Is it possible to ignore one single specific line with Pylint?

I have the following line in my header: import config.logging_settings This actually changes my Python logging settings, but Pylint thinks it is an unused import. I do not want to remove unused-import warnings in general, so is it possible to just ignore this one specific line? I wouldn't mind having a .pylintrc for this project, so answers changing a configuration file will be accepted. Otherwise, something like this will also be appreciated: import config.logging_settings # pylint: disable-this-line-in-some-way
Message control is documented in the pylint FAQ: Is it possible to locally disable a particular message? Yes, this feature has been added in Pylint 0.11. This may be done by adding "# pylint: disable=some-message,another-one" at the desired block level or at the end of the desired line of code. You can use the message code or the symbolic names. For example, def test(): # Disable all the no-member violations in this function # pylint: disable=no-member ... # pylint: enable=no-member apply to a specific line only: global VAR # pylint: disable=global-statement or for less verbosity, disable the ONLY following line (pylint 2.10+): # pylint: disable-next=global-statement global VAR Pylint's manual also has further examples. There is a wiki that documents all pylint messages and their codes.
