16 *Black* is the uncompromising Python code formatter. By using it, you
17 agree to cede control over minutiae of hand-formatting. In return,
18 *Black* gives you speed, determinism, and freedom from `pycodestyle`
19 nagging about formatting. You will save time and mental energy for
20 more important matters.
22 Blackened code looks the same regardless of the project you're reading.
23 Formatting becomes transparent after a while and you can focus on the
26 *Black* makes code review faster by producing the smallest diffs
30 ## Installation and usage
34 *Black* can be installed by running `pip install black`. It requires
35 Python 3.6.0+ to run but you can reformat Python 2 code with it, too.
40 To get started right away with sensible defaults:
43 black {source_file_or_directory}
46 ### Command line options
48 Black doesn't provide many options. You can list them by running
52 black [OPTIONS] [SRC]...
55 -l, --line-length INTEGER Where to wrap around. [default: 88]
56 --check Don't write the files back, just return the
57 status. Return code 0 means nothing would
58 change. Return code 1 means some files would be
59 reformatted. Return code 123 means there was an
61 --diff Don't write the files back, just output a diff
62 for each file on stdout.
63 --fast / --safe If --fast given, skip temporary sanity checks.
65 -q, --quiet Don't emit non-error messages to stderr. Errors
66 are still emitted, silence those with
68 --version Show the version and exit.
69 --help Show this message and exit.
72 *Black* is a well-behaved Unix-style command-line tool:
73 * it does nothing if no sources are passed to it;
74 * it will read from standard input and write to standard output if `-`
75 is used as the filename;
76 * it only outputs messages to users on standard error;
77 * exits with code 0 unless an internal error occurred (or `--check` was
81 ### NOTE: This is a beta product
83 *Black* is already successfully used by several projects, small and big.
84 It also sports a decent test suite. However, it is still very new.
85 Things will probably be wonky for a while. This is made explicit by the
86 "Beta" trove classifier, as well as by the "b" in the version number.
87 What this means for you is that **until the formatter becomes stable,
88 you should expect some formatting to change in the future**. That being
89 said, no drastic stylistic changes are planned, mostly responses to bug
92 Also, as a temporary safety measure, *Black* will check that the
93 reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is equivalent to the
94 original. This slows it down. If you're feeling confident, use
98 ## The *Black* code style
100 *Black* reformats entire files in place. It is not configurable. It
101 doesn't take previous formatting into account. It doesn't reformat
102 blocks that start with `# fmt: off` and end with `# fmt: on`. It also
103 recognizes [YAPF](https://github.com/google/yapf)'s block comments to
104 the same effect, as a courtesy for straddling code.
107 ### How *Black* wraps lines
109 *Black* ignores previous formatting and applies uniform horizontal
110 and vertical whitespace to your code. The rules for horizontal
111 whitespace can be summarized as: do whatever makes `pycodestyle` happy.
112 The coding style used by *Black* can be viewed as a strict subset of
115 As for vertical whitespace, *Black* tries to render one full expression
116 or simple statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length,
131 If not, *Black* will look at the contents of the first outer matching
132 brackets and put that in a separate indented line.
136 TracebackException.from_exception(exc, limit, lookup_lines, capture_locals)
140 TracebackException.from_exception(
141 exc, limit, lookup_lines, capture_locals
145 If that still doesn't fit the bill, it will decompose the internal
146 expression further using the same rule, indenting matching brackets
147 every time. If the contents of the matching brackets pair are
148 comma-separated (like an argument list, or a dict literal, and so on)
149 then *Black* will first try to keep them on the same line with the
150 matching brackets. If that doesn't work, it will put all of them in
155 def very_important_function(template: str, *variables, file: os.PathLike, debug: bool = False):
156 """Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`."""
157 with open(file, 'w') as f:
162 def very_important_function(
168 """Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`."""
169 with open(file, "w") as f:
173 You might have noticed that closing brackets are always dedented and
174 that a trailing comma is always added. Such formatting produces smaller
175 diffs; when you add or remove an element, it's always just one line.
176 Also, having the closing bracket dedented provides a clear delimiter
177 between two distinct sections of the code that otherwise share the same
178 indentation level (like the arguments list and the docstring in the
181 If a data structure literal (tuple, list, set, dict) or a line of "from"
182 imports cannot fit in the allotted length, it's always split into one
183 element per line. This minimizes diffs as well as enables readers of
184 code to find which commit introduced a particular entry. This also
185 makes *Black* compatible with [isort](https://pypi.org/p/isort/). Use
186 `multi_line_output=3`, `include_trailing_comma=True`,
187 `force_grid_wrap=0`, and `line_length=88` in your isort config.
