## Change Log
|
||||
|
||||
### 18.3a4 (unreleased)
|
||||
|
||||
* automatic detection of deprecated Python 2 forms of print statements
|
||||
and exec statements in the formatted file (#49)
|
||||
|
||||
* use proper spaces for complex expressions in default values of typed
|
||||
function arguments (#60)
|
||||
|
||||
* only return exit code 1 when --check is used (#50)
|
||||
|
||||
* don't remove single trailing commas from square bracket indexing
|
||||
(#59)
|
||||
|
||||
* don't omit whitespace if the previous factor leaf wasn't a math
|
||||
operator (#55)
|
||||
|
||||
* omit extra space in kwarg unpacking if it's the first argument (#46)
|
||||
|
||||
* omit extra space in [Sphinx auto-attribute comments](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/ext/autodoc.html#directive-autoattribute)
|
||||
(#68)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 18.3a3
|
||||
|
||||
* don't remove single empty lines outside of bracketed expressions
|
||||
(#19)
|
||||
|
||||
* added ability to pipe formatting from stdin to stdin (#25)
|
||||
|
||||
* restored ability to format code with legacy usage of `async` as
|
||||
a name (#20, #42)
|
||||
|
||||
* even better handling of numpy-style array indexing (#33, again)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 18.3a2
|
||||
|
||||
* changed positioning of binary operators to occur at beginning of lines
|
||||
instead of at the end, following [a recent change to PEP8](https://github.com/python/peps/commit/c59c4376ad233a62ca4b3a6060c81368bd21e85b)
|
||||
(#21)
|
||||
|
||||
* ignore empty bracket pairs while splitting. This avoids very weirdly
|
||||
looking formattings (#34, #35)
|
||||
|
||||
* remove a trailing comma if there is a single argument to a call
|
||||
|
||||
* if top level functions were separated by a comment, don't put four
|
||||
empty lines after the upper function
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed unstable formatting of newlines with imports
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed unintentional folding of post scriptum standalone comments
|
||||
into last statement if it was a simple statement (#18, #28)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed missing space in numpy-style array indexing (#33)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed spurious space after star-based unary expressions (#31)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 18.3a1
|
||||
|
||||
* added `--check`
|
||||
|
||||
* only put trailing commas in function signatures and calls if it's
|
||||
safe to do so. If the file is Python 3.6+ it's always safe, otherwise
|
||||
only safe if there are no `*args` or `**kwargs` used in the signature
|
||||
or call. (#8)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed invalid spacing of dots in relative imports (#6, #13)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed invalid splitting after comma on unpacked variables in for-loops
|
||||
(#23)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed spurious space in parenthesized set expressions (#7)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed spurious space after opening parentheses and in default
|
||||
arguments (#14, #17)
|
||||
|
||||
* fixed spurious space after unary operators when the operand was
|
||||
a complex expression (#15)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### 18.3a0
|
||||
|
||||
* first published version, Happy 🍰 Day 2018!
|
||||
|
||||
* alpha quality
|
||||
|
||||
* date-versioned (see: https://calver.org/)

Black
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
**Black** is the uncompromising Python code formatter.
|
||||
|
||||
By using *Black*, you
|
||||
agree to cease control over minutiae of hand-formatting. In return,
|
||||
*Black* gives you speed, determinism, and freedom from `pycodestyle`
|
||||
nagging about formatting. You will save time and mental energy for
|
||||
more important matters.
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* makes code review faster by producing the smallest diffs
|
||||
possible. Blackened code looks the same regardless of the project
|
||||
you're reading. Formatting becomes transparent after a while and you
|
||||
can focus on the content instead.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
Black is an early pre-release.

