Ruff Linting

Ruff is an extremely fast Python linter designed as a drop-in replacement for Flake8 (plus dozens of plugins), isort, pydocstyle, pyupgrade, autoflake, and more. Written in Rust, it offers 10-100x performance improvements over traditional Python linters.

Overview

Ruff provides a single CLI for linting with optional auto-fix. It supports an extensive rule set with 800+ built-in rules and integrates cleanly with pre-commit, CI systems, and modern editors.

Key Features

• Extremely Fast: 10-100x faster than Flake8, Black, isort
• Drop-in Replacement: Compatible with existing Flake8 plugins and configurations
• Auto-fix Support: Automatically fix many common issues
• Comprehensive Rules: 800+ built-in rules from popular linters
• Single Tool: Replaces flake8, isort, pyupgrade, autoflake, pydocstyle, and more

When to Use

• Standardizing code quality across a project or team
• Enforcing consistent coding rules in CI/CD pipelines
• Replacing multiple linting tools with a single fast solution
• Auto-fixing common code style issues
• Migrating from Flake8, isort, or other legacy linters

Quick Start

# Install Ruff
uv pip install ruff
# or
pip install ruff

# Run linting on current directory
ruff check .

# Run linting with auto-fix
ruff check . --fix

# Watch mode for development
ruff check --watch

Core Patterns

1. Start minimal: Enable E and F rules first, then gradually expand
2. Auto-fix safely: Use ruff check --fix for safe fixes only
3. Per-file ignores: Use sparingly for generated code or special cases
4. CI integration: Use ruff check --output-format github for GitHub Actions
5. Single source of truth: Configure via pyproject.toml or ruff.toml

Rule Selection

Ruff uses a code system where each rule consists of a 1-3 letter prefix followed by digits (e.g., F401). Rules are controlled via lint.select, lint.extend-select, and lint.ignore.

Recommended Rule Sets

Minimal (Start Here):

[tool.ruff.lint]
select = ["E", "F"]  # pycodestyle errors + Pyflakes

Balanced (Recommended):

[tool.ruff.lint]
select = [
    "E",    # pycodestyle errors
    "F",    # Pyflakes
    "UP",   # pyupgrade
    "B",    # flake8-bugbear
    "SIM",  # flake8-simplify
    "I",    # isort
]

Comprehensive:

[tool.ruff.lint]
select = [
    "E",    # pycodestyle errors
    "W",    # pycodestyle warnings
    "F",    # Pyflakes
    "UP",   # pyupgrade
    "B",    # flake8-bugbear
    "SIM",  # flake8-simplify
    "I",    # isort
    "N",    # pep8-naming
    "S",    # flake8-bandit (security)
    "C4",   # flake8-comprehensions
    "DTZ",  # flake8-datetimez
    "T20",  # flake8-print
    "RUF",  # Ruff-specific rules
]
ignore = ["E501"]  # Line too long (handled by formatter)

Rule Priority

CLI options override pyproject.toml, which overrides inherited configs:

1. CLI (--select, --ignore) - highest priority
2. Current pyproject.toml
3. Inherited pyproject.toml files

For detailed rule configuration, see references/rule_selection.md.

Configuration

pyproject.toml (Recommended)

[tool.ruff]
line-length = 88
target-version = "py311"
exclude = [".venv", "dist", "build", "*.pyi"]

[tool.ruff.lint]
select = ["E", "F", "UP", "B", "SIM", "I"]
ignore = ["E501"]
fixable = ["ALL"]
unfixable = []

[tool.ruff.lint.per-file-ignores]
"tests/**/*.py" = ["S101"]      # Allow assert in tests
"__init__.py" = ["F401"]         # Allow unused imports
"**/{tests,docs,tools}/*" = ["E402"]  # Allow late imports

[tool.ruff.lint.isort]
known-first-party = ["myproject"]

[tool.ruff.lint.pydocstyle]
convention = "google"

ruff.toml Alternative

line-length = 88
target-version = "py311"

[lint]
select = ["E", "F", "UP", "B", "SIM", "I"]
ignore = ["E501"]

[lint.per-file-ignores]
"tests/**/*.py" = ["S101"]

Fix Safety

Ruff categorizes fixes as safe or unsafe:

# Apply only safe fixes (default)
ruff check --fix

# Apply all fixes including unsafe
ruff check --fix --unsafe-fixes

# Show what unsafe fixes are available
ruff check --unsafe-fixes

Adjusting Fix Safety

[tool.ruff.lint]
# Promote unsafe fixes to safe
extend-safe-fixes = ["F601"]

# Demote safe fixes to unsafe
extend-unsafe-fixes = ["UP034"]

# Control which rules can be fixed
fixable = ["ALL"]
unfixable = ["F401"]  # Never auto-fix unused imports

For detailed fix safety documentation, see references/fix_safety.md.

Error Suppression

Line-Level (noqa)

x = 1  # noqa: F841           # Ignore specific rule
i = 1  # noqa: E741, F841     # Ignore multiple rules
x = 1  # noqa                  # Ignore all rules (avoid this)

File-Level

# ruff: noqa                   # Ignore all rules in file
# ruff: noqa: F841             # Ignore specific rule in file

Block-Level (Preview Mode)

# ruff: disable[E501]
VALUE_1 = "Very long string..."
VALUE_2 = "Another long string..."
# ruff: enable[E501]