192 You probably noticed the peculiar default line length. *Black* defaults
193 to 88 characters per line, which happens to be 10% over 80. This number
194 was found to produce significantly shorter files than sticking with 80
195 (the most popular), or even 79 (used by the standard library). In
196 general, [90-ish seems like the wise choice](https://youtu.be/wf-BqAjZb8M?t=260).
198 If you're paid by the line of code you write, you can pass
199 `--line-length` with a lower number. *Black* will try to respect that.
200 However, sometimes it won't be able to without breaking other rules. In
201 those rare cases, auto-formatted code will exceed your allotted limit.
203 You can also increase it, but remember that people with sight disabilities
204 find it harder to work with line lengths exceeding 100 characters.
205 It also adversely affects side-by-side diff review on typical screen
206 resolutions. Long lines also make it harder to present code neatly
207 in documentation or talk slides.
209 If you're using Flake8, you can bump `max-line-length` to 88 and forget
210 about it. Alternatively, use [Bugbear](https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8-bugbear)'s
211 B950 warning instead of E501 and keep the max line length at 80 which
212 you are probably already using. You'd do it like this:
217 select = C,E,F,W,B,B950
221 You'll find *Black*'s own .flake8 config file is configured like this.
222 If you're curious about the reasoning behind B950, Bugbear's documentation
223 explains it. The tl;dr is "it's like highway speed limits, we won't
224 bother you if you overdo it by a few km/h".
229 *Black* avoids spurious vertical whitespace. This is in the spirit of
230 PEP 8 which says that in-function vertical whitespace should only be
233 *Black* will allow single empty lines inside functions, and single and
234 double empty lines on module level left by the original editors, except
235 when they're within parenthesized expressions. Since such expressions
236 are always reformatted to fit minimal space, this whitespace is lost.
238 It will also insert proper spacing before and after function definitions.
239 It's one line before and after inner functions and two lines before and
240 after module-level functions. *Black* will not put empty lines between
241 function/class definitions and standalone comments that immediately precede
242 the given function/class.
247 *Black* will add trailing commas to expressions that are split
248 by comma where each element is on its own line. This includes function
251 Unnecessary trailing commas are removed if an expression fits in one
252 line. This makes it 1% more likely that your line won't exceed the
253 allotted line length limit. Moreover, in this scenario, if you added
254 another argument to your call, you'd probably fit it in the same line
255 anyway. That doesn't make diffs any larger.
257 One exception to removing trailing commas is tuple expressions with
258 just one element. In this case *Black* won't touch the single trailing
259 comma as this would unexpectedly change the underlying data type. Note
260 that this is also the case when commas are used while indexing. This is
261 a tuple in disguise: ```numpy_array[3, ]```.
263 One exception to adding trailing commas is function signatures
264 containing `*`, `*args`, or `**kwargs`. In this case a trailing comma
265 is only safe to use on Python 3.6. *Black* will detect if your file is
266 already 3.6+ only and use trailing commas in this situation. If you
267 wonder how it knows, it looks for f-strings and existing use of trailing
268 commas in function signatures that have stars in them. In other words,
269 if you'd like a trailing comma in this situation and *Black* didn't
270 recognize it was safe to do so, put it there manually and *Black* will
276 *Black* prefers double quotes (`"` and `"""`) over single quotes (`'`
277 and `'''`). It will replace the latter with the former as long as it
278 does not result in more backslash escapes than before.
280 *Black* also standardizes string prefixes, making them always lowercase.
281 On top of that, if your code is already Python 3.6+ only or it's using
282 the `unicode_literals` future import, *Black* will remove `u` from the
283 string prefix as it is meaningless in those scenarios.
285 The main reason to standardize on a single form of quotes is aesthetics.
286 Having one kind of quotes everywhere reduces reader distraction.
287 It will also enable a future version of *Black* to merge consecutive
288 string literals that ended up on the same line (see
289 [#26](https://github.com/ambv/black/issues/26) for details).
291 Why settle on double quotes? They anticipate apostrophes in English
292 text. They match the docstring standard described in PEP 257. An
293 empty string in double quotes (`""`) is impossible to confuse with
294 a one double-quote regardless of fonts and syntax highlighting used.
