Ruff run format command

[RomeoAva]

Hello,
I am trying to use Ruff through this Github action. My issue is when I use the command ruff check file.py it will only alert me on bugs such as imports not used etc, but doesn't alert me on formatting errors. To get those errors I use the command ruff format --check file.py which would give me:

Would reformat: app/file.py
1 file would be reformatted

My issue is that the megalinter ruff linter only seems to allow the check command. I tried to tweak it inside the mega-linter.yml config but not luck:

  PYTHON_RUFF_COMMAND_REMOVE_ARGUMENTS: 'check'
  PYTHON_RUFF_ARGUMENTS: 'format --check'

https://megalinter.io/latest/descriptors/python_ruff/#ruff-documentation

It works with the official Github ruff-action with this workflow but I would prefer to use the one with megalinter since it has more overall features

name: Ruff
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  ruff:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: chartboost/ruff-action@v1
        with:
          src: "./app"
          args: format --check

Any ideas? Thank you for your help

@RomeoAva please can you try with:

  PYTHON_RUFF_COMMAND_REMOVE_ARGUMENTS: 'check'
  PYTHON_RUFF_ARGUMENTS: ['format','--check']
  LOG_LEVEL: DEBUG

And see what is the command line built by MegaLinter in the logs ?

Hi @nvuillam, when using PYTHON_RUFF_ARGUMENTS: ['format','--check'] I face the following error:

The workflow is not valid. .github/workflows/mega-linter.yml (Line: 27, Col: 26): A sequence was not expected

I believe this is due to the brackets not being allowed here.

And when running it with the following:

  PYTHON_RUFF_COMMAND_REMOVE_ARGUMENTS: 'check'
  PYTHON_RUFF_ARGUMENTS: 'format --check'

I get this error:

Would this work ?

PYTHON_RUFF_ARGUMENTS:
- format
- --check

From what I understand, formatting in ruff is more like a second tool, like an (almost) drop in replacement for black, and the linter is a replacement for all other linters. So it's quite possible we'd have to call it like a linter, and a second time just like we call black, for the formatting part. The check flag is like black's check flag, where it will only show if it would change the file, but not do the changes.

[nvuillam]

So maybe we should declare a second linter "PYTHON_RUFF_FORMATTER" ?

[ipmb]

That's correct @echoix

Ruff has a linter that is closer to what Flake8 does That is run with ruff check and ruff check --fix

It recently released a formatter that can replace Black. That is run with ruff format --check and ruff format
