SQLAlchemy models not having a query() attribute

[hvdklauw]

In my case I'm using the Flask-SQLAlchemy package

[hvdklauw]

So maybe we need a thing just like the django thing to ignore these specific errors

[carlio]

Yes, that's probably the case. This probably requires a new pylint-sqlalchemy plugin.

On second thought, it might be an issue with Flask.

Flask extensions are imported from flask.ext.* while they actually reside in flask_*, can we somehow tell pylint to look there instead? That will resolve most of the false positives.

[carlio]

It turns out someone already asked that question: https://bitbucket.org/logilab/pylint/issue/95/how-can-i-write-a-plugin-to-change-imports

The answer is currently 'no' but it is being worked on.

Doesn't look like much has happened on this. I am unable to use landscape.io with my flask projects right now. Any suggestions on workarounds?

from flask.ext import restful
 No name 'restful' in module 'flask.ext'

Here I've the same issue. With Flask you've lots of issues due to the extensions ;-) My solution, ignore them as I test the code extensively. However, this is suboptimal, and a better solution from prospector should be used ;-)

Same issue here too.

I made a pylint plugin that fixes the flask.ext import errors. See https://github.com/jschaf/pylint-flask. I haven't found anything for SQLAlchemy.

@jschaf great! Now they should include it in prospector and landscape :-)

[carlio]

@jschaf @teleyinex On it :)
