The example warning I am getting is Item "None" of "Optional[IO[bytes]]" has no attribute "close"], as making the line bold and red. This usually occurs if Python cannot detect the type or its function.

The way I imported: from subprocess import PIPE, STDOUT, CalledProcessError, Popen, check_output


enter image description here

  • Using # NOQA, # flake8: noqa did not help, represented as flycheck-warning'.

I still want to see the warning for unused imports but if I use # noqa I want them to go away.


Setup file, complete section for flycheck is here: https://gist.github.com/avatar-lavventura/e8713d871696538bf59a0c0245a878ec :

(use-package flycheck-pycheckers
  :after flycheck
  :ensure t
  :init
  (with-eval-after-load 'flycheck
    (add-hook 'flycheck-mode-hook #'flycheck-pycheckers-setup)
    )
  (setq flycheck-pycheckers-checkers
    '(
      mypy3
      pyflakes
      )
    )
  )

In my configuraiton I believe flake8 is enabled.

    Pyflakes doesn't appear to support the # NOQA (or similar) syntax for ignoring errors. See (stackoverflow.com/questions/5033727/…) and (github.com/PyCQA/pyflakes/issues/431). You likely want to use flake8 instead of pyflakes as a syntax checker, which will allow your # NOQA comments to work again.

  • Hm as I understand I have to run pyflakes under flake8. I think I am already using flake8 so I just remove pyflakes from .emacs and pip packages should resolve it

  • @D.Gillis not sure but I still have the same error even pyflakes is not defined in my .emacs file and seems like flake8 is enables: Syntax checker....: flake8 (/home/user/.local/bin/flake8)

    I think the warning you are getting is coming from some kind of static analyzer (such as jedi or mypy) other than flake8, which would explain why # NOQA doesn't work here. Unless it has changed recently, flake8 does not look at types, so it wouldn't be able to return a warning about an AttributeError. If the error is from mypy, adding the comment # type: ignore may work (see: stackoverflow.com/questions/49220022). If it does not work, can you provide the values of elpy-syntax-checker,python-check-command, and python-flymake-command in the buffer where this occurs?

  • Thanks # type: ignore works on my end.For python-check-command I am having /home/alper/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages is in the MYPYPATH. Please remove it.

You have some problem(s) in your code - you did not show how you imported the subprocess module - my guess is you just written import subprocess, which is not what you want. Instead use from subprocess import popen, PIPE.

The reason is if you do not import PIPE, stdout is not declared/recognised, so p1.stdout.close() does not exist; this also explains the message Item "None" of "Optional[IO[bytes]]" has no attribute "close".

  • I have tried from subprocess import popen, PIPE but still facing with the same error message. github.com/jacktasia/dumb-jump can jump into right close() function but seems like its not detected by the flake8

  • Try from command line my suggestion posted on Dec 11'20 in comments on your question and see the result. BTW, seems to me flake8 is not inserted in flycheck-pycheckers-checkers. Take into account the #noqa must be completed with error numbers, there are many cases when it is not recognised; there is also a flake8-noqa package installable with pip which checks for correct #noqa. One last word: if still problems with this, a wise decision is to install lsp + server python-language-server (with pip).
