+[PyCon 2019 talk](https://youtu.be/esZLCuWs_2Y) to learn more.

 
 

-## NOTE: This is an early pre-release
+---

 
 

-*Black* can already successfully format itself and the standard library.
-It also sports a decent test suite.  However, it is still very new.
-Things will probably be wonky for a while. This is made explicit by the
-"Alpha" trove classifier, as well as by the "a" in the version number.
-What this means for you is that **until the formatter becomes stable,
-you should expect some formatting to change in the future**.

+## Installation and usage

 
 

-## Usage
+### Installation

 
 

-*Black* can be installed by running `pip install black`.
+_Black_ can be installed by running `pip install black`. It requires Python 3.6.0+ to
+run but you can reformat Python 2 code with it, too.

 
 

+### Usage
+
+To get started right away with sensible defaults:
+
+```
+black {source_file_or_directory}

 ```
 ```

+
+### Command line options
+
+_Black_ doesn't provide many options. You can list them by running `black --help`:
+
+```text

+_Black_ is a well-behaved Unix-style command-line tool:

 
 

-## The philosophy behind *Black*
+- it does nothing if no sources are passed to it;
+- it will read from standard input and write to standard output if `-` is used as the
+  filename;
+- it only outputs messages to users on standard error;
+- exits with code 0 unless an internal error occurred (or `--check` was used).

 
 

-*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
-recognizes [YAPF](https://github.com/google/yapf)'s block comments to
-the same effect, as a courtesy for straddling code.
+### NOTE: This is a beta product

 
 

+_Black_ is already [successfully used](#used-by) by many projects, small and big. It
+also sports a decent test suite. However, it is still very new. Things will probably be
+wonky for a while. This is made explicit by the "Beta" trove classifier, as well as by
+the "b" in the version number. What this means for you is that **until the formatter
+becomes stable, you should expect some formatting to change in the future**. That being
+said, no drastic stylistic changes are planned, mostly responses to bug reports.

 
 

-### How *Black* formats files
+Also, as a temporary safety measure, _Black_ will check that the reformatted code still
+produces a valid AST that is equivalent to the original. This slows it down. If you're
+feeling confident, use `--fast`.

 
 

-*Black* ignores previous formatting and applies uniform horizontal
-and vertical whitespace to your code.  The rules for horizontal
-whitespace are pretty obvious and can be summarized as: do whatever
-makes `pycodestyle` happy.

+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, great.

-You might have noticed that closing brackets are always dedented and

+
+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>
+<summary>A compatible `.isort.cfg`</summary>

 
 

-Unnecessary trailing commas are removed if an expression fits in one
-line.  This makes it 1% more likely that your line won't exceed the
-allotted line length limit.
+```
+[settings]
+multi_line_output=3
+include_trailing_comma=True
+force_grid_wrap=0
+use_parentheses=True
+line_length=88
+```

 
 

-*Black* avoids spurious vertical whitespace.  This is in the spirit of
-PEP 8 which says that in-function vertical whitespace should only be
-used sparingly.  One exception is control flow statements: *Black* will
-always emit an extra empty line after ``return``, ``raise``, ``break``,
-``continue``, and ``yield``.  This is to make changes in control flow
-more prominent to readers of your code.
+The equivalent command line is:

 
 

-That's it.  The rest of the whitespace formatting rules follow PEP 8 and
-are designed to keep `pycodestyle` quiet.
+```
+$ isort --multi-line=3 --trailing-comma --force-grid-wrap=0 --use-parentheses --line-width=88 [ file.py ]

 ### Line length
 
 
 ### Line length
 

-You probably noticed the peculiar default line length.  *Black* defaults
-to 88 characters per line, which happens to be 10% over 80.  This number
-was found to produce significantly shorter files than sticking with 80
-(the most popular), or even 79 (used by the standard library).  In
-general, [90-ish seems like the wise choice](https://youtu.be/wf-BqAjZb8M?t=260).
-
-If you're paid by the line of code you write, you can pass
-`--line-length` with a lower number.  *Black* will try to respect that.
-However, sometimes it won't be able to without breaking other rules.  In
-those rare cases, auto-formatted code will exceed your allotted limit.
-
-You can also increase it, but remember that people with sight disabilities
-find it harder to work with line lengths exceeding 100 characters.
-It also adversely affects side-by-side diff review  on typical screen
-resolutions.  Long lines also make it harder to present code neatly
-in documentation or talk slides.
-
-If you're using Flake8, you can bump `max-line-length` to 88 and forget
-about it.  Alternatively, use [Bugbear](https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8-bugbear)'s
-B950 warning instead of E501 and keep the max line length at 80 which
-you are probably already using.  You'd do it like this:

+Alternatively, use [Bugbear](https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8-bugbear)'s B950 warning
+instead of E501 and keep the max line length at 80 which you are probably already using.
+You'd do it like this:
+

 ```ini
 [flake8]
 max-line-length = 80
 ...
 select = C,E,F,W,B,B950
 ```ini
 [flake8]
 max-line-length = 80
 ...
 select = C,E,F,W,B,B950

-ignore = E501
+ignore = E203, E501, W503

 ```
 
 ```
 

-You'll find *Black*'s own .flake8 config file is configured like this.
-If you're curious about the reasoning behind B950, Bugbear's documentation
-explains it.  The tl;dr is "it's like highway speed limits, we won't
-bother you if you overdo it by a few km/h".
+You'll find _Black_'s own .flake8 config file is configured like this. Explanation of
+why W503 and E203 are disabled can be found further in this documentation. And if you're
+curious about the reasoning behind B950,
+[Bugbear's documentation](https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8-bugbear#opinionated-warnings)
+explains it. The tl;dr is "it's like highway speed limits, we won't bother you if you
+overdo it by a few km/h".
+
+**If you're looking for a minimal, black-compatible flake8 configuration:**

 
 

+```ini
+[flake8]
+max-line-length = 88
+extend-ignore = E203
+```

 
 

-### Editor integration
+### Empty lines

 
 

-There is currently no integration with any text editors. Vim and
-Atom/Nuclide integration is planned by the author, others will require
-external contributions.
+_Black_ avoids spurious vertical whitespace. This is in the spirit of PEP 8 which says
+that in-function vertical whitespace should only be used sparingly.
+
+_Black_ will allow single empty lines inside functions, and single and double empty
+lines on module level left by the original editors, except when they're within
+parenthesized expressions. Since such expressions are always reformatted to fit minimal
+space, this whitespace is lost.

 
 

-Patches welcome! ✨ 🍰 ✨
+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
+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
+
+_Black_ will add trailing commas to expressions that are split by comma where each
+element is on its own line. This includes function signatures.
+
+Unnecessary trailing commas are removed if an expression fits in one line. This makes it
+1% more likely that your line won't exceed the allotted line length limit. Moreover, in
+this scenario, if you added another argument to your call, you'd probably fit it in the
+same line anyway. That doesn't make diffs any larger.
+
+One exception to removing trailing commas is tuple expressions with just one element. In
+this case _Black_ won't touch the single trailing comma as this would unexpectedly
+change the underlying data type. Note that this is also the case when commas are used
+while indexing. This is a tuple in disguise: `numpy_array[3, ]`.
+
+One exception to adding trailing commas is function signatures containing `*`, `*args`,
+or `**kwargs`. In this case a trailing comma is only safe to use on Python 3.6. _Black_
+will detect if your file is already 3.6+ only and use trailing commas in this situation.
+If you wonder how it knows, it looks for f-strings and existing use of trailing commas
+in function signatures that have stars in them. In other words, if you'd like a trailing
+comma in this situation and _Black_ didn't 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 string literals that ended up on the same line (see
+[#26](https://github.com/psf/black/issues/26) for details).
+
+Why settle on double quotes? They anticipate apostrophes in English text. They match the
+docstring standard described in
+[PEP 257](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/#what-is-a-docstring). An empty
+string in double quotes (`""`) is impossible to confuse with a one double-quote
+regardless of fonts and syntax highlighting used. On top of this, double quotes for
+strings are consistent with C which Python interacts a lot with.
+
+On certain keyboard layouts like US English, typing single quotes is a bit easier than
+double quotes. The latter requires use of the Shift 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.
+
+### Numeric literals
+
+_Black_ standardizes most numeric literals to use lowercase letters for the syntactic
+parts and uppercase letters for the digits themselves: `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`.
+
+### 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 recent changes in the
+[PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#should-a-line-break-before-or-after-a-binary-operator)
+style guide, which emphasizes that this approach improves readability.
+
+This behaviour may raise `W503 line break before binary operator` warnings in 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)
+to treat `:` in slices as a binary operator with the lowest priority, and to leave an
+equal amount of space on either side, except if a parameter is omitted (e.g.
+`ham[1 + 1 :]`). It also states that for extended slices, both `:` operators have to
+have the same amount of spacing, except if a parameter is omitted (`ham[1 + 1 ::]`).
+_Black_ enforces these rules consistently.
+
+This behaviour may raise `E203 whitespace before ':'` warnings in style guide
+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 be wrapped in a
+pair of parentheses to form an atom. There are a few interesting cases:
+
+- `if (...):`
+- `while (...):`
+- `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. 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:

+```

+### Call chains

 
 

-> Black is opinionated so you don't have to be.
+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:

 
 

-**Hynek Schlawack**, [creator of `attrs`](http://www.attrs.org/), core
-developer of Twisted and CPython:
+```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()
+    )
+```

 
 

-> An auto-formatter that doesn't suck is all I want for Xmas!
+### Typing stub files

 
 

-**Carl Meyer**, [Django](https://www.djangoproject.com/) core developer:
+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).