# Technical Overview
|
||||
|
||||
## The philosophy behind *Black*
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* reformats entire files in place. It is not configurable. It
|
||||
doesn't take previous formatting into account. It doesn't reformat
|
||||
blocks that start with `# fmt: off` and end with `# fmt: on`. It also
|
||||
recognizes [YAPF](https://github.com/google/yapf)'s block comments to
|
||||
the same effect, as a courtesy for straddling code.
|
||||
|
||||
## How *Black* formats files
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* ignores previous formatting and applies uniform horizontal
|
||||
and vertical whitespace to your code. The rules for horizontal
|
||||
whitespace are pretty obvious and can be summarized as: do whatever
|
||||
makes `pycodestyle` happy.
|
||||
|
||||
As for vertical whitespace, *Black* tries to render one full expression
|
||||
or simple statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length,
|
||||
great.
|
||||
|
||||
```py3
|
||||
# in:
|
||||
|
||||
l = [1,
|
||||
2,
|
||||
3,
|
||||
]
|
||||
|
||||
# out:
|
||||
|
||||
l = [1, 2, 3]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If not, *Black* will look at the contents of the first outer matching
|
||||
brackets and put that in a separate indented line.
|
||||
|
||||
```py3
|
||||
# in:
|
||||
|
||||
l = [[n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]]
|
||||
|
||||
# out:
|
||||
|
||||
l = [
|
||||
[n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]
|
||||
]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If that still doesn't fit the bill, it will decompose the internal
|
||||
expression further using the same rule, indenting matching brackets
|
||||
every time. If the contents of the matching brackets pair are
|
||||
comma-separated (like an argument list, or a dict literal, and so on)
|
||||
then *Black* will first try to keep them on the same line with the
|
||||
matching brackets. If that doesn't work, it will put all of them in
|
||||
separate lines.
|
||||
|
||||
```py3
|
||||
# in:
|
||||
|
||||
def very_important_function(template: str, *variables, file: os.PathLike, debug: bool = False):
|
||||
"""Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`."""
|
||||
with open(file, 'w') as f:
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
# out:
|
||||
|
||||
def very_important_function(
|
||||
template: str,
|
||||
*variables,
|
||||
file: os.PathLike,
|
||||
debug: bool = False,
|
||||
):
|
||||
"""Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`."""
|
||||
with open(file, 'w') as f:
|
||||
...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You might have noticed that closing brackets are always dedented and
|
||||
that a trailing comma is always added. Such formatting produces smaller
|
||||
diffs; when you add or remove an element, it's always just one line.
|
||||
Also, having the closing bracket dedented provides a clear delimiter
|
||||
between two distinct sections of the code that otherwise share the same
|
||||
indentation level (like the arguments list and the docstring in the
|
||||
example above).
|
||||
|
||||
Unnecessary trailing commas are removed if an expression fits in one
|
||||
line. This makes it 1% more likely that your line won't exceed the
|
||||
allotted line length limit.
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* avoids spurious vertical whitespace. This is in the spirit of
|
||||
PEP 8 which says that in-function vertical whitespace should only be
|
||||
used sparingly. One exception is control flow statements: *Black* will
|
||||
always emit an extra empty line after ``return``, ``raise``, ``break``,
|
||||
``continue``, and ``yield``. This is to make changes in control flow
|
||||
more prominent to readers of your code.
|
||||
|
||||
That's it. The rest of the whitespace formatting rules follow PEP 8 and
|
||||
are designed to keep `pycodestyle` quiet.
|
||||
|
||||
## Line length
|
||||
|
||||
You probably noticed the peculiar default line length. *Black* defaults
|
||||
to 88 characters per line, which happens to be 10% over 80. This number
|
||||
was found to produce significantly shorter files than sticking with 80
|
||||
(the most popular), or even 79 (used by the standard library). In
|
||||
general, [90-ish seems like the wise choice](https://youtu.be/wf-BqAjZb8M?t=260).
|
||||
|
||||
If you're paid by the line of code you write, you can pass
|
||||
`--line-length` with a lower number. *Black* will try to respect that.
|
||||
However, sometimes it won't be able to without breaking other rules. In
|
||||
those rare cases, auto-formatted code will exceed your allotted limit.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also increase it, but remember that people with sight disabilities
|
||||
find it harder to work with line lengths exceeding 100 characters.
