+# Editor integration
+
+## Emacs
+
+Options include the following:
+
+- [purcell/reformatter.el](https://github.com/purcell/reformatter.el)
+- [proofit404/blacken](https://github.com/pythonic-emacs/blacken)
+- [Elpy](https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy).
+
+## PyCharm/IntelliJ IDEA
+
+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
+```
+
+Note that if you are using a virtual environment detected by PyCharm, this is an
+unneeded step. In this case the path to `black` is `$PyInterpreterDirectory$/black`.
+
+3. Open External tools in PyCharm/IntelliJ IDEA
+
+On macOS:
+
+`PyCharm -> Preferences -> Tools -> External Tools`
+
+On Windows / Linux / BSD:
+
+`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 or Settings -> Keymap -> External Tools -> External Tools - Black`.
+
+6. Optionally, run _Black_ on every file save:
+
+   1. Make sure you have the
+      [File Watchers](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7177-file-watchers) plugin
+      installed.
+   2. Go to `Preferences or Settings -> Tools -> File Watchers` and click `+` to add a
+      new watcher:
+      - Name: Black
+      - File type: Python
+      - Scope: Project Files
+      - Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
+      - Arguments: `$FilePath$`
+      - Output paths to refresh: `$FilePath$`
+      - Working directory: `$ProjectFileDir$`
+
+   - Uncheck "Auto-save edited files to trigger the watcher" in Advanced Options
+
+## Wing IDE
+
+Wing supports black via the OS Commands tool, as explained in the Wing documentation on
+[pep8 formatting](https://wingware.com/doc/edit/pep8). The detailed procedure is:
+
+1. Install `black`.
+
+```console
+$ pip install black
+```
+
+2. Make sure it runs from the command line, e.g.
+
+```console
+$ black --help
+```
+
+3. In Wing IDE, activate the **OS Commands** panel and define the command **black** to
+   execute black on the currently selected file:
+
+- Use the Tools -> OS Commands menu selection
+- click on **+** in **OS Commands** -> New: Command line..
+  - Title: black
+  - Command Line: black %s
+  - I/O Encoding: Use Default
+  - Key Binding: F1
+  - [x] Raise OS Commands when executed
+  - [x] Auto-save files before execution
+  - [x] Line mode
+
+4. Select a file in the editor and press **F1** , or whatever key binding you selected
+   in step 3, to reformat the file.
+
+## Vim
+
+Commands and shortcuts:
+
+- `: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_skip_string_normalization` (defaults to `0`)
+- `g:black_virtualenv` (defaults to `~/.vim/black` or `~/.local/share/nvim/black`)
+
+To install with [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug):
+
+```
+Plug 'psf/black', { 'branch': 'stable' }
+```
+
+or with [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim):
+
+```
+Plugin 'psf/black'
+```
+
+and execute the following in a terminal:
+
+```console
+$ cd ~/.vim/bundle/black
+$ git checkout origin/stable -b stable
+```
+
+or you can copy the plugin from
+[plugin/black.vim](https://github.com/psf/black/blob/stable/plugin/black.vim).
+
+```
+mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/python/start/black/plugin
+curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/psf/black/stable/plugin/black.vim -o ~/.vim/pack/python/start/black/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 BufWritePre *.py execute ':Black'
+```
+
+To run _Black_ on a key press (e.g. F9 below), add this:
+
+```
+nnoremap <F9> :Black<CR>
+```
+
+**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`. When building Vim from source,
+use: `./configure --enable-python3interp=yes`. There's many guides online how to do
+this.
+
+**I get an import error when using _Black_ from a virtual environment**: If you get an
+error message like this:
+
+```text
+Traceback (most recent call last):
+  File "<string>", line 63, in <module>
+  File "/home/gui/.vim/black/lib/python3.7/site-packages/black.py", line 45, in <module>
+    from typed_ast import ast3, ast27
+  File "/home/gui/.vim/black/lib/python3.7/site-packages/typed_ast/ast3.py", line 40, in <module>
+    from typed_ast import _ast3
+ImportError: /home/gui/.vim/black/lib/python3.7/site-packages/typed_ast/_ast3.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbool: PyExc_KeyboardInterrupt
+```
+
+Then you need to install `typed_ast` and `regex` directly from the source code. The
+error happens because `pip` will download [Python wheels](https://pythonwheels.com/) if
+they are available. Python wheels are a new standard of distributing Python packages and
+packages that have Cython and extensions written in C are already compiled, so the
+installation is much more faster. The problem here is that somehow the Python
+environment inside Vim does not match with those already compiled C extensions and these
+kind of errors are the result. Luckily there is an easy fix: installing the packages
+from the source code.
+
+The two packages that cause the problem are:
+
+- [regex](https://pypi.org/project/regex/)
+- [typed-ast](https://pypi.org/project/typed-ast/)
+
+Now remove those two packages:
+
+```console
+$ pip uninstall regex typed-ast -y
+```
+
+And now you can install them with:
+
+```console
+$ pip install --no-binary :all: regex typed-ast
+```
+
+The C extensions will be compiled and now Vim's Python environment will match. Note that
+you need to have the GCC compiler and the Python development files installed (on
+Ubuntu/Debian do `sudo apt-get install build-essential python3-dev`).
+
+If you later want to update _Black_, you should do it like this:
+
+```console
+$ pip install -U black --no-binary regex,typed-ast
+```
+
+## Visual Studio Code
+
+Use the
+[Python extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.python)
+([instructions](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/editing#_formatting)).
+
+## SublimeText 3
+
+Use [sublack plugin](https://github.com/jgirardet/sublack).
+
+## Jupyter Notebook Magic
+
+Use [blackcellmagic](https://github.com/csurfer/blackcellmagic).
+
+## Python Language Server
+
+If your editor supports the [Language Server Protocol](https://langserver.org/) (Atom,
+Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code and many more), you can use the
+[Python Language Server](https://github.com/palantir/python-language-server) with the
+[pyls-black](https://github.com/rupert/pyls-black) plugin.
+
+## Atom/Nuclide
+
+Use [python-black](https://atom.io/packages/python-black).
+
+## Gradle (the build tool)
+
+Use the [Spotless](https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/tree/main/plugin-gradle) plugin.
+
+## Kakoune
+
+Add the following hook to your kakrc, then run _Black_ with `:format`.
+
+```
+hook global WinSetOption filetype=python %{
+    set-option window formatcmd 'black -q  -'
+}
+```
+
+## Thonny
+
+Use [Thonny-black-code-format](https://github.com/Franccisco/thonny-black-code-format).
+
+## Other integrations
+
+Other editors and tools will require external contributions.
+
+Patches welcome! ✨ 🍰 ✨
+
+Any tool that can pipe code through _Black_ using its stdio mode (just
+[use `-` as the file name](https://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.
+
+This can be used for example with PyCharm's or IntelliJ's
+[File Watchers](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/file-watchers.html).
