 ### 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

-line.  This makes it 1% more likely that your line won't exceed the

-anyway.  That doesn't make diffs any larger.
-

-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

 ### Typing stub files
 
 ### Typing stub files

-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]`.

+## Pragmatism

 
 

-### What on Earth is a `pyproject.toml` file?
+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.

 
 

-[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.
+### The magic trailing comma

 
 

+_Black_ in general does not take existing formatting into account.

 
 

-### Where *Black* looks for the file
+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.

 
 

-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.
+For example:

 
 

-If you're formatting standard input, *Black* will look for configuration
-starting from the current working directory.
+```py3
+TRANSLATIONS = {
+    "en_us": "English (US)",
+    "pl_pl": "polski",
+}
+```

 
 

-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.
+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.

 
 

-If you're running with `--verbose`, you will see a blue message if
-a file was found and used.
+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.

-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.
+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:

 
 

-To run *Black* on save, add the following line to `.vimrc` or `init.vim`:

+```console
+$ pip install black

 ```
 ```

-autocmd BufWritePre *.py execute ':Black'

-
-**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 --with-python3`.
-When building Vim from source, use:
-`./configure --enable-python3interp=yes`. There's many guides online how
-to do this.
-
-
-### 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

+2. Make sure it runs from the command line, e.g.

 
 

-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.
-
-
-### Other editors
-
-Atom/Nuclide integration is planned by the author, others 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 [File Watchers](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/file-watchers.html).
-
-
-## 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/ambv/black
-    rev: stable
-    hooks:
-    - id: black
-      language_version: python3.6
+```console
+$ black --help

 ```
 ```

-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`
-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>.pickle`
-* macOS: `/Users/<username>/Library/Caches/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`
-* Linux: `/home/<username>/.cache/black/<version>/cache.<line-length>.pickle`

-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.

+```
+mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/python/start/black/plugin

+```

 
 

-### 18.4a4
+Let me know if this requires any changes to work with Vim 8's builtin `packadd`, or
+Pathogen, and so on.

 
 

-* don't populate the cache on `--check` (#175)
+This plugin **requires Vim 7.0+ built with Python 3.6+ support**. It needs Python 3.6 to

-* added a "cache"; files already reformatted that haven't changed on disk
-  won't be reformatted again (#109)
+To run _Black_ on save, add the following line to `.vimrc` or `init.vim`:

 
 

-* `--check` and `--diff` are no longer mutually exclusive (#149)
+```
+autocmd BufWritePre *.py execute ':Black'
+```

 
 

-* generalized star expression handling, including double stars; this
-  fixes multiplication making expressions "unsafe" for trailing commas (#132)
+To run _Black_ on a key press (e.g. F9 below), add this:

 
 

-* *Black* no longer enforces putting empty lines behind control flow statements
-  (#90)
+```
+nnoremap <F9> :Black<CR>

-### 18.4a1
+### Thonny

 
 

-* added `--quiet` (#78)
+Use [Thonny-black-code-format](https://github.com/Franccisco/thonny-black-code-format).

 
 

-* added automatic parentheses management (#4)
+### Other editors

 
 

-* added [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com) integration (#103, #104)
+Other editors will require external contributions.

 
 

-* fixed reporting on `--check` with multiple files (#101, #102)
+Patches welcome! ✨ 🍰 ✨

 
 

-* fixed removing backslash escapes from raw strings (#100, #105)
+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).

 
 

-### 18.4a0
+## blackd

 
 

-* added `--diff` (#87)
+`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.

 
 

-* add line breaks before all delimiters, except in cases like commas, to
-  better comply with PEP 8 (#73)
+### Usage

 
 

-* standardize string literals to use double quotes (almost) everywhere
-  (#75)
+`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.

 
 

-* fixed handling of standalone comments within nested bracketed
-  expressions; *Black* will no longer produce super long lines or put all
-  standalone comments at the end of the expression (#22)
+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.

 
 

-* fixed 18.3a4 regression: don't crash and burn on empty lines with
-  trailing whitespace (#80)
+`blackd` provides even less options than _Black_. You can see them by running
+`blackd --help`:

 
 

-* fixed 18.3a4 regression: `# yapf: disable` usage as trailing comment
-  would cause *Black* to not emit the rest of the file (#95)
+```text
+Usage: blackd [OPTIONS]

 
 

-* when CTRL+C is pressed while formatting many files, *Black* no longer
-  freaks out with a flurry of asyncio-related exceptions
+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.
+```

 
 

-* only allow up to two empty lines on module level and only single empty
-  lines within functions (#74)
+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')"
+```

 
 

-### 18.3a4
+### 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_.

