Pylint encodes multiple message types (fatal, error, warning, refactor, convention, usage error) into a single bit-encoded return code, which makes it difficult to distinguish genuine failures from non-severe issues in automation. This tool decodes that return code, identifies whether fatal or usage errors occurred, and returns a simple 0 (success) or 1 (failure) that scripts can easily act on.\n\nBy default, only fatal messages and usage errors trigger a non-zero exit; you can add flags like `--error-fail` or `--warn-fail` to treat other message types as failures. The typical usage pattern is to append `|| pylint-exit $?` to your pylint command in a CI pipeline or shell script, letting the tool re-process the exit code before your script checks it.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to integrate pylint into shell scripts or CI pipelines and want a simple exit code wrapper. The package is small, has no dependencies, and does one thing well. However, it is abandoned (last release 2020-07-15) and will not receive updates; verify it works with your pylint version before relying on it in production automation."},"id":"pylint-exit","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pylint-exit","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pylint-exit.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pylint-exit/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2020-07-15","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pylint-exit","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Exit code handler for pylint command line utility."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":156455,"position":10784,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.2.0"}