295 On top of this, double quotes for strings are consistent with C which
296 Python interacts a lot with.
298 On certain keyboard layouts like US English, typing single quotes is
299 a bit easier than double quotes. The latter requires use of the Shift
300 key. My recommendation here is to keep using whatever is faster to type
301 and let *Black* handle the transformation.
304 ### Line breaks & binary operators
306 *Black* will break a line before a binary operator when splitting a block
307 of code over multiple lines. This is so that *Black* is compliant with the
308 recent changes in the [PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#should-a-line-break-before-or-after-a-binary-operator)
309 style guide, which emphasizes that this approach improves readability.
311 This behaviour may raise ``W503 line break before binary operator`` warnings in
312 style guide enforcement tools like Flake8. Since ``W503`` is not PEP 8 compliant,
313 you should tell Flake8 to ignore these warnings.
318 PEP 8 [recommends](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#whitespace-in-expressions-and-statements)
319 to treat ``:`` in slices as a binary operator with the lowest priority, and to
320 leave an equal amount of space on either side, except if a parameter is omitted
321 (e.g. ``ham[1 + 1 :]``). It also states that for extended slices, both ``:``
322 operators have to have the same amount of spacing, except if a parameter is
323 omitted (``ham[1 + 1 ::]``). *Black* enforces these rules consistently.
325 This behaviour may raise ``E203 whitespace before ':'`` warnings in style guide
326 enforcement tools like Flake8. Since ``E203`` is not PEP 8 compliant, you should
327 tell Flake8 to ignore these warnings.
332 Some parentheses are optional in the Python grammar. Any expression can
333 be wrapped in a pair of parentheses to form an atom. There are a few
338 - `for (...) in (...):`
339 - `assert (...), (...)`
340 - `from X import (...)`
343 - `target: type = (...)`
344 - `some, *un, packing = (...)`
345 - `augmented += (...)`
347 In those cases, parentheses are removed when the entire statement fits
348 in one line, or if the inner expression doesn't have any delimiters to
349 further split on. If there is only a single delimiter and the expression
350 starts or ends with a bracket, the parenthesis can also be successfully
351 omitted since the existing bracket pair will organize the expression
352 neatly anyway. Otherwise, the parentheses are added.
354 Please note that *Black* does not add or remove any additional nested
355 parentheses that you might want to have for clarity or further
356 code organization. For example those parentheses are not going to be
359 return not (this or that)
360 decision = (maybe.this() and values > 0) or (maybe.that() and values < 0)
366 Some popular APIs, like ORMs, use call chaining. This API style is known
367 as a [fluent interface](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface).
368 *Black* formats those treating dots that follow a call or an indexing
369 operation like a very low priority delimiter. It's easier to show the
370 behavior than to explain it. Look at the example:
372 def example(session):
374 session.query(models.Customer.id)
376 models.Customer.account_id == account_id,
377 models.Customer.email == email_address,
379 .order_by(models.Customer.id.asc())
385 ### Typing stub files
387 PEP 484 describes the syntax for type hints in Python. One of the
388 use cases for typing is providing type annotations for modules which
389 cannot contain them directly (they might be written in C, or they might
390 be third-party, or their implementation may be overly dynamic, and so on).
392 To solve this, [stub files with the `.pyi` file
393 extension](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/#stub-files) can be
394 used to describe typing information for an external module. Those stub
395 files omit the implementation of classes and functions they
396 describe, instead they only contain the structure of the file (listing
397 globals, functions, and classes with their members). The recommended
398 code style for those files is more terse than PEP 8:
400 * prefer `...` on the same line as the class/function signature;
401 * avoid vertical whitespace between consecutive module-level functions,
402 names, or methods and fields within a single class;
403 * use a single blank line between top-level class definitions, or none
404 if the classes are very small.
406 *Black* enforces the above rules. There are additional guidelines for
407 formatting `.pyi` file that are not enforced yet but might be in
408 a future version of the formatter:
410 * all function bodies should be empty (contain `...` instead of the body);
411 * do not use docstrings;
412 * prefer `...` over `pass`;
413 * for arguments with a default, use `...` instead of the actual default;
414 * avoid using string literals in type annotations, stub files support
415 forward references natively (like Python 3.7 code with `from __future__
416 import annotations`);
417 * use variable annotations instead of type comments, even for stubs that
418 target older versions of Python;
419 * for arguments that default to `None`, use `Optional[]` explicitly;
420 * use `float` instead of `Union[int, float]`.
423 ## Editor integration
427 Use [proofit404/blacken](https://github.com/proofit404/blacken).
438 2. Locate your `black` installation folder.
