Options:
-l, --line-length INTEGER Where to wrap around. [default: 88]
+ --py36 Allow using Python 3.6-only syntax on all input
+ files. This will put trailing commas in function
+ signatures and calls also after *args and
+ **kwargs. [default: per-file auto-detection]
+ --pyi Format all input files like typing stubs
+ regardless of file extension (useful when piping
+ source on standard input).
+ -S, --skip-string-normalization
+ Don't normalize string quotes or prefixes.
--check Don't write the files back, just return the
status. Return code 0 means nothing would
change. Return code 1 means some files would be
for each file on stdout.
--fast / --safe If --fast given, skip temporary sanity checks.
[default: --safe]
+ --include TEXT A regular expression that matches files and
+ directories that should be included on
+ recursive searches. On Windows, use forward
+ slashes for directories. [default: \.pyi?$]
+ --exclude TEXT A regular expression that matches files and
+ directories that should be excluded on
+ recursive searches. On Windows, use forward
+ slashes for directories. [default:
+ build/|buck-out/|dist/|_build/|\.git/|\.hg/|
+ \.mypy_cache/|\.tox/|\.venv/]
-q, --quiet Don't emit non-error messages to stderr. Errors
are still emitted, silence those with
2>/dev/null.
- --pyi Consider all input files typing stubs regardless
- of file extension (useful when piping source on
- standard input).
- --py36 Allow using Python 3.6-only syntax on all input
- files. This will put trailing commas in function
- signatures and calls also after *args and
- **kwargs. [default: per-file auto-detection]
+ -v, --verbose Also emit messages to stderr about files
+ that were not changed or were ignored due to
+ --exclude=.
--version Show the version and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.

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

-If you do wish to use *Black* alongside `isort`, you can pass the following
-command-line arguments to ensure compatible behaviour:
-```
-$ isort --multi-line=3 --trailing-comma --force-grid-wrap=0 --line-width=88 [ file.py ]

-Or use the equivalent directives in your isort config:
```

multi_line_output=3
include_trailing_comma=True
force_grid_wrap=0
+combine_as_imports=True
line_length=88

+The equivalent command line is:

### Line length
You probably noticed the peculiar default line length. *Black* defaults
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
key. My recommendation here is to keep using whatever is faster to type
and let *Black* handle the transformation.
+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.

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
+3.7, switch the `language_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.
