*Black* is the uncompromising Python code formatter. By using it, you
-agree to cease control over minutiae of hand-formatting. In return,
+agree to cede 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.

Also, as a temporary safety measure, *Black* will check that the

+whitespace can be summarized as: do whatever makes `pycodestyle` happy.
+The coding style used by *Black* can be viewed as a strict subset of
+PEP 8.
As for vertical whitespace, *Black* tries to render one full expression
or simple statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length,
```py3
# in:
-l = [[n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]]
+TracebackException.from_exception(exc, limit, lookup_lines, capture_locals)
# out:
-l = [
- [n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]
-]
+TracebackException.from_exception(
+ exc, limit, lookup_lines, capture_locals
+)
```
If that still doesn't fit the bill, it will decompose the internal
indentation level (like the arguments list and the docstring in the
example above).
-If a line of "from" imports cannot fit in the allotted length, it's always split
-into one per line. Imports tend to change often and this minimizes diffs, as well
-as enables readers of code to easily find which commit introduced a particular
-import. This exception also makes *Black* compatible with
-[isort](https://pypi.org/p/isort/). Use `multi_line_output=3` and
-`include_trailing_comma=True` in your isort config.
+If a data structure literal (tuple, list, set, dict) or a line of "from"
+imports cannot fit in the allotted length, it's always split into one
+element per line. This minimizes diffs as well as enables readers of
+code to find which commit introduced a particular entry. This also
+makes *Black* compatible with [isort](https://pypi.org/p/isort/) with
+the following configuration.
+
+<details>

+The equivalent command line is:

+```
+</details>
### Line length
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 not put empty lines between
-function/class definitions and standalone comments that immediately precede
-the given function/class.
+after module-level functions and classes. *Black* will not put empty
+lines between function/class definitions and standalone comments that
+immediately precede the given function/class.
+
+*Black* will enforce single empty lines between a class-level docstring
+and the first following field or method. This conforms to
+[PEP 257](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/#multi-line-docstrings).
+
+*Black* won't insert empty lines after function docstrings unless that
+empty line is required due to an inner function starting immediately
+after.
### Trailing commas
recognize it was safe to do so, put it there manually and *Black* will
keep it.
+
### Strings
*Black* prefers double quotes (`"` and `"""`) over single quotes (`'`
and `'''`). It will replace the latter with the former as long as it
does not result in more backslash escapes than before.
+*Black* also standardizes string prefixes, making them always lowercase.
+On top of that, if your code is already Python 3.6+ only or it's using
+the `unicode_literals` future import, *Black* will remove `u` from the
+string prefix as it is meaningless in those scenarios.
+
The main reason to standardize on a single form of quotes is aesthetics.
Having one kind of quotes everywhere reduces reader distraction.
It will also enable a future version of *Black* to merge consecutive
key. My recommendation here is to keep using whatever is faster to type
and let *Black* handle the transformation.
-### Line Breaks & Binary Operators
+If you are adopting *Black* in a large project with pre-existing string
+conventions (like the popular ["single quotes for data, double quotes for
+human-readable strings"](https://stackoverflow.com/a/56190)), you can
+pass `--skip-string-normalization` on the command line. This is meant as
+an adoption helper, avoid using this for new projects.
+
+### Numeric literals
+
+*Black* standardizes most numeric literals to use lowercase letters: `0xab`
+instead of `0XAB` and `1e10` instead of `1E10`. Python 2 long literals are
+styled as `2L` instead of `2l` to avoid confusion between `l` and `1`. In
+Python 3.6+, *Black* adds underscores to long numeric literals to aid
+readability: `100000000` becomes `100_000_000`.
+
+### Line breaks & binary operators
*Black* will break a line before a binary operator when splitting a block
of code over multiple lines. This is so that *Black* is compliant with the
style guide enforcement tools like Flake8. Since ``W503`` is not PEP 8 compliant,
you should tell Flake8 to ignore these warnings.
