Watch the +[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**. +**[Read the documentation on ReadTheDocs!](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable)** -Also, as a temporary safety measure, *Black* will check that the -reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is equivalent to the -original.

[default: 88] - --check Don't write back the files, just return the - status. Return code 0 means nothing changed. - Return code 1 means some files were reformatted. - Return code 123 means there was an internal - error. - --fast / --safe If --fast given, skip temporary sanity checks. - [default: --safe] - --version Show the version and exit. - --help Show this message and exit. -``` - - -## The philosophy behind *Black* - -*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. +_Black_ can be installed by running `pip install black`. It requires Python 3.6.2+ to +run. If you want to format Jupyter Notebooks, install with +`pip install 'black[jupyter]'`. +If you can't wait for the latest _hotness_ and want to install from GitHub, use: -### How *Black* formats files +`pip install git+https://github.com/psf/black` -*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. +### Usage -As for vertical whitespace, *Black* tries to render one full expression -or simple statement per line. If this fits the allotted line length, -great. -```py3 -# in: -l = [1, - 2, - 3, -] +To get started right away with sensible defaults: -# out: -l = [1, 2, 3] +```sh +black {source_file_or_directory} ``` -If not, *Black* will look at the contents of the first outer matching -brackets and put that in a separate indented line. -```py3 -# in: -l = [[n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()]] +You can run _Black_ as a package if running it as a script doesn't work: -# out: -l = [ - [n for n in list_bosses()], [n for n in list_employees()] -] +```sh +python -m black {source_file_or_directory} ``` -If that still doesn't fit the bill, it will decompose the internal -expression further using the same rule, indenting matching brackets -every time. If the contents of the matching brackets pair are -comma-separated (like an argument list, or a dict literal, and so on) -then *Black* will first try to keep them on the same line with the -matching brackets. If that doesn't work, it will put all of them in -separate lines. -```py3 -# in: -def very_important_function(template: str, *variables, file: os.PathLike, debug: bool = False): - """Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`.""" - with open(file, 'w') as f: - ... - -# out: -def very_important_function( - template: str, - *variables, - file: os.PathLike, - debug: bool = False, -): - """Applies `variables` to the `template` and writes to `file`.""" - with open(file, 'w') as f: - ... -``` +Further information can be found in our docs: -You might have noticed that closing brackets are always dedented and -that a trailing comma is always added. Such formatting produces smaller -diffs; when you add or remove an element, it's always just one line. -Also, having the closing bracket dedented provides a clear delimiter -between two distinct sections of the code that otherwise share the same -indentation level (like the arguments list and the docstring in the -example above). - -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. - -*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. - -That's it. The rest of the whitespace formatting rules follow PEP 8 and -are designed to keep `pycodestyle` quiet. - - -### 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: -```ini -[flake8] -max-line-length = 80 -... -select = C,E,F,W,B,B950 -ignore = E501 -``` +- [Usage and Configuration](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/usage_and_configuration/index.html) -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". +_Black_ is already [successfully used](https://github.com/psf/black#used-by) by many +projects, small and big. _Black_ has a comprehensive test suite, with efficient parallel +tests, and our own auto formatting and parallel Continuous Integration runner. Now that +we have become stable, you should not expect large formatting to changes in the future. +Stylistic changes will mostly be responses to bug reports and support for new Python +syntax. For more information please refer to the +[The Black Code Style](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/the_black_code_style/index.html). +Also, as a safety measure which slows down processing, _Black_ will check that the +reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is effectively equivalent to the +original (see the +[Pragmatism](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/the_black_code_style/current_style.html#ast-before-and-after-formatting) +section for details). If you're feeling confident, use `--fast`. -### Empty lines +## The _Black_ code style -*Black* will allow single empty lines left by the original editors, -except when they're added within parenthesized expressions. Since such -expressions are always reformatted to fit minimal space, this whitespace -is lost. +_Black_ is a PEP 8 compliant opinionated formatter. _Black_ reformats entire files in +place. Style configuration options are deliberately limited and rarely added. It doesn't +take previous formatting into account (see +[Pragmatism](https://black.readthedocs.io/en/stable/the_black_code_style/current_style.html#pragmatism) +for exceptions). -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 put those empty lines also -between the function definition and any standalone comments that -immediately precede the given function. If you want to comment on the -entire function, use a docstring or put a leading comment in the function -body. +Our documentation covers the current _Black_ code style, but planned changes to it are +also documented.
