# 🧩 pylint-docstring-checker
A **Pylint plugin** that checks Python docstrings for **Google Python Style Guide** compliance
and detects **non-English (Vietnamese) docstrings**.
This plugin helps teams enforce consistent documentation and quality across Python projects.
---
## ✨ Features
✅ **Google Python Style Guide** validation:
- Checks for correct `Args:`, `Returns:`, and `Raises:` sections.
- Ensures the **summary line** exists, starts with a capital letter, and ends with a period.
- Requires a blank line between summary and detail sections (PEP-257 friendly).
🈲 **Language detection**:
- Warns if a docstring contains Vietnamese characters.
📊 **Summary report** at the end of each Pylint run:
```
📊 Docstring Summary Report:
- Total functions: 10
- With docstring: 8
- Without docstring: 2
- Vietnamese docstrings: 1
- English/Japanese docstrings: 7
- Google-style compliant: 4
- Google Style Coverage: 50.00%
- Coverage: 80.00%
