Conda and pip install (0.2.2) not showing plugins with flake8 --version; 0.2.1 works

[deppen8]

Thanks for the detailed report, @jeffchiou. I know it can feel annoying to put together, but it gives me a ton of useful context.

I see the same thing on MacOS, so I think it is safe to rule out any Mac/Windows problems. As far as I can tell (and correct me if it is different for you), everything still works as it is supposed to (see below for my simple test). Is there a particular use-case you have where you need to check the installed plugins programmatically?

I suspect the root issue is related to my implementation of that "off-by-default" --annoy option, which is the biggest addition to v0.2.2. When I register that option, it might be doing something strange to the entrypoints checks. I'd love suggestions for how to fix things; I'm not sure of the best way forward.

N.B. For 🤦 reasons explained in #78 (comment), v0.2.1 was identical to v.0.2.0.

Test

I created this dummy test.py file.

import pandas

df = pandas.DataFrame()

When I ran flake8, I got what I expected

$ flake8 test.py 
test.py:1:1: PD001 pandas should always be imported as 'import pandas as pd'

and

$ flake8 --annoy test.py 
test.py:1:1: PD001 pandas should always be imported as 'import pandas as pd'
test.py:3:1: PD901 'df' is a bad variable name. Be kinder to your future self.

@deppen8
The use case for me checking the plugins is just making sure my flake8 plugins are working correctly. Thank you for your work - and no problem, I'm sure being a maintainer can get much more annoying at times than writing a bug report.

This plugin should be defining parse_options as a classmethod to receive parsed arguments as parsed by Flake8, not calling this itself.

This might be missing from the documentation but every popular plugin that adds options to Flake8 follows this API except for this one.

This is documented though: https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/plugin-development/plugin-parameters.html#accessing-parsed-options