 
 

-> At least the name is good.
+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:

 
 

-**Kenneth Reitz**, creator of [`requests`](http://python-requests.org/)
-and [`pipenv`](https://docs.pipenv.org/):
+- 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.

 
 

-> This vastly improves the formatting of our code. Thanks a ton!
+_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]`.

 
 

-## Tests
+## Pragmatism

 
 

-Just run:
+Early versions of _Black_ used to be absolutist in some respects. They took after its
+initial author. This was fine at the time as it made the implementation simpler and
+there were not many users anyway. Not many edge cases were reported. As a mature tool,
+_Black_ does make some exceptions to rules it otherwise holds. This section documents
+what those exceptions are and why this is the case.

 
 

+### The magic trailing comma
+
+_Black_ in general does not take existing formatting into account.
+
+However, there are cases where you put a short collection or function call in your code
+but you anticipate it will grow in the future.
+
+For example:
+
+```py3
+TRANSLATIONS = {
+    "en_us": "English (US)",
+    "pl_pl": "polski",
+}

 ```
 ```

-python setup.py test
+
+Early versions of _Black_ used to ruthlessly collapse those into one line (it fits!).
+Now, you can communicate that you don't want that by putting a trailing comma in the
+collection yourself. When you do, _Black_ will know to always explode your collection
+into one item per line.
+
+How do you make it stop? Just delete that trailing comma and _Black_ will collapse your
+collection into one line if it fits.
+
+### r"strings" and R"strings"
+
+_Black_ normalizes string quotes as well as string prefixes, making them lowercase. One
+exception to this rule is r-strings. It turns out that the very popular
+[MagicPython](https://github.com/MagicStack/MagicPython/) syntax highlighter, used by
+default by (among others) GitHub and Visual Studio Code, differentiates between
+r-strings and R-strings. The former are syntax highlighted as regular expressions while
+the latter are treated as true raw strings with no special semantics.
+
+## 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.
+
+Please note `blackd` will not use `pyproject.toml` configuration.
+
+### 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
+target-version = ['py37']
+include = '\.pyi?$'
+exclude = '''
+
+(
+  /(
+      \.eggs         # exclude a few common directories in the
+    | \.git          # root of the project
+    | \.hg
+    | \.mypy_cache
+    | \.tox
+    | \.venv
+    | _build
+    | buck-out
+    | build
+    | dist
+  )/
+  | foo.py           # also separately exclude a file named foo.py in
+                     # the root of the project
+)
+'''

 ```
 
 ```

-But you can reformat Python 2 code with it, too.  *Black* is able to parse
-all of the new syntax supported on Python 3.6 but also *effectively all*
-the Python 2 syntax at the same time, as long as you're not using print
-statements.
+### Lookup hierarchy

 
 

-By making the code exclusively Python 3.6+, I'm able to focus on the
-quality of the formatting and re-use all the nice features of the new
-releases (check out [pathlib](https://docs.python.org/3/library/pathlib.html) or
-f-strings) instead of wasting cycles on Unicode compatibility, and so on.
+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.

+3. Open External tools in PyCharm/IntelliJ IDEA

 
 

-* don't remove single empty lines outside of bracketed expressions
-  (#19)
+On macOS:

 
 

-* added ability to pipe formatting from stdin to stdin (#25)

+On Windows / Linux / BSD:

 
 

+`File -> Settings -> Tools -> External Tools`

 
 

-### 18.3a2
+4. Click the + icon to add a new external tool with the following values:

 
 

-* 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)

+   - Description: Black is the uncompromising Python code formatter.
+   - Program: <install_location_from_step_2>
+   - Arguments: `"$FilePath$"`

 
 

-* ignore empty bracket pairs while splitting. This avoids very weirdly
-  looking formattings (#34, #35)
+5. Format the currently opened file by selecting `Tools -> External Tools -> black`.

 
 

-* remove a trailing comma if there is a single argument to a call
+   - Alternatively, you can set a keyboard shortcut by navigating to
+     `Preferences or Settings -> Keymap -> External Tools -> External Tools - Black`.

