Code Climate is a powerful tool even if you don’t adjust any of its default settings. Once you start to tweak its configuration you uncover even more capabilities. In this video, gain a clear understanding of how to adjust the settings for Code Climate built-in behavior and also how to adjust settings for any plugins that your team has selected.
- [Instructor] By default Code Climate … only provides results using the cognitive complexity metric. … Cognitive complexity's still pretty new. … So I find it's best to compare and contrast … to a cyclomatic complexity. … Cyclomatic complexity's been around for longer, … and is more widely implemented. … If you'd like to also see cyclomatic complexity … when using Code Climate, then you'll need … to enable a plugin, which computes that metric for you. … I'll show you how to turn on cyclomatic complexity checks … for a Python project, by using a Code climate engine, … which wraps the CLI tool right on. … Go back to my GitHub account … over at github.com/mscottford-demo. … Click on the django project … and then fork it into your GitHub account. … And then, go back over to Code Climate … and add django as a repository … by clicking Add Repo. … And again, like before when we were working with angular, … this is going to take a few minutes … for Code Climate to collect all the data it needs. …
