Yeah, I agree -- just do it over time and as-needed. I'm sure I will be
bothered by something-or-other sooner-or-later and I'll wind up doing it
anyway. Just maybe not this week!

Alright. I hacked it together to be "minimal" in terms of SLOC, but I can
make it ... less minimal.

(1) I think that the test file discovery logic and skip list belong together,
 and that those items belong in iotests/. I think they also belong in
 whichever directory pylintrc and mypy.ini are in, also in iotests/.


Agreed.


(2) Moving this logic into python/tests/ is challenging because I'd have
 to import iotests code from elsewhere in the source tree, which just
 inverts an existing problem I have been trying to rid us of --
 needing to muck around with PYTHONPATH or sys.path hacking in python
 scripts. I'm keen to avoid this.


OK.


(3) If we moved all python tests into tests/ and gave them *.py
 extensions, we wouldn't even need the test discovery functions
 anymore, and all of linters.py could be removed entirely, including
 this execution shim. We could rely on mypy/pylint's own file
 discovery mechanisms at that point. More work than I'm up for with
 just this series, but I could be coaxed into doing it if there was
 some promise of not rejecting all that busywork ;)


I believe the only real value this would gain is that the tests would 
have nicer names and we would have to delint them.  If we find those 
goals to justify the effort, then we can put in the effort; and we can 
do that slowly, test by test.  I don’t think we must do it now in one 
big lump just to get rid of the file discovery functions.

So I can run it as `python linters.py --pylint foo bar` and it won’t

I don’t feel like it’s important, but, well, it isn’t right either.

[PATCH 10/13] iotests/linters: Add entry point for linting via Python CI

2021-10-04 Thread John Snow
We need at least a tiny little shim here to join test file discovery
with test invocation. This logic could conceivably be hosted somewhere
in python/, but I felt it was strictly the least-rude thing to keep the
test logic here in iotests/, even if this small function isn't itself an
iotest.

Note that we don't actually even need the executable bit here, we'll be
relying on the ability to run this module as a script using Python CLI
arguments. No chance it gets misunderstood as an actual iotest that way.

(It's named, not in tests/, doesn't have the execute bit, and doesn't
have an execution shebang.)

(1) I think that the test file discovery logic and skip list belong together,
and that those items belong in iotests/. I think they also belong in
whichever directory pylintrc and mypy.ini are in, also in iotests/.

(2) Moving this logic into python/tests/ is challenging because I'd have
to import iotests code from elsewhere in the source tree, which just
inverts an existing problem I have been trying to rid us of --
needing to muck around with PYTHONPATH or sys.path hacking in python
scripts. I'm keen to avoid this.

(3) If we moved all python tests into tests/ and gave them *.py
extensions, we wouldn't even need the test discovery functions
anymore, and all of linters.py could be removed entirely, including
this execution shim. We could rely on mypy/pylint's own file
discovery mechanisms at that point. More work than I'm up for with
just this series, but I could be coaxed into doing it if there was
some promise of not rejecting all that busywork ;)
