Pylint showing invalid variable name in output

Question

I made a simple python script to post data on a website.

#Imports

url_to_short = sys.argv[1]

post_url = \'https://www.googleapis.com/urlshortener/v1/url\'
         


        

Answer 1

As your code is not contained in a class or function it is expecting those variables to be constants and as such they should be uppercase.

You can read PEP8 for further information.
