Thank's a lot, really helpful info! 👍

thanks for helps!!

Created a small repo for pycharm external tools (currently flake8 and black supported ) for applying to a code selection from pycharm.
Maybe this will be somewhat helpful to anyone: https://github.com/haim0n/pycharm_ext_tools

Thank you, @haim0n!

Thank you, worked like a charm!

Cheers , glad to help :)

Just bear in mind that flake8 deprecated the support for --diff option in its next versions: https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/release-notes/5.0.0.html#deprecations

This was useful but it should be noted that it only logs the Flake8 output in the terminal. This library worked well for me to integrate the output into Pycharm's Pylint plugin.
