(formerly pep257)

**pydocstyle** is a static analysis tool for checking compliance with Python
docstring conventions.

**pydocstyle** supports most of
`PEP 257 <http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/>`_ out of the box, but it
should not be considered a reference implementation.

**pydocstyle** supports Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, and pypy.


.. attention:: Support for Python 2.7 will be removed in the next release.
