I have placed all python project sources in a single folder. Running the following pylint only seems to be looking and analyzing for duplicates within each source file and not across all which is what I intended:
pylint --disable=all --enable=duplicate-code /some/source/folder/
Is there a way to find code duplicates across many source files?
On Unix-based systems, collect and pass all .py files to Pylint. This approach should work with all Pylint versions
pylint --disable=all --enable=duplicate-code $(find . -name "*.py")
If you are using version 2.13 and above, you can use --recursive=y
pylint --disable=all --enable=duplicate-code --recursive=y ./
