v3.3.9
What's new in Pylint 3.3.9?
Release date: 2025-10-05
False Positives Fixed
-
Fix used-before-assignment for PEP 695 type aliases and parameters.
Closes #9815
-
No longer flag undeprecated functions in
importlib.resourcesas deprecated.Closes #10593
-
Fix false positive
inconsistent-return-statementswhen usingquit()orexit()functions.Closes #10508
-
Fix false positive
undefined-variable(E0602) for for-loop variable shadowing patterns likefor item in item:when the variable was previously defined.Closes #10562
Other Bug Fixes
-
Fixed crash in 'unnecessary-list-index-lookup' when starting an enumeration using minus the length of an iterable inside a dict comprehension when the len call was only made in this dict comprehension, and not elsewhere. Also changed the approach, to use inference in all cases but the simple ones, so we don't have to fix crashes one by one for arbitrarily complex expressions in enumerate.
Closes #10510
v3.3.8
What's new in Pylint 3.3.8?
Release date: 2025-08-09
This patch release includes an exceptional fix for a false negative issue. For details, see: #10482 (comment)

v3.3.7
What's new in Pylint 3.3.7?

The algorithm used for
no-membersuggestions is now more efficient and cuts the calculation when the distance score is already above the threshold.Refs #10277

False Positives Fixed

Fix false positives for
undefined-variablefor classes using Python 3.12 generic type syntax.Closes #9335

Closes #9947
v3.3.0
Release date: 2024-09-20
Changes requiring user actions
-
We migrated
symilarto argparse, from getopt, so the error and help output changed (for the better). We exit with 2 instead of sometime 1, sometime 2. The error output is not captured by the runner anymore. It's not possible to use a value for the boolean options anymore (--ignore-comments 1should become--ignore-comments).Refs #9731

declare-non-sloterror which reports when a class has a__slots__member and a type hint on the class is not present in__slots__.Refs #9499
New Checks

too-many-positional-argumentsto allow distinguishing the configuration for too many total arguments (with keyword-only params specified after*) from the configuration for too many positional-or-keyword or positional-only arguments.As part of evaluating whether this check makes sense for your project, ensure you adjust the value of
--max-positional-arguments.Closes #9099

await-outside-asyncwhen await is inside Lambda.Refs #9653
-
Fix a false negative for

Impossible to compile regexes for paths in the configuration or argument given to pylint won't crash anymore but raise an argparse error and display the error message from
re.compileinstead.Closes #9680
-
Fix a bug where a
tox.inifile with pylint configuration was ignored and it exists in the current directory..cfgand.inifiles containing aPylintconfiguration may now use a section named[pylint]. This enhancement impacts the scenario where these file types are used as defaults when they are present and have not been explicitly referred to, using the--rcfileoption.Closes #9727
-
Improve file discovery for directories that are not python packages.
Closes #9764
Other Changes

-
Add support for Python 3.13.
Refs #9852
Internal Changes

All variables, classes, functions and file names containing the word 'similar', when it was, in fact, referring to 'symilar' (the standalone program for the duplicate-code check) were renamed to 'symilar'.
Closes #9734

v3.2.3

...) in their body do not trigger 'multiple-statements' anymore if they are inlined (in accordance with black's 2024 style).Closes #9398

