## Pylint
-[Pylint](http://www.pylint.org/) is an external static source code analyzer used to augment Python analysis. To include Pylint issues, first generate an issues report:
+[Pylint](http://www.pylint.org/) is an external static source code analyzer, it can be used in conjunction with SonarPython.
+
+You can enable Pylint rules directly in your Python Quality Profile. Their rule keys start with "*Pylint:*".
+
+Once the rules are activated you should run Pylint and import its report:
```
pylint <module_or_package> -r n --msg-template="{path}:{line}: [{msg_id}({symbol}), {obj}] {msg}" > <report_file>
```
-Then pass it in to analysis with the `sonar.python.pylint.reportPath` property.
-
-The analyzer will execute Pylint for you if you haven't specified the path to a Pylint report. The path to your installation of `pylint` can be tuned using the `sonar.python.pylint` property, and non-default a properties file can be specified with `sonar.python.pylint_config`.
-
+Then pass the generated report path to analysis via the `sonar.python.pylint.reportPath` property.
