Package: black-with-tabs
The Somewhat Compromised Code Formatter“Any color you like.”This is not the official Black package!Get thathere.Black (with tabs)is the uncompromising Python code formatter. By using it, you agree
to cede control over minutiae of hand-formatting. In return,Black (with tabs)gives
you speed, determinism, and freedom frompycodestylenagging about formatting. You
will save time and mental energy for more important matters.Oh, also, now it's using tabs for indentation instead of spaces. In general, whitespace
(except for the initial indent) in docstrings is left alone. Whitespace in multiline
string literals should always be left alone.Tabs are good for indenting. Don't use them for alignment. No shade at folks who choose
spaces instead. We just prefer tabs.Blackened code looks the same regardless of the project you're reading. Formatting
becomes transparent after a while and you can focus on the content instead.Black (with tabs)makes code review faster by producing the smallest diffs possible.Try out the original using theBlack Playground. Watch thePyCon 2019 talkto learn more.IMPORTANTBlack (with tabs)does NOT provide a separate command line interface from the originalBlack. It's still justblack. So, they cannot coexist (without virtual environments,
anyways). Pick one!Read the documentation on ReadTheDocs!Installation and usageInstallationBlack (with tabs)can be installed by runningpip install black-with-tabs. It
requires Python 3.7+ to run. If you want to format Jupyter Notebooks, install withpip install 'black[jupyter]'.If you can't wait for the latesthotnessand want to install from GitHub...Too bad!! We don't have the black-with-tabs source up publicly at the moment. Though
please email jrowley at marcusengineering dot com to receive a copy.UsageTo get started right away with sensible defaults:black{source_file_or_directory}You can runBlack (with tabs)as a package if running it as a script doesn't work:python-mblack{source_file_or_directory}Further information can be found in our docs:Usage and ConfigurationBlackis alreadysuccessfully usedby many
projects, small and big.Blackhas 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 theThe Black Code Style.Also, as a safety measure which slows down processing,Blackwill check that the
reformatted code still produces a valid AST that is effectively equivalent to the
original (see thePragmatismsection for details). If you're feeling confident, use--fast.TheBlackcode styleBlackis a PEP 8 compliant** opinionated formatter.Blackreformats entire files
in place. Style configuration options are deliberately limited and rarely added. It
doesn't take previous formatting into account (seePragmatismfor exceptions).Our documentation covers the currentBlackcode style, but planned changes to it are
also documented. They're both worth taking a look:TheBlackCode Style: Current styleTheBlackCode Style: Future styleChanges to theBlackcode style are bound by the Stability Policy:TheBlackCode Style: Stability PolicyPlease refer to this document before submitting an issue. What seems like a bug might be
intended behaviour.** except, of course,Black (with tabs)is not using spaces for indentation...PragmatismEarly versions ofBlackused 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,Blackdoes make some exceptions to rules it otherwise holds.TheBlackcode style: PragmatismPlease refer to this document before submitting an issue just like with the document
above. What seems like a bug might be intended behaviour.ConfigurationBlackis able to read project-specific default values for its command line options
from apyproject.tomlfile. This is especially useful for specifying custom--includeand--exclude/--force-exclude/--extend-excludepatterns for your
project.You can find more details in our documentation:The basics: Configuration via a fileAnd if you're looking for more general configuration documentation:Usage and ConfigurationPro-tip: If you're asking yourself "Do I need to configure anything?" the answer is
"No".Blackis all about sensible defaults. Applying those defaults will have your
code in compliance with many otherBlackformatted projects.Used byMarcus Engineering, LLCAnd YOU!TestimonialsJames Rowley,engineer at Marcus Engineering:Deferring to the judgement of this wonderful automated tool has saved so much time and
