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. + +
+Example `pyproject.toml` + +```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 +)/ +''' +``` + +
+ +### 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. + + ## Editor integration ### Emacs @@ -632,16 +725,18 @@ repos: rev: stable hooks: - id: black - args: [--line-length=88, --safe] 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.