|
||||
It also adversely affects side-by-side diff review on typical screen
|
||||
resolutions. Long lines also make it harder to present code neatly
|
||||
in documentation or talk slides.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using Flake8, you can bump `max-line-length` to 88 and forget
|
||||
about it. Alternatively, use [Bugbear](https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8-bugbear)'s
|
||||
B950 warning instead of E501 and keep the max line length at 80 which
|
||||
you are probably already using. You'd do it like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
[flake8]
|
||||
max-line-length = 80
|
||||
...
|
||||
select = C,E,F,W,B,B950
|
||||
ignore = E501
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You'll find *Black*'s own .flake8 config file is configured like this.
|
||||
If you're curious about the reasoning behind B950, Bugbear's documentation
|
||||
explains it. The tl;dr is "it's like highway speed limits, we won't
|
||||
bother you if you overdo it by a few km/h".
|
||||
|
||||
## Empty lines
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* will allow single empty lines left by the original editors,
|
||||
except when they're added within parenthesized expressions. Since such
|
||||
expressions are always reformatted to fit minimal space, this whitespace
|
||||
is lost.
|
||||
|
||||
It will also insert proper spacing before and after function definitions.
|
||||
It's one line before and after inner functions and two lines before and
|
||||
after module-level functions. *Black* will put those empty lines also
|
||||
between the function definition and any standalone comments that
|
||||
immediately precede the given function. If you want to comment on the
|
||||
entire function, use a docstring or put a leading comment in the function
|
||||
body.
|
||||
|
||||
## Editor integration
|
||||
|
||||
* Visual Studio Code: [joslarson.black-vscode](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joslarson.black-vscode)
|
||||
|
||||
Any tool that can pipe code through *Black* using its stdio mode (just
|
||||
[use `-` as the file name](http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/special-chars.html#DASHREF2)).
|
||||
The formatted code will be returned on stdout (unless `--check` was
|
||||
passed). *Black* will still emit messages on stderr but that shouldn't
|
||||
affect your use case.
|
||||
|
||||
There is currently no integration with any other text editors. Vim and
|
||||
Atom/Nuclide integration is planned by the author, others will require
|
||||
external contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
Patches welcome! ✨ 🍰 ✨

# Installation and Usage
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* can be installed by running `pip install black`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
To get started right away with sensible defaults:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
black {source_file}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Command line options
|
||||
|
||||
Some basics about the command line help, `black --help`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Usage: black [OPTIONS] [SRC]...
|
||||
|
||||
The uncompromising code formatter.
|
||||
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
-l, --line-length INTEGER How many character per line to allow. [default:
|
||||
88]
|
||||
--check Don't write back the files, just return the
|
||||
status. Return code 0 means nothing would
|
||||
change. Return code 1 means some files would be
|
||||
reformatted. Return code 123 means there was an
|
||||
internal error.
|
||||
--fast / --safe If --fast given, skip temporary sanity checks.
|
||||
[default: --safe]
|
||||
--version Show the version and exit.
|
||||
--help Show this message and exit.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`Black` is a well-behaved Unix-style command-line tool:
|
||||
|
||||
* it does nothing if no sources are passed to it;
|
||||
* it will read from standard input and write to standard output if `-`
|
||||
is used as the filename;
|
||||
* it only outputs messages to users on standard error;
|
||||
* exits with code 0 unless an internal error occured (or `--check` was
|
||||
used).
|
||||
|
||||
## Important note about the pre-release of Black
|
||||
|
||||
*Black* can already successfully format itself and the standard library.
|
||||
It also sports a decent test suite. However, it is still very new.
|
||||
Things will probably be wonky for a while. This is made explicit by the
|
||||
"Alpha" trove classifier, as well as by the "a" in the version number.
|
||||
What this means for you is that **until the formatter becomes stable,
|
||||
you should expect some formatting to change in the future**.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, as a temporary safety measure, *Black* will check that the
|
||||
reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is equivalent to the
|
||||
original. This slows it down. If you're feeling confident, use
|
||||
``--fast``.
