How to add a check?

Each of our checks is a file located in the /path/to/your/site-packages/django-check-seo/checks/ folder (see wiki - How does it work?), and need to follow some guidelines:

Custom checks

The launch_checks.py file tries to import the checks_list folder located in your django project (same level than manage.py).

If it does not exist, nothing happens.

If it exists, it will execute the important & run functions in each of the modules that start with checks..

To properly reference the modules, you will need to create a __init__.py file in your folder (otherwise there will be checks in sys.modules, and not checks.yourmodule).

__init__.py

# Standard Library
import glob
from os.path import basename, dirname, isfile, join
import sys, json

from django.conf import settings

# list files
modules = glob.glob(join(dirname(__file__), "*.py"))

__all__ = []

# add them to __all__ so they can be imported
for module in modules:
    if (
        isfile(module)
        and not module.endswith("__init__.py")
    ):
        __all__.append(basename(module)[:-3])

Example of configuration:
