The command you provided is used to run the pycodestyle tool with the --show-pep8 option on a specific Python file.
Here's a breakdown of the command and its components:
-
pycodestyle: It is a command-line tool that checks Python code for compliance with the PEP 8 style guide. PEP 8 is a set of guidelines on how to write Python code to make it more readable and maintainable.
-
--show-pep8: It is an option in pycodestyle that displays all PEP 8 error codes and their related texts. This option provides additional details about the style violations found in the code.
-
${file-py}: This is likely a placeholder that represents the path or name of the Python file you want to run pycodestyle on. The actual filename should be replaced in place of ${file-py}.
Overall, when you execute the command, pycodestyle will analyze the specified Python file and output any PEP 8 violations with their associated error codes and details.