 
 

-* `# fmt: off` and `# fmt: on` are implemented (#5)
+## Version control integration

 
 

-* automatic detection of deprecated Python 2 forms of print statements
-  and exec statements in the formatted file (#49)
+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:

 
 

-* use proper spaces for complex expressions in default values of typed
-  function arguments (#60)
+```yaml
+repos:
+  - repo: https://github.com/psf/black
+    rev: stable
+    hooks:
+      - id: black
+        language_version: python3.6
+```

 
 

-* only return exit code 1 when --check is used (#50)
+Then run `pre-commit install` and you're ready to go.

 
 

-* don't remove single trailing commas from square bracket indexing
-  (#59)
+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.

 
 

-* don't omit whitespace if the previous factor leaf wasn't a math
-  operator (#55)
+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.

 
 

-* omit extra space in kwarg unpacking if it's the first argument (#46)
+## Ignoring unmodified files

 
 

-* omit extra space in [Sphinx auto-attribute comments](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/ext/autodoc.html#directive-autoattribute)
-  (#68)
+_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`

 
 

-### 18.3a3
+`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.

 
 

-* don't remove single empty lines outside of bracketed expressions
-  (#19)
+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>/`.

 
 

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

 
 

-* restored ability to format code with legacy usage of `async` as
-  a name (#20, #42)
+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.

 
 

-* even better handling of numpy-style array indexing (#33, again)
+The following organizations use _Black_: Dropbox.

 
 

+Are we missing anyone? Let us know.

 
 

-### 18.3a2
+## Testimonials

 
 

-* changed positioning of binary operators to occur at beginning of lines
-  instead of at the end, following [a recent change to PEP 8](https://github.com/python/peps/commit/c59c4376ad233a62ca4b3a6060c81368bd21e85b)
-  (#21)
+**Dusty Phillips**,
+[writer](https://smile.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=dusty+phillips):

 
 

-* ignore empty bracket pairs while splitting. This avoids very weirdly
-  looking formattings (#34, #35)
+> _Black_ is opinionated so you don't have to be.

 
 

-* remove a trailing comma if there is a single argument to a call
+**Hynek Schlawack**, [creator of `attrs`](https://www.attrs.org/), core developer of
+Twisted and CPython:

 
 

-* if top level functions were separated by a comment, don't put four
-  empty lines after the upper function
+> An auto-formatter that doesn't suck is all I want for Xmas!

 
 

-* fixed unstable formatting of newlines with imports
+**Carl Meyer**, [Django](https://www.djangoproject.com/) core developer:

 
 

-* fixed unintentional folding of post scriptum standalone comments
-  into last statement if it was a simple statement (#18, #28)
+> At least the name is good.

 
 

-* fixed missing space in numpy-style array indexing (#33)
+**Kenneth Reitz**, creator of [`requests`](http://python-requests.org/) and
+[`pipenv`](https://docs.pipenv.org/):

 
 

-* fixed spurious space after star-based unary expressions (#31)
+> This vastly improves the formatting of our code. Thanks a ton!

 
 

+## Show your style

 
 

-### 18.3a1
+Use the badge in your project's README.md:

 
 

-* added `--check`
+```markdown
+[![Code style: black](https://img.shields.io/badge/code%20style-black-000000.svg)](https://github.com/psf/black)
+```

 
 

-* 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)
+Using the badge in README.rst:

 
 

-* fixed invalid spacing of dots in relative imports (#6, #13)
+```
+.. image:: https://img.shields.io/badge/code%20style-black-000000.svg
+    :target: https://github.com/psf/black
+```

 
 

-* fixed invalid splitting after comma on unpacked variables in for-loops
-  (#23)
+Looks like this:
+[![Code style: black](https://img.shields.io/badge/code%20style-black-000000.svg)](https://github.com/psf/black)

 
 

-* fixed spurious space in parenthesized set expressions (#7)
+## License

 
 

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

 
 

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

 
 

+In terms of inspiration, _Black_ is about as configurable as _gofmt_. This is
+deliberate.

 
 

-### 18.3a0
+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.

 
 

-* first published version, Happy 🍰 Day 2018!
+More details can be found in [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md).

 
 

-* alpha quality
+## Change Log

 
 

-* date-versioned (see: https://calver.org/)
+The log's become rather long. It moved to its own file.

 
 

+See [CHANGES](CHANGES.md).