+
### Slices
PEP 8 [recommends](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#whitespace-in-expressions-and-statements)
enforcement tools like Flake8. Since ``E203`` is not PEP 8 compliant, you should
tell Flake8 to ignore these warnings.
+
### Parentheses
Some parentheses are optional in the Python grammar. Any expression can
- `for (...) in (...):`
- `assert (...), (...)`
- `from X import (...)`
+- assignments like:
+ - `target = (...)`
+ - `target: type = (...)`
+ - `some, *un, packing = (...)`
+ - `augmented += (...)`
In those cases, parentheses are removed when the entire statement fits
in one line, or if the inner expression doesn't have any delimiters to
-further split on. Otherwise, the parentheses are always added.
+further split on. If there is only a single delimiter and the expression
+starts or ends with a bracket, the parenthesis can also be successfully
+omitted since the existing bracket pair will organize the expression
+neatly anyway. Otherwise, the parentheses are added.
+
+Please note that *Black* does not add or remove any additional nested
+parentheses that you might want to have for clarity or further
+code organization. For example those parentheses are not going to be
+removed:
+```py3
+return not (this or that)
+decision = (maybe.this() and values > 0) or (maybe.that() and values < 0)
+```
+
+
+### Call chains
+
+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]`.
+
+
+## pyproject.toml
+
+*Black* is able to read project-specific default values for its
+command line options from a `pyproject.toml` file. This is
+especially useful for specifying custom `--include` and `--exclude`
+patterns for your project.
+
+**Pro-tip**: If you're asking yourself "Do I need to configure anything?"
+the answer is "No". *Black* is all about sensible defaults.
+
+
+### What on Earth is a `pyproject.toml` file?
+
+[PEP 518](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0518/) defines
+`pyproject.toml` as a configuration file to store build system
+requirements for Python projects. With the help of tools
+like [Poetry](https://poetry.eustace.io/) or
+[Flit](https://flit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) it can fully replace the
+need for `setup.py` and `setup.cfg` files.
+
+
+### Where *Black* looks for the file
+
+By default *Black* looks for `pyproject.toml` starting from the common
+base directory of all files and directories passed on the command line.
+If it's not there, it looks in parent directories. It stops looking
+when it finds the file, or a `.git` directory, or a `.hg` directory,
+or the root of the file system, whichever comes first.
+
+If you're formatting standard input, *Black* will look for configuration
+starting from the current working directory.
+
+You can also explicitly specify the path to a particular file that you
+want with `--config`. In this situation *Black* will not look for any
+other file.
+
+If you're running with `--verbose`, you will see a blue message if
+a file was found and used.
+
+
+### Configuration format
+
+As the file extension suggests, `pyproject.toml` is a [TOML](https://github.com/toml-lang/toml) file. It contains separate
+sections for different tools. *Black* is using the `[tool.black]`
+section. The option keys are the same as long names of options on
+the command line.
+
+Note that you have to use single-quoted strings in TOML for regular
+expressions. It's the equivalent of r-strings in Python. Multiline
+strings are treated as verbose regular expressions by Black. Use `[ ]`
+to denote a significant space character.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Example `pyproject.toml`</summary>
+
+```toml
+[tool.black]
+line-length = 88
+py36 = true
+include = '\.pyi?$'
+exclude = '''
+/(
+ \.git
+ | \.hg
+ | \.mypy_cache
+ | \.tox
+ | \.venv
+ | _build
+ | buck-out
+ | build
+ | dist
+
+ # The following are specific to Black, you probably don't want those.
+ | blib2to3
+ | tests/data
+)/
+'''
+```
+
+</details>
+
+### Lookup hierarchy
+
+Command-line options have defaults that you can see in `--help`.
+A `pyproject.toml` can override those defaults. Finally, options
+provided by the user on the command line override both.
+
+*Black* will only ever use one `pyproject.toml` file during an entire
+run. It doesn't look for multiple files, and doesn't compose
+configuration from different levels of the file hierarchy.

