pylama VS isort

Lint your code. I recommend pylama.

Linters analyze code to detect various categories of issues like logistical issue and stylistic issues. Some popular linters are Pylint, pycodestyle, Flake8 and Pylama.

Formatters automatically format your code based on a style guide. Some popular formatters are Black, YAPF, autopep8 and isort.

If you like to keep your imports in tact, there are also rules to enforce a specific order amongst them. One tool that does that is isort. Isort follows the order:

A formatter arranges our code so that it's more readable on the screen, but does not change what our code does. Black and isort are formatters.

Run syntax checks, including isort through flake8, and generate a report for each sub-project.

isort is also a similar tool to flake8, this tool sorts imports alphabetically, and automatically separated into sections and by type.
