Visual studio code suppress pep8 warnings

Question

How can I suppress pep8 warnings, in Visual studio code? What I want to do is to suppress E501 warning I don't want to get warnings where my code length is more than 80 chars. I'm using Don Jayamanne's Python extension and here is my config file for vscode

{     "python.linting.pylintEnabled": false,     "python.linting.pep8Enabled": true,     "python.pythonPath": "/workspace/virtualenvs/abr/bin/python3",     "python.linting.enabled": true } 

I know that there is one another option "python.linting.pep8Args": [] but I couldn't to get it work. I've installed pep8 on virtualenv

What I've already tried.

1. "python.linting.pep8Args": ['--ignore=E501']
2. "Searched all visual studio code settings"

Answer 1

Either use setup.cfg for single project or change your user settings for all py files.

{     "python.linting.pycodestyleEnabled": true,     "python.linting.pycodestyleArgs": [         "--ignore=E501"      ] } 

Before October 2019 all pycodestyle settings were named pep8:

{     "python.linting.pep8Enabled": true,     "python.linting.pep8Args": [         "--ignore=E501"      ] }

If you want to change the line length, add this in your User Settings file

{    "python.linting.pep8Enabled": true,   "python.linting.pep8Args": ["--max-line-length=120" ] } 

previous code was giving me 'EOF' error, so i edited it