+## 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. If this value represents at least Python 3.6, `blackd` will
+ act as *Black* does when passed the `--py36` command line flag.
+
+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.
## Version control integration
rev: stable
hooks:
- id: black
- args: [--line-length=88, --safe]
- python_version: python3.6
+ language_version: python3.6
```
Then run `pre-commit install` and you're ready to go.
-`args` in the above config is optional but shows you how you can change
-the line length if you really need to. If you're already using Python
-3.7, switch the `python_version` accordingly. Finally, `stable` is a tag
-that is pinned to the latest release on PyPI. If you'd rather run on
-master, this is also an option.
+Avoid using `args` in the hook. Instead, store necessary configuration
+in `pyproject.toml` so that editors and command-line usage of Black all
+behave consistently for your project. See *Black*'s own `pyproject.toml`
+for an example.
+If you're already using Python 3.7, switch the `language_version`

is run. The file is non-portable. The standard location on common operating systems
is:
-* Windows: `C:\\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\black\black\Cache\<version>\cache.<line-length>.pickle`
-* macOS: `/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`
-* Linux: `/home/<username>/.cache/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`
+* Windows: `C:\\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\black\black\Cache\<version>\cache.<line-length>.<file-mode>.pickle`
+* macOS: `/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.<file-mode>.pickle`
+* Linux: `/home/<username>/.cache/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.<file-mode>.pickle`
+
+`file-mode` is an int flag that determines whether the file was formatted as 3.6+ only,
+as .pyi, and whether string normalization was omitted.

## Change Log
+### 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
+
+ * code with `_` in numeric literals is recognized as Python 3.6+
+
+ * most letters in numeric literals are lowercased (e.g., in `1e10` or `0xab`)
+
+* added `blackd`, see [its documentation](#blackd) for more info (#349)
+
+* adjacent string literals are now correctly split into multiple lines (#463)
+
+* cache is now populated when `--check` is successful for a file which speeds up
+ consecutive checks of properly formatted unmodified files (#448)
+
+* code with `_` in numeric literals is recognized as Python 3.6+ (#461)
+
+* 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)
+
+
+
+### 18.6b4
+
+* hotfix: don't freeze when multiple comments directly precede `# fmt: off` (#371)
+
+
+### 18.6b3
+
+* typing stub files (`.pyi`) now have blank lines added after constants (#340)
+
+* `# fmt: off` and `# fmt: on` are now much more dependable:
+
+ * they now work also within bracket pairs (#329)
+
+ * they now correctly work across function/class boundaries (#335)
+
+ * they now work when an indentation block starts with empty lines or misaligned
+ comments (#334)
+
+* made Click not fail on invalid environments; note that Click is right but the
+ likelihood we'll need to access non-ASCII file paths when dealing with Python source
+ code is low (#277)
+
+* fixed improper formatting of f-strings with quotes inside interpolated
+ expressions (#322)
+
+* fixed unnecessary slowdown when long list literals where found in a file
+
+* fixed unnecessary slowdown on AST nodes with very many siblings
+
+* fixed cannibalizing backslashes during string normalization
+
+* fixed a crash due to symbolic links pointing outside of the project directory (#338)
+
+
+### 18.6b2
+
+* added `--config` (#65)
+
+* added `-h` equivalent to `--help` (#316)
+
+* fixed improper unmodified file caching when `-S` was used
+
+* fixed extra space in string unpacking (#305)
+
+* fixed formatting of empty triple quoted strings (#313)
+
+* fixed unnecessary slowdown in comment placement calculation on lines without
+ comments
+
+
+### 18.6b1
+
+* hotfix: don't output human-facing information on stdout (#299)
+
+* hotfix: don't output cake emoji on non-zero return code (#300)
+
+
+### 18.6b0
+
+* added `--include` and `--exclude` (#270)
+
+* added `--skip-string-normalization` (#118)
+
+* added `--verbose` (#283)
+
+* the header output in `--diff` now actually conforms to the unified diff spec
