- regardless of file extension (useful when piping
- source on standard input).

*Black* is a well-behaved Unix-style command-line tool:
*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
+blocks that start with `# fmt: off` and end with `# fmt: on`. `# fmt: on/off`
+have to be on the same level of indentation. It also
recognizes [YAPF](https://github.com/google/yapf)'s block comments to
the same effect, as a courtesy for straddling code.
multi_line_output=3
include_trailing_comma=True
force_grid_wrap=0
-combine_as_imports=True
+use_parentheses=True
line_length=88
```
The equivalent command line is:
```
-$ isort --multi-line=3 --trailing-comma --force-grid-wrap=0 --combine-as --line-width=88 [ file.py ]
+$ isort --multi-line=3 --trailing-comma --force-grid-wrap=0 --use-parentheses --line-width=88 [ file.py ]
```

```
You'll find *Black*'s own .flake8 config file is configured like this.

On top of this, double quotes for strings are consistent with C which

### Numeric literals

+*Black* standardizes most numeric literals to use lowercase letters for the

-styled as `2L` instead of `2l` to avoid confusion between `l` and `1`. In

+## blackd
+
+`blackd` is a small HTTP server that exposes *Black*'s functionality over
+a simple protocol. The main benefit of using it is to avoid paying the
+cost of starting up a new *Black* process every time you want to blacken
+a file.
+
+### Usage
+
+`blackd` is not packaged alongside *Black* by default because it has additional
+dependencies. You will need to do `pip install black[d]` to install it.
+
+You can start the server on the default port, binding only to the local interface
+by running `blackd`. You will see a single line mentioning the server's version,
+and the host and port it's listening on. `blackd` will then print an access log
+similar to most web servers on standard output, merged with any exception traces
+caused by invalid formatting requests.
+
+`blackd` provides even less options than *Black*. You can see them by running
+`blackd --help`:
+
+```text
+Usage: blackd [OPTIONS]
+
+Options:
+ --bind-host TEXT Address to bind the server to.
+ --bind-port INTEGER Port to listen on
+ --version Show the version and exit.
+ -h, --help Show this message and exit.
+```
+
+### Protocol
+
+`blackd` only accepts `POST` requests at the `/` path. The body of the request
+should contain the python source code to be formatted, encoded
+according to the `charset` field in the `Content-Type` request header. If no
+`charset` is specified, `blackd` assumes `UTF-8`.
+
+There are a few HTTP headers that control how the source is formatted. These
+correspond to command line flags for *Black*. There is one exception to this:
+`X-Protocol-Version` which if present, should have the value `1`, otherwise the
+request is rejected with `HTTP 501` (Not Implemented).
+
+The headers controlling how code is formatted are:
+
+ - `X-Line-Length`: corresponds to the `--line-length` command line flag.
+ - `X-Skip-String-Normalization`: corresponds to the `--skip-string-normalization`
+ command line flag. If present and its value is not the empty string, no string
+ normalization will be performed.
+ - `X-Fast-Or-Safe`: if set to `fast`, `blackd` will act as *Black* does when
+ passed the `--fast` command line flag.
+ - `X-Python-Variant`: if set to `pyi`, `blackd` will act as *Black* does when
+ passed the `--pyi` command line flag. Otherwise, its value must correspond to
+ a Python version or a set of comma-separated Python versions, optionally
+ prefixed with `cpy` or `pypy`. For example, to request code that is compatible
+ with PyPy 3.5 and CPython 3.5, set the header to `pypy3.5,cpy3.5`.
+
+If any of these headers are set to invalid values, `blackd` returns a `HTTP 400`
+error response, mentioning the name of the problematic header in the message body.
+
+Apart from the above, `blackd` can produce the following response codes:
+
+ - `HTTP 204`: If the input is already well-formatted. The response body is
+ empty.
+ - `HTTP 200`: If formatting was needed on the input. The response body
+ contains the blackened Python code, and the `Content-Type` header is set
+ accordingly.
+ - `HTTP 400`: If the input contains a syntax error. Details of the error are
+ returned in the response body.
+ - `HTTP 500`: If there was any kind of error while trying to format the input.
+ The response body contains a textual representation of the error.

## Change Log
-### 18.8b0
+### 19.2b0
-* adjacent string literals are now correctly split into multiple lines (#463)
+* *Black* no longer normalizes numeric literals to include `_` separators.
+
+* new option `--target-version` to control which Python versions
+ *Black*-formatted code should target
+
+### 18.9b0
* numeric literals are now formatted by *Black* (#452, #461, #464, #469):
* numeric literals are normalized to include `_` separators on Python 3.6+ code
+ * added `--skip-numeric-underscore-normalization` to disable the above behavior and
+ leave numeric underscores as they were in the input
+
* code with `_` in numeric literals is recognized as Python 3.6+
- * most letters in numeric literals are lowercased (e.g., in `1e10` or `0xab`)
+ * most letters in numeric literals are lowercased (e.g., in `1e10`, `0x01`)
+
+ * hexadecimal digits are always uppercased (e.g. `0xBADC0DE`)
+
+* added `blackd`, see [its documentation](#blackd) for more info (#349)
+
+* adjacent string literals are now correctly split into multiple lines (#463)
+
+* trailing comma is now added to single imports that don't fit on a line (#250)
* cache is now populated when `--check` is successful for a file which speeds up
consecutive checks of properly formatted unmodified files (#448)
+* whitespace at the beginning of the file is now removed (#399)
+
+* fixed mangling [pweave](http://mpastell.com/pweave/) and
+ [Spyder IDE](https://pythonhosted.org/spyder/) special comments (#532)
+
+* fixed unstable formatting when unpacking big tuples (#267)
+
* fixed parsing of `__future__` imports with renames (#389)
* fixed scope of `# fmt: off` when directly preceding `yield` and other nodes (#385)
+* fixed formatting of lambda expressions with default arguments (#468)
+
+* fixed ``async for`` statements: *Black* no longer breaks them into separate
+ lines (#372)
+
* note: the Vim plugin stopped registering ``,=`` as a default chord as it turned out
to be a bad idea (#415)
-* fixed formatting of lambda expressions with default arguments (#468)
-
