Configure ruff linter rules in pyproject.toml with Python
Reads an existing pyproject.toml and merges common ruff linter rules into the tool.ruff section using Python's tomllib.
import tomllib
from pathlib import Path
def configure_ruff_linter_rules(project_path: str = ".") -> dict:
"""Add common ruff linter rules to pyproject.toml if missing."""
pyproject_path = Path(project_path) / "pyproject.toml"
# Default config for ruff linter with practical rules

…How to Validate Data with a Simple Dict-Based Rules Helper in Python
Validates a dictionary against a set of callable rules, printing pass/fail per field and returning an overall boolean.

data: dict[str, Any],
rules: dict[str, Callable[[Any], bool]],
path: Path | None = None,
) -> bool:

This Python script generates a pyproject.toml file with ruff linter rules, including selected and ignored rules, per-file ignores, and complexity limits.
from pathlib import Path

"""Create a pyproject.toml with ruff linter rules for mock usage."""
pyproject_path = Path(project_dir) / "pyproject.toml"
pyproject_path.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

line-…Lint a Dockerfile with a Mock Hadolint in Python
A lightweight Python script that simulates hadolint by scanning Dockerfile text for common lint rules and printing violations.
import subprocess
import tempfile
from pathlib import Path
def lint_dockerfile(content: str) -> list[str]:
"""Mock hadolint by checking a few rules and returning violations."""
violations = []
lines = content.splitlines()
for idx, line in enumerate(lines, start=1):
stripped = line.strip()
