Visual Studio code with PyLint and autoPep8: How can I avoid PyLint to complain about my line length?

I recently switched to Visual Studio Code and I have to say I love it so far.

I'm working on a Python project, which includes the pip packages pylint and autopep8 and I configured VSCode to format the code according to these packages.

Only problem is: In the Python project I'm working on the line length is 100. So all my code looks like this:

The error says: `E501:line too long (97 > 79 characters)

The error says: E501:line too long (97 > 79 characters). Here are my VSCode settings:

{
  "python.pythonPath": "~/.envs/myProject/bin/python",
  "python.linting.pep8Enabled": true,
  "python.linting.pylintPath": "~/.envs/myProject/bin/pylint",
  "python.linting.pylintArgs": ["--load-plugins", "pylint_django", "--max-line-length=100"],
  "python.formatting.autopep8Args": ["--max-line-length=100"],
  "python.linting.pylintEnabled": true,
  "files.exclude": {
    "**/.git": true,
    "**/.svn": true,
    "**/.hg": true,
    "**/CVS": true,
    "**/.DS_Store": true,
    ".vscode": true,
    "**/*.pyc": true
  }
}

These settings at least now ensure that format on save keeps the lines at 100 max and does not wrap all my files lines to 79. Still it would be awesome without the warnings.

How do I disable these linter warnings?

I figured out how to do this. Add this line to your settings:

"python.linting.pep8Args": ["--max-line-length=100"],

For pycodestyle in Vscode 1.15.1:

"python.linting.pycodestyleArgs": ["--max-line-length=100"],
user_1627110

As of 2021 (Pylint reference), add this to your .vscode/settings.json file:

"python.linting.pylintArgs": ["--max-line-length=100"]
user_19602310

2020 version:

Add the following entry to your settings.json file

"python.linting.pylintArgs": ["-d", "C0301"],
user_59877870

For me the following worked. (VSCode version == 1.41.1)

Go to Settings.

Search "pylint".

Scroll down to "Python > Linting: Pycodestyle Args"

Click "Add Item"

Type this in, "python.linting.pep8Args": ["--max-line-length=200"]

Adjust the max-line-length to your desired length.
