PyLint with badge – GitHub Action

GitHub action that lets you easily lint one or multiple packages of your project and adds a dynamic badge
to your README.md that lets you display the obtained score!

Each time the action is run, packages specified will be linted and a badge in the README.md is updated dynamically
following one of the below rules:

Range PyLint score Badge
PyLint score $< 5$ pylint-red
$5 \le$ PyLint score $< 8$ pylint-orange
$8 \le$ PyLint score $< 10$ pylint-yellow
PyLint score $= 10$ pylint-green

The action can be triggered by a Pull request, a Push or manually with workflow_dispatch.
If the score is changed, the github_action bot will change your badge with an automatic commit

A quick example on how you would typically use this action (more examples in scenario section)

- uses: Silleellie/pylint-github-action@v1
  with:
    package-path: src  # lint src package
    python-version: 3.9  # python version which will lint the package

Preliminary steps

To use this action you should perform two simple first-time-only operations:

  1. In order to have a dynamic updated badge, before using for the first time this action, you should put a placeholder
    badge     in your README.md which will be substituted by the actual one as soon as you run this action.
    The placeholder badge should be in one of the following formats:

![pylint]() or [![pylint]()](https://redirect/link)

  1. Be sure to set write permissions to GitHub actions in your repo settings!
    You can change it in Settings > Actions > General, then go to subsection Workflow Permissions and thick the
    Read and write permission option

Usage

- uses: Silleellie/pylint-github-action@v1
  with:
    
    # Path of the package(s) to lint, relative to the repository root. 
    # If more than one package should be linted, simply specify all of them 
    # with the multi-line notation like so:
    # package-path: |
    #   src
    #   other_src
    #   ...
    # 
    # Required
    package-path: src
    
    # Version of the Python interpreter which will install all requirements of your project 
    # and lint the package(s) specified with the `package-path` argument
    #
    # Required
    python-version: 3.9

    # Path of the requirements of your project, relative to the repository root. 
    # This can be easily changed in case you have `requirements-dev.txt`
    #
    # Optional, Default: requirements.txt
    requirements-path: requirements.txt
    
    # Path of the README.md to update with the pylint badge, relative to the repository root.
    #
    # Optional, Default: README.md
    readme-path: README.md
