+Some popular APIs, like ORMs, use call chaining. This API style is known
+as a [fluent interface](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface).
+*Black* formats those by treating dots that follow a call or an indexing
+operation like a very low priority delimiter. It's easier to show the
+behavior than to explain it. Look at the example:
+```py3
+def example(session):
+ result = (
+ session.query(models.Customer.id)
+ .filter(
+ models.Customer.account_id == account_id,
+ models.Customer.email == email_address,
+ )
+ .order_by(models.Customer.id.asc())
+ .all()
+ )
+```
+
+
+### Typing stub files
+
+PEP 484 describes the syntax for type hints in Python. One of the
+use cases for typing is providing type annotations for modules which
+cannot contain them directly (they might be written in C, or they might
+be third-party, or their implementation may be overly dynamic, and so on).
+
+To solve this, [stub files with the `.pyi` file
+extension](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/#stub-files) can be
+used to describe typing information for an external module. Those stub
+files omit the implementation of classes and functions they
+describe, instead they only contain the structure of the file (listing
+globals, functions, and classes with their members). The recommended
+code style for those files is more terse than PEP 8:
+
+* prefer `...` on the same line as the class/function signature;
+* avoid vertical whitespace between consecutive module-level functions,
+ names, or methods and fields within a single class;
+* use a single blank line between top-level class definitions, or none
+ if the classes are very small.
+
+*Black* enforces the above rules. There are additional guidelines for
+formatting `.pyi` file that are not enforced yet but might be in
+a future version of the formatter:
+
+* all function bodies should be empty (contain `...` instead of the body);
+* do not use docstrings;
+* prefer `...` over `pass`;
+* for arguments with a default, use `...` instead of the actual default;
+* avoid using string literals in type annotations, stub files support
+ forward references natively (like Python 3.7 code with `from __future__
+ import annotations`);
+* use variable annotations instead of type comments, even for stubs that
+ target older versions of Python;
+* for arguments that default to `None`, use `Optional[]` explicitly;
+* use `float` instead of `Union[int, float]`.

+## Editor integration
+
+### Emacs
+
+Use [proofit404/blacken](https://github.com/proofit404/blacken).
+
+
+### PyCharm
+
+1. Install `black`.
+
+```console
+$ pip install black
+```
+
+2. Locate your `black` installation folder.
+
+ On macOS / Linux / BSD:
+
+```console
+$ which black
+/usr/local/bin/black # possible location
+```
+
+ On Windows:
+
+```console
+$ where black
+%LocalAppData%\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts\black.exe # possible location
+```
+
+3. Open External tools in PyCharm with `File -> Settings -> Tools -> External Tools`.
+
+4. Click the + icon to add a new external tool with the following values:
+ - Name: Black
+ - Description: Black is the uncompromising Python code formatter.
+ - Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
+ - Arguments: $FilePath$
+
+5. Format the currently opened file by selecting `Tools -> External Tools -> black`.
+ - Alternatively, you can set a keyboard shortcut by navigating to `Preferences -> Keymap`.
+
+
+### Vim
+
+Commands and shortcuts:
+
+* `,=` or `:Black` to format the entire file (ranges not supported);
+* `:BlackUpgrade` to upgrade *Black* inside the virtualenv;
+* `:BlackVersion` to get the current version of *Black* inside the
+ virtualenv.
+
+Configuration:
+* `g:black_fast` (defaults to `0`)
+* `g:black_linelength` (defaults to `88`)
+* `g:black_virtualenv` (defaults to `~/.vim/black`)
+
+To install with [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug):
+
+```
+Plug 'ambv/black',
+```
+
+or with [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim):
+
+```
+Plugin 'ambv/black'
+```
+
+or you can copy the plugin from [plugin/black.vim](https://github.com/ambv/black/tree/master/plugin/black.vim).
+Let me know if this requires any changes to work with Vim 8's builtin
+`packadd`, or Pathogen, and so on.
+
+This plugin **requires Vim 7.0+ built with Python 3.6+ support**. It
+needs Python 3.6 to be able to run *Black* inside the Vim process which
+is much faster than calling an external command.
+
+On first run, the plugin creates its own virtualenv using the right
+Python version and automatically installs *Black*. You can upgrade it later
+by calling `:BlackUpgrade` and restarting Vim.
+
+If you need to do anything special to make your virtualenv work and
+install *Black* (for example you want to run a version from master),
+create a virtualenv manually and point `g:black_virtualenv` to it.
+The plugin will use it.
+
+To run *Black* on save, add the following line to `.vimrc` or `init.vim`:
+
+```
+autocmd BufWritePost *.py execute ':Black'
+```
+
+**How to get Vim with Python 3.6?**
+On Ubuntu 17.10 Vim comes with Python 3.6 by default.
+On macOS with Homebrew run: `brew install vim --with-python3`.
+When building Vim from source, use:
+`./configure --enable-python3interp=yes`. There's many guides online how
+to do this.
