NAME

vulture - searches for unused ("dead") code in a Python program

SYNOPSIS

vulture [options] <path>

DESCRIPTION

Vulture scans for unused classes, functions and variables.

Due to Python's dynamic nature it's impossible to find all ununsed code for a static code analyzer, because it ignores scopes and scans only token names. Additionally, some dynamic items that are not explicitly called in the code may be incorrectly reported.

OPTIONS

-h, --help

--exclude=<exclude>

      comma-separated list of filename patterns to exclude (e.g. svn,external)
-v, --verbose
