Which atom python linting packages are stable? [closed]

Question

It seems that there are too many Python linting packages and I am wonder which one should we use.

I suspect installing two will provide a confusing experience, if not even triggering weird bugs.

• python-autopep8 - 20+
• linter-python-flaks - 6+
• linter-flake8 - 153+
• linter-pylint - 119+

Here are few areas I want to clarify:

• is ok to use more than one?
• wouldn't be better to ask authors to join efforts and focus on a single one?
  What are the pros and cons for them?

I think pylint it the most common. In all professional projects I've seen, we always used pylint. It works well. – Death

From the help center: Questions asking us to recommend or find a book, tool, software library, tutorial or other off-site resource are off-topic for Stack Overflow as they tend to attract opinionated answers and spam. – Deputize

BTW, pylint and flake8 (which combines pyflakes and pep8) are different lint tools, and autopep8 automatically formats Python code according to PEP 8. – Deputize

I'm a year late to this question, but pylama wraps most of those tools and has a linter in Atom. – Amarelle

linter-python use pylama that as @CraigKelly said use most of those tools. – Asir

I've tested most of them on my Atom in Windows 10. Unfortunately, most of them are not stable. I can't find any one which is working. There is no error message either. – Retraction
