Current Behavior

  1:1      NIP102 None of those Python files was found in the root dir /home/travis/build/wemake-services/wemake-python-styleguide/docs: setup.py, autoapp.py
  # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
  ^

Source: wemake-services/wemake-python-styleguide#760
CI: https://travis-ci.org/wemake-services/wemake-python-styleguide/jobs/571009091

I am not sure what's going on.
It also does not happen locally.

Hi @sobolevn.

This is related to the search for the root dir of the project.
This is my guess: your project has a root dir (the one with pyproject.toml or setup.cfg), but no Python files could be found.

I have a hardcoded list of files that usually belong to the root: app.py, setup.py, manage.py, or any *.py file.
The error message is slightly wrong, though; it should say something about manage.py and *.py.

Anyway, I'm not sure how to determine the root folder of a project.
There was another issue with a Django project before (#21).

I am also assuming that every project must have at least one .*py file, otherwise flake8 won't even work.

Could you share your directory tree like this?
Then I could try to understand what's going on.
Thanks!

I think I know the problem.
There is a requirements.txt file inside the docs subdirectory, and nitpick incorrectly thinks this is the root dir of the project.

🎉 This issue has been resolved in version 0.19.0 🎉

Just to be clear: we can always have a configuration option for the complex cases.

[andreoliwa]

Yes. 👍 If it happens again, I will think of some configuration.
