Change default python coding style

Accepted answer is outdated. Now its much simpler:

Use pylint --generate-rcfile > ~/.pylintrc to get a standard pylintrc.

Edit the file, go to the [BASIC] section, and change the different ...-naming-styles to camelCase.

Use pylint --generate-rcfile > ~/.pylintrc to get a standard pylintrc.

Edit the file, go to the [BASIC] section, and change the following regexps:

• function-rgx=_?_?[a-z][A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$
• method-rgx=_?_?[a-z][A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$
• attr-rgx=_?_?[a-z][A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$
• argument-rgx=_?[a-z][A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$
• variable-rgx=_?[a-z][A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$
• inlinevar-rgx=_?[a-z][A-Za-z0-9]{1,30}$

You may also want to change module-rgx while you are at it, and look around for other settings that you may want to customize to suite your style.