 
 

-* if top level functions were separated by a comment, don't put four
-  empty lines after the upper function
+6. Optionally, run _Black_ on every file save:

 
 

-* fixed unstable formatting of newlines with imports
+   1. Make sure you have the
+      [File Watcher](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: `$ProjectFileDir$`

 
 

-* fixed unintentional folding of post scriptum standalone comments
-  into last statement if it was a simple statement (#18, #28)
+   - Uncheck "Auto-save edited files to trigger the watcher"

 
 

-* fixed missing space in numpy-style array indexing (#33)
+### Wing IDE

 
 

-* fixed spurious space after star-based unary expressions (#31)
+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`.

 
 

-### 18.3a1
+```console
+$ pip install black
+```

 
 

-* added `--check`
+2. Make sure it runs from the command line, e.g.

 
 

-* only put trailing commas in function signatures and calls if it's
-  safe to do so. If the file is Python 3.6+ it's always safe, otherwise
-  only safe if there are no `*args` or `**kwargs` used in the signature
-  or call. (#8)
+```console
+$ black --help
+```

 
 

-* fixed invalid spacing of dots in relative imports (#6, #13)
+3. In Wing IDE, activate the **OS Commands** panel and define the command **black** to
+   execute black on the currently selected file:

 
 

-* fixed invalid splitting after comma on unpacked variables in for-loops
-  (#23)
+- 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

 
 

-* fixed spurious space in parenthesized set expressions (#7)
+4. Select a file in the editor and press **F1** , or whatever key binding you selected
+   in step 3, to reformat the file.

 
 

-* fixed spurious space after opening parentheses and in default
-  arguments (#14, #17)
+### Vim

 
 

-* fixed spurious space after unary operators when the operand was
-  a complex expression (#15)
+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.

 
 

-### 18.3a0
+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' }
+```

 
 

-* first published version, Happy 🍰 Day 2018!
+or with [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim):

 
 

-* alpha quality
+```
+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/master/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>
+```

+## 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.
+```
+
+There is no official blackd client tool (yet!). You can test that blackd is working
+using `curl`:
+
+```
+blackd --bind-port 9090 &  # or let blackd choose a port
+curl -s -XPOST "localhost:9090" -d "print('valid')"
+```
+
+### 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 `py`. For example,
+  to request code that is compatible with Python 3.5 and 3.6, set the header to
+  `py3.5,py3.6`.
+- `X-Diff`: corresponds to the `--diff` command line flag. If present, a diff of the
+  formats will be output.
+
+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.
+
+The response headers include a `X-Black-Version` header containing the version of
+_Black_.
+
+## Version control integration
+
+Use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/). Once you
+[have it installed](https://pre-commit.com/#install), add this to the
+`.pre-commit-config.yaml` in your repository:
+
+```yaml
+repos:
+  - repo: https://github.com/psf/black
+    rev: stable
+    hooks:
+      - id: black
+        language_version: python3.6
+```
+
+Then run `pre-commit install` and you're ready to go.
+
+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](https://github.com/psf/black/blob/master/pyproject.toml) for an
+example.
+
+If you're already using Python 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.
+
+## Ignoring unmodified files
+
+_Black_ remembers files it has already formatted, unless the `--diff` flag is used or
+code is passed via standard input. This information is stored per-user. The exact
+location of the file depends on the _Black_ version and the system on which _Black_ 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>.<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.
+
+To override the location of these files on macOS or Linux, set the environment variable
+`XDG_CACHE_HOME` to your preferred location. For example, if you want to put the cache
+in the directory you're running _Black_ from, set `XDG_CACHE_HOME=.cache`. _Black_ will
+then write the above files to `.cache/black/<version>/`.
+
+## Used by
+
+The following notable open-source projects trust _Black_ with enforcing a consistent
+code style: pytest, tox, Pyramid, Django Channels, Hypothesis, attrs, SQLAlchemy,
+Poetry, PyPA applications (Warehouse, Pipenv, virtualenv), pandas, Pillow, every Datadog
+Agent Integration, Home Assistant.

+## Contributing to _Black_
+
+In terms of inspiration, _Black_ is about as configurable as _gofmt_. This is
+deliberate.
+
+Bug reports and fixes are always welcome! However, before you suggest a new feature or
+configuration knob, ask yourself why you want it. If it enables better integration with
+some workflow, fixes an inconsistency, speeds things up, and so on - go for it! On the
+other hand, if your answer is "because I don't like a particular formatting" then you're
+not ready to embrace _Black_ yet. Such changes are unlikely to get accepted. You can
+still try but prepare to be disappointed.
+
+More details can be found in [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md).
