Does pep8speaks follow #noqa flags?

Hey @fmaussion! Thank you for reaching out to me about the issue.

I wasn't aware of #noqa until now. PEP8Speaks uses pycodestyle as the linter. So, the error messages are not up to me.

I found some discussion about implementing it in pycodestyle, but if I am not wrong, it still remains a missing feature.

So, yes this is expected as of now, and the only way to avoid it is to put E741 in the ignores list of .pep8speaks.yml

Thanks for the info! Maybe we'll keep this issue open for future reference.

Hi @fmaussion !

I can see that E741 has been added to the ignore list in .pep8speaks.yml. Does @pep8speaks still complain about any #noqa errors other than E741?

I would also like to let you know that there is no need to maintain two copies of pycodestyle/flake8 settings in .pep8speaks.yml and setup.cfg. You can go ahead and remove pycodestyle: section from .pep8speaks.yml and it will read the [flake8] section of setup.cfg file. See #95 and pandas-dev/pandas#25605

Hi @fmaussion !

PEP 8 Speaks can now support #noqa. After #115, projects can choose between pycodestyle and flake8 as their linter. The scanner.linter option .pep8speaks.yml should be set to flake8.

Example .pep8speaks.yml -

scanner:
    diff_only: True
    linter: flake8

flake8:  # Skip this if you have [flake8] in your setup.cfg file
    ignore:
        - EXXX
        - WXXX

Complete configuration details is in the README. I am going to close this issue. Let me know if you have any questions/comments!
