        Flake8 __author__ Checker
        =========================

        ``flake8-author`` is a `Flake8 <http://flake8.pycqa.org/>`_ extension that
        checks Python modules for module-level ``__author__`` attributes.
        
        There is no official standard on ``__author__`` usage. It is used largely by
        convention. Guido had this to say `back in 2001`__:
        
            Anothor source of discomfort is that there's absolutely no standard for
            this kind of meta-data variables.  We've got __version__, and I believe we
            once agreed on that (in 1994 or so :-).  But __author__?  __credits__?
            What next -- __cute_signoff__?
        
        __ https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2001-March/013328.html
        
        This extension can therefore be configured to explicitly require or forbid
        ``__author__`` attributes. By default, ``__author__`` is considered optional.
        
        If the ``__author__`` attribute is allowed, its value can also be validated
        using a configurable regular expression pattern.

        Installation
        ------------
        
        Install from PyPI using ``pip``:
        
        .. code-block:: sh
        
            $ pip install flake8-author
        
        The extension will be activated automatically by ``flake8``. You can verify
        that it has been loaded by inspecting the ``flake8 --version`` string.
        
        .. code-block:: sh
        
            $ flake8 --version
            3.4.1 (author: 1.1.4, mccabe: 0.6.1, pycodestyle: 2.3.1, pyflakes: 1.5.0) CPython 2.7.13 on Darwin
        
        
        Error Codes
        -----------
        
        This extension adds three new `error codes`_ (using the ``A40`` prefix):
        
        - ``A400``: a module-level ``__author__`` attribute is required
        - ``A401``: ``__author__`` attributes are not allowed
        - ``A402``: ``__author__`` attribute value does not match *pattern*
        
        .. _error codes: http://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/user/error-codes.html
        
        Configuration
        -------------
        
        Configuration values are specified in the ``[flake8]`` section of your `config
        file`_ or as command line arguments (e.g. ``--author-attribute=required``).
        
        - ``author-attribute``: "optional", "required", "forbidden" (default: optional)
        - ``author-pattern``: ``__author__`` validation `re`_ pattern (default: ``''``)
        
        .. _config file: http://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/user/configuration.html
