted for
  generators (len is not defined for generators).

  Refs #​10100

Other Bug Fixes

• Fix Unable to import 'collections.abc' (import-error) on Python 3.13.1.

  Closes #​10112

v3.3.2

Compare Source

False Positives Fixed

• Fix a false positive for potential-index-error when an indexed iterable
  contains a starred element that evaluates to more than one item.

  Closes #​10076

Other Bug Fixes

• Fixes the issue with --source-root option not working when the source files are in a subdirectory of the source root (e.g. when using a /src layout).

  Closes #​10026

v3.3.1

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.3.1?

Release date: 2024-09-24

False Positives Fixed

• Fix regression causing some f-strings to not be inferred as strings.

  Closes #​9947

v3.3.0

Compare Source

Release date: 2024-09-20

Changes requiring user actions

• We migrated symilar to argparse, from getopt, so the error and help output changed
  (for the better). We exit with 2 instead of sometime 1, sometime 2. The error output
  is not captured by the runner anymore. It's not possible to use a value for the
  boolean options anymore (--ignore-comments 1 should become --ignore-comments).

  Refs #​9731

New Features

• Add new declare-non-slot error which reports when a class has a __slots__ member and a type hint on the class is not present in __slots__.

  Refs #​9499

New Checks

• Added too-many-positional-arguments to allow distinguishing the configuration for too many
  total arguments (with keyword-only params specified after *) from the configuration
  for too many positional-or-keyword or positional-only arguments.

  As part of evaluating whether this check makes sense for your project, ensure you
  adjust the value of --max-positional-arguments.

  Closes #​9099

• Add using-exception-groups-in-unsupported-version and
  using-generic-type-syntax-in-unsupported-version for uses of Python 3.11+ or
  3.12+ features on lower supported versions provided with --py-version.

  Closes #​9791

• Add using-assignment-expression-in-unsupported-version for uses of := (walrus operator)
  on Python versions below 3.8 provided with --py-version.

  Closes #​9820

• Add using-positional-only-args-in-unsupported-version for uses of positional-only args on
  Python versions below 3.8 provided with --py-version.

  Closes #​9823

• Add unnecessary-default-type-args to the typing extension to detect the use
  of unnecessary default type args for typing.Generator and typing.AsyncGenerator.

  Refs #​9938

False Negatives Fixed

• Fix computation of never-returning function: Never is handled in addition to NoReturn, and priority is given to the explicit --never-returning-functions option.

  Closes #​7565.

• Fix a false negative for await-outside-async when await is inside Lambda.

  Refs #​9653

• Fix a false negative for duplicate-argument-name by including positional-only, *args and **kwargs arguments in the check.

  Closes #​9669

• Fix false negative for multiple-statements when multiple statements are present on else and finally lines of try.

  Refs #​9759

• Fix false negatives when isinstance does not have exactly two arguments.
  pylint now emits a too-many-function-args or no-value-for-parameter
  appropriately for isinstance calls.

  Closes #​9847

Other Bug Fixes

• --enable with --disable=all now produces an error, when an unknown msg code is used. Internal pylint messages are no longer affected by --disable=all.

  Closes #​9403

• Impossible to compile regexes for paths in the configuration or argument given to pylint won't crash anymore but
  raise an argparse error and display the error message from re.compile instead.

  Closes #​9680

• Fix a bug where a tox.ini file with pylint configuration was ignored and it exists in the current directory.

  .cfg and .ini files containing a Pylint configuration may now use a section named [pylint]. This enhancement impacts the scenario where these file types are used as defaults when they are present and have not been explicitly referred to, using the --rcfile option.

  Closes #​9727

• Improve file discovery for directories that are not python packages.

  Closes #​9764

Other Changes

• Remove support for launching pylint with Python 3.8.
  Code that supports Python 3.8 can still be linted with the --py-version=3.8 setting.

  Refs #​9774

• Add support for Python 3.13.

  Refs #​9852

Internal Changes

• All variables, classes, functions and file names containing the word 'similar', when it was,
  in fact, referring to 'symilar' (the standalone program for the duplicate-code check) were renamed
  to 'symilar'.

  Closes #​9734

• Remove old-style classes (Python 2) code and remove check for new-style class since everything is new-style in Python 3. Updated doc for exception checker to remove reference to new style class.

  Refs #​9925

v3.2.7

Compare Source

What's new in Pylint 3.2.7?

Release date: 2024-08-31

False Positives Fixed

• Fixed a false positive unreachable for NoReturn coroutine functions.

  Closes #​9840

Other Bug Fixes

• Fix crash in refactoring checker when calling a lambda bound as a method.

  Closes #​9865

• Fix a crash in undefined-loop-variable when providing the iterable argument to enumerate().

  Closes #​9875

• Fix to address indeterminacy of error message in case a module name is same as another in a separate namespace.

  Refs #​9883