+
+* fixed long trivial assignments being wrapped in unnecessary parentheses (#273)
+
+* fixed unnecessary parentheses when a line contained multiline strings (#232)
+
+* fixed stdin handling not working correctly if an old version of Click was
+ used (#276)
+
+* *Black* now preserves line endings when formatting a file in place (#258)
+
+
+### 18.5b1
+
+* added `--pyi` (#249)
+
+* added `--py36` (#249)
+
+* Python grammar pickle caches are stored with the formatting caches, making
+ *Black* work in environments where site-packages is not user-writable (#192)
+
+* *Black* now enforces a PEP 257 empty line after a class-level docstring
+ (and/or fields) and the first method
+
+* fixed invalid code produced when standalone comments were present in a trailer
+ that was omitted from line splitting on a large expression (#237)
+
+* fixed optional parentheses being removed within `# fmt: off` sections (#224)
+
+* fixed invalid code produced when stars in very long imports were incorrectly
+ wrapped in optional parentheses (#234)
+
+* fixed unstable formatting when inline comments were moved around in
+ a trailer that was omitted from line splitting on a large expression
+ (#238)
+
+* fixed extra empty line between a class declaration and the first
+ method if no class docstring or fields are present (#219)
+
+* fixed extra empty line between a function signature and an inner
+ function or inner class (#196)
+
+
+### 18.5b0
+
+* call chains are now formatted according to the
+ [fluent interfaces](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface)
+ style (#67)
+
+* data structure literals (tuples, lists, dictionaries, and sets) are
+ now also always exploded like imports when they don't fit in a single
+ line (#152)
+
+* slices are now formatted according to PEP 8 (#178)
+
+* parentheses are now also managed automatically on the right-hand side
+ of assignments and return statements (#140)
+
+* math operators now use their respective priorities for delimiting multiline
+ expressions (#148)
+
+* optional parentheses are now omitted on expressions that start or end
+ with a bracket and only contain a single operator (#177)
+
+* empty parentheses in a class definition are now removed (#145, #180)
+
+* string prefixes are now standardized to lowercase and `u` is removed
+ on Python 3.6+ only code and Python 2.7+ code with the `unicode_literals`
+ future import (#188, #198, #199)
+
+* typing stub files (`.pyi`) are now formatted in a style that is consistent
+ with PEP 484 (#207, #210)
+
+* progress when reformatting many files is now reported incrementally
+
+* fixed trailers (content with brackets) being unnecessarily exploded
+ into their own lines after a dedented closing bracket (#119)

+
+* fixed non-deterministic formatting when multiple pairs of removable parentheses
+ were used (#183)
+
+* fixed multiline strings being unnecessarily wrapped in optional
+ parentheses in long assignments (#215)
+
+* fixed not splitting long from-imports with only a single name
+
+* fixed Python 3.6+ file discovery by also looking at function calls with
+ unpacking. This fixed non-deterministic formatting if trailing commas
+ where used both in function signatures with stars and function calls
+ with stars but the former would be reformatted to a single line.
+
+* fixed crash on dealing with optional parentheses (#193)
+
+* fixed "is", "is not", "in", and "not in" not considered operators for
+ splitting purposes
+
+* fixed crash when dead symlinks where encountered
+
+
### 18.4a4
* don't populate the cache on `--check` (#175)

- expressions; Black will no longer produce super long lines or put all
+ expressions; *Black* will no longer produce super long lines or put all
standalone comments at the end of the expression (#22)
* fixed 18.3a4 regression: don't crash and burn on empty lines with
trailing whitespace (#80)
* fixed 18.3a4 regression: `# yapf: disable` usage as trailing comment
- would cause Black to not emit the rest of the file (#95)
+ would cause *Black* to not emit the rest of the file (#95)
-* when CTRL+C is pressed while formatting many files, Black no longer
+* when CTRL+C is pressed while formatting many files, *Black* no longer
freaks out with a flurry of asyncio-related exceptions
* only allow up to two empty lines on module level and only single empty
### 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