440 On macOS / Linux / BSD:
444 /usr/local/bin/black # possible location
451 %LocalAppData%\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts\black.exe # possible location
454 3. Open External tools in PyCharm with `File -> Settings -> Tools -> External Tools`.
456 4. Click the + icon to add a new external tool with the following values:
458 - Description: Black is the uncompromising Python code formatter.
459 - Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
460 - Arguments: $FilePath$
462 5. Format the currently opened file by selecting `Tools -> External Tools -> black`.
463 - Alternatively, you can set a keyboard shortcut by navigating to `Preferences -> Keymap`.
468 Commands and shortcuts:
470 * `,=` or `:Black` to format the entire file (ranges not supported);
471 * `:BlackUpgrade` to upgrade *Black* inside the virtualenv;
472 * `:BlackVersion` to get the current version of *Black* inside the
476 * `g:black_fast` (defaults to `0`)
477 * `g:black_linelength` (defaults to `88`)
478 * `g:black_virtualenv` (defaults to `~/.vim/black`)
480 To install with [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug):
486 or with [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim):
492 or you can copy the plugin from [plugin/black.vim](https://github.com/ambv/black/tree/master/plugin/black.vim).
493 Let me know if this requires any changes to work with Vim 8's builtin
494 `packadd`, or Pathogen, and so on.
496 This plugin **requires Vim 7.0+ built with Python 3.6+ support**. It
497 needs Python 3.6 to be able to run *Black* inside the Vim process which
498 is much faster than calling an external command.
500 On first run, the plugin creates its own virtualenv using the right
501 Python version and automatically installs *Black*. You can upgrade it later
502 by calling `:BlackUpgrade` and restarting Vim.
504 If you need to do anything special to make your virtualenv work and
505 install *Black* (for example you want to run a version from master),
506 create a virtualenv manually and point `g:black_virtualenv` to it.
507 The plugin will use it.
509 **How to get Vim with Python 3.6?**
510 On Ubuntu 17.10 Vim comes with Python 3.6 by default.
511 On macOS with Homebrew run: `brew install vim --with-python3`.
512 When building Vim from source, use:
513 `./configure --enable-python3interp=yes`. There's many guides online how
517 ### Visual Studio Code
519 Use [joslarson.black-vscode](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=joslarson.black-vscode).
524 Use [sublack plugin](https://github.com/jgirardet/sublack).
527 ### IPython Notebook Magic
529 Use [blackcellmagic](https://github.com/csurfer/blackcellmagic).
534 Atom/Nuclide integration is planned by the author, others will
535 require external contributions.
537 Patches welcome! ✨ 🍰 ✨
539 Any tool that can pipe code through *Black* using its stdio mode (just
540 [use `-` as the file name](http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/special-chars.html#DASHREF2)).
541 The formatted code will be returned on stdout (unless `--check` was
542 passed). *Black* will still emit messages on stderr but that shouldn't
543 affect your use case.
545 This can be used for example with PyCharm's [File Watchers](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/file-watchers.html).
548 ## Version control integration
550 Use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/). Once you [have it
551 installed](https://pre-commit.com/#install), add this to the
552 `.pre-commit-config.yaml` in your repository:
555 - repo: https://github.com/ambv/black
559 args: [--line-length=88, --safe]
560 python_version: python3.6
562 Then run `pre-commit install` and you're ready to go.
564 `args` in the above config is optional but shows you how you can change
565 the line length if you really need to. If you're already using Python
566 3.7, switch the `python_version` accordingly. Finally, `stable` is a tag
567 that is pinned to the latest release on PyPI. If you'd rather run on
568 master, this is also an option.
571 ## Ignoring non-modified files
573 *Black* remembers files it already formatted, unless the `--diff` flag is used or
574 code is passed via standard input. This information is stored per-user. The exact
575 location of the file depends on the black version and the system on which black
576 is run. The file is non-portable. The standard location on common operating systems
579 * Windows: `C:\\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\black\black\Cache\<version>\cache.<line-length>.pickle`
580 * macOS: `/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`
581 * Linux: `/home/<username>/.cache/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`

621 ## Contributing to Black
623 In terms of inspiration, *Black* is about as configurable as *gofmt*.
626 Bug reports and fixes are always welcome! However, before you suggest a
627 new feature or configuration knob, ask yourself why you want it. If it
628 enables better integration with some workflow, fixes an inconsistency,
629 speeds things up, and so on - go for it! On the other hand, if your
630 answer is "because I don't like a particular formatting" then you're not
631 ready to embrace *Black* yet. Such changes are unlikely to get accepted.
