<p>Pylint recognizes a number of different name types internally. With a few
exceptions, the type of the name is governed by the location the assignment to a

<h3>Multiple Naming Styles<a class="headerlink" href="#multiple-naming-styles" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>Large code bases that have been worked on for multiple years often exhibit an
evolution in style as well. In some cases, modules can be in the same package,
but still have different naming style based on the stratum they belong to.
However, intra-module consistency should still be required, to make changes
inside a single file easier. For this case, Pylint supports regular expression
with several named capturing group.</p>
<p>Rather than emitting name warnings immediately, Pylint will determine the
prevalent naming style inside each module and enforce it on all names.</p>
<p>Consider the following (simplified) example:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>pylint --function-rgx='(?:(?P<snake>[a-z_]+)|(?P<camel>_?[A-Z]+))$' sample.py
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The regular expression defines two naming styles, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">snake</span></code> for snake-case
names, and <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">camel</span></code> for camel-case names.</p>
<p>In <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">sample.py</span></code>, the function name on line 1 and 7 will mark the module
and enforce the match of named group <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">snake</span></code> for the remaining names in
the module:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">valid_snake_case</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">arg</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="o">...</span>
<span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">InvalidCamelCase</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">arg</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="o">...</span>
<span class="k">def</span> <span class="nf">more_valid_snake_case</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">arg</span><span class="p">):</span>
<span class="o">...</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Because of this, the name on line 4 will trigger an <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">invalid-name</span></code> warning,
even though the name matches the given regex.</p>
<p>Matches named <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">exempt</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ignore</span></code> can be used for non-tainting names, to
prevent built-in or interface-dictated names to trigger certain naming styles.</p>
<dl class="option">
<dt id="cmdoption--name-group">
<code class="descname">--name-group</code><code class="descclassname">=<name1:name2:...,...></code><a class="headerlink" href="#cmdoption--name-group" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>
<dd><p>Default value: empty</p>
<p>Format: comma-separated groups of colon-separated names.</p>
<p>This option can be used to combine name styles. For example, <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">function:method</span></code> enforces that functions and methods use the same style, and a style triggered by either name type carries over to the other. This requires that the regular expression for the combined name types use the same group names.</p>

<h3>Name Hints<a class="headerlink" href="#name-hints" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>

<dd><p>Default: off</p>
<p>Include a hint for the correct name format with every <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">invalid-name</span></code> warning.</p>
<p>Name hints default to the regular expression, but can be separately configured with the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--<name-type>-hint</span></code> options.</p>