sys.exit()) frompossibly-used-before-assignmentchecks.Closes #9627

Add
--prefer-stubs=yesoption to opt-in to the astroid 3.2 feature that prefers.pyistubs over same-named.pyfiles. This has the potential to reduceno-membererrors but at the cost of more errors such asnot-an-iterablefrom function bodies appearing as....Defaults to
no.
Internal Changes
-
Update astroid version to 3.2.1. This solves some reports of
RecursionErrorand also makes the prefer .pyi stubs feature in astroid 3.2.0 opt-in with the aforementioned--prefer-stubs=yoption.Refs #9139
v3.2.0
What's new in Pylint 3.2.0?
Release date: 2024-05-14
Of note: a github reporter, two new checks (possibly-used-before-assignment and contextmanager-generator-missing-cleanup), performance improvements, and an astroid upgrade providing support for @overload and .pyi stubs.
New Features
-
Understand
six.PY2andsix.PY3for conditional imports.Closes #3501
-
A new
githubreporter has been added. This reporter returns the output ofpylintin a format that Github can use to automatically annotate code. Use it withpylint --output-format=githubon your Github Workflows.Closes #9443.
New Checks
-
Add check
possibly-used-before-assignmentwhen relying on names after anif/elseswitch when one branch failed to define the name, raise, or return.Closes #1727
-
Checks for generators that use contextmanagers that don't handle cleanup properly. Is meant to raise visibilty on the case that a generator is not fully exhausted and the contextmanager is not cleaned up properly. A contextmanager must yield a non-constant value and not handle cleanup for GeneratorExit. The using generator must attempt to use the yielded context value
with x() as yand not justwith x().Closes #2832
False Negatives Fixed
-
If and Try nodes are now checked for useless return statements as well.
Closes #9449.
-
Fix false negative for
property-with-parametersin the case of parameters which arepositional-only,keyword-only,variadic positionalorvariadic keyword.Closes #9584
False Positives Fixed
Performance Improvements
-
Ignored modules are now not checked at all, instead of being checked and then ignored. This should speed up the analysis of large codebases which have ignored modules.
Closes #9442
-
ImportChecker's logic has been modified to avoid context files when possible. This makes it possible to cache module searches on astroid and reduce execution times.
Refs #9310.
-
An internal check for
trailing-comma-tuplebeing enabled for a file or not is now done once per file instead of once for each token.Refs #9608.
v3.1.1
What's new in Pylint 3.1.1?
Release date: 2024-05-13
False Positives Fixed
-
Treat
attrs.defineandattrs.frozenas dataclass decorators intoo-few-public-methodscheck.Closes #9345

singledispatchmethod-functionwhen a method is decorated with bothfunctools.singledispatchmethodandstaticmethod.Closes #9531
-
Fix a false positive for
consider-using-dict-itemswhen iterating usingkeys()and then deleting an item using the key as a lookup.Closes #9554
v3.1.0
Two new checks--use-yield-from, deprecated-attribute-- and a smattering of bug fixes.
New Features
-
Skip
consider-using-joincheck for non-empty separators if ansuggest-join-with-non-empty-separatoroption is set tono.Closes #8701
-
Discover
.pyifiles when linting.These can be ignored with the
ignore-patternssetting.Closes #9097

Check for
.clear,.discard,.popandremovemethods being called on a set while it is being iterated over.Closes #9334

use-yield-fromadded to the refactoring checker. This message is emitted when yielding from a loop can be replaced byyield from.Closes #9229.
-
Added a
deprecated-attributemessage to check deprecated attributes in the stdlib.Closes #8855
False Positives Fixed
-
Fixed false positive for
inherit-non-classfor generic Protocols.Closes #9106

Exempt
TypedDictfromtyping_extensionsfromtoo-many-ancestorchecks.Refs #9167
False Negatives Fixed
-
Extend broad-exception-raised and broad-exception-caught to except*.
Closes #8827
-
Fix a false-negative for unnecessary if blocks using a different than expected ordering of arguments.
Closes #8947.
Other Bug Fixes
-
Improve the message provided for wrong-import-order check. Instead of the import statement ("import x"), the message now specifies the import that is out of order and which imports should come after it. As reported in the issue, this is particularly helpful if there are multiple imports on a single line that do not follow the PEP8 convention.
The message will report imports as follows: For "import X", it will report "(standard/third party/first party/local) import X" For "import X.Y" and "from X import Y", it will report "(standard/third party/first party/local) import X.Y" The import category is specified to provide explanation as to why pylint has issued the message and guidence to the developer on how to fix the problem.
Closes #8808
Other Changes
-
Print how many files were checked in verbose mode.
Closes #8935
-
Fix a crash when an enum class which is also decorated with a
dataclasses.dataclassdecorator is defined.Closes #9100