632 You can still try but prepare to be disappointed.

707 * `--check` and `--diff` are no longer mutually exclusive (#149)
709 * generalized star expression handling, including double stars; this
710 fixes multiplication making expressions "unsafe" for trailing commas (#132)
712 * Black no longer enforces putting empty lines behind control flow statements
715 * Black now splits imports like "Mode 3 + trailing comma" of isort (#127)
717 * fixed comment indentation when a standalone comment closes a block (#16, #32)
719 * fixed standalone comments receiving extra empty lines if immediately preceding
720 a class, def, or decorator (#56, #154)
722 * fixed `--diff` not showing entire path (#130)
724 * fixed parsing of complex expressions after star and double stars in
727 * fixed invalid splitting on comma in lambda arguments (#133)
729 * fixed missing splits of ternary expressions (#141)
734 * fixed parsing of unaligned standalone comments (#99, #112)
736 * fixed placement of dictionary unpacking inside dictionary literals (#111)
738 * Vim plugin now works on Windows, too
740 * fixed unstable formatting when encountering unnecessarily escaped quotes
746 * added `--quiet` (#78)
748 * added automatic parentheses management (#4)
750 * added [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com) integration (#103, #104)
752 * fixed reporting on `--check` with multiple files (#101, #102)
754 * fixed removing backslash escapes from raw strings (#100, #105)
759 * added `--diff` (#87)
761 * add line breaks before all delimiters, except in cases like commas, to
762 better comply with PEP 8 (#73)
764 * standardize string literals to use double quotes (almost) everywhere
767 * fixed handling of standalone comments within nested bracketed
768 expressions; Black will no longer produce super long lines or put all
769 standalone comments at the end of the expression (#22)
771 * fixed 18.3a4 regression: don't crash and burn on empty lines with
772 trailing whitespace (#80)
774 * fixed 18.3a4 regression: `# yapf: disable` usage as trailing comment
775 would cause Black to not emit the rest of the file (#95)
777 * when CTRL+C is pressed while formatting many files, Black no longer
778 freaks out with a flurry of asyncio-related exceptions
780 * only allow up to two empty lines on module level and only single empty
781 lines within functions (#74)
786 * `# fmt: off` and `# fmt: on` are implemented (#5)
788 * automatic detection of deprecated Python 2 forms of print statements
789 and exec statements in the formatted file (#49)
791 * use proper spaces for complex expressions in default values of typed
792 function arguments (#60)
794 * only return exit code 1 when --check is used (#50)
796 * don't remove single trailing commas from square bracket indexing
799 * don't omit whitespace if the previous factor leaf wasn't a math
802 * omit extra space in kwarg unpacking if it's the first argument (#46)
804 * omit extra space in [Sphinx auto-attribute comments](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/ext/autodoc.html#directive-autoattribute)
810 * don't remove single empty lines outside of bracketed expressions
813 * added ability to pipe formatting from stdin to stdin (#25)
815 * restored ability to format code with legacy usage of `async` as
818 * even better handling of numpy-style array indexing (#33, again)
823 * changed positioning of binary operators to occur at beginning of lines
824 instead of at the end, following [a recent change to PEP8](https://github.com/python/peps/commit/c59c4376ad233a62ca4b3a6060c81368bd21e85b)
827 * ignore empty bracket pairs while splitting. This avoids very weirdly
828 looking formattings (#34, #35)
830 * remove a trailing comma if there is a single argument to a call
832 * if top level functions were separated by a comment, don't put four
833 empty lines after the upper function
835 * fixed unstable formatting of newlines with imports
837 * fixed unintentional folding of post scriptum standalone comments
838 into last statement if it was a simple statement (#18, #28)
840 * fixed missing space in numpy-style array indexing (#33)
842 * fixed spurious space after star-based unary expressions (#31)
849 * only put trailing commas in function signatures and calls if it's
850 safe to do so. If the file is Python 3.6+ it's always safe, otherwise
851 only safe if there are no `*args` or `**kwargs` used in the signature
854 * fixed invalid spacing of dots in relative imports (#6, #13)
856 * fixed invalid splitting after comma on unpacked variables in for-loops
859 * fixed spurious space in parenthesized set expressions (#7)
861 * fixed spurious space after opening parentheses and in default
864 * fixed spurious space after unary operators when the operand was
865 a complex expression (#15)
870 * first published version, Happy 🍰 Day 2018!
874 * date-versioned (see: https://calver.org/)
