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. + +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/python/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: +```py3 +return not (this or that) +decision = (maybe.this() and values > 0) or (maybe.that() and values < 0) +``` + + +### Call chains + +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: +```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() + ) +``` + + +### Typing stub files + +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). + +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]`. + + +## 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. + +
+Example `pyproject.toml` + +```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 +) +''' +``` + +
+ +### 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 + +Use [proofit404/blacken](https://github.com/proofit404/blacken) or +[Elpy](https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy). + + +### PyCharm/IntelliJ IDEA + +1.

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 or IntelliJ's [File Watchers](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/file-watchers.html). + +## 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. +``` + +### 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`. + +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. + +## 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/python/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` +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\\AppData\Local\black\black\Cache\\cache...pickle` +* macOS: `/Users//Library/Caches/black//cache...pickle` +* Linux: `/home//.cache/black//cache...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. + + +## 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). + +Are we missing anyone?
