Black classes

Contents are subject to change.

BracketTracker

class black.brackets.BracketTracker(depth: int = 0, bracket_match: ~typing.Dict[~typing.Tuple[int, int], ~blib2to3.pytree.Leaf] = <factory>, delimiters: ~typing.Dict[int, int] = <factory>, previous: ~typing.Optional[~blib2to3.pytree.Leaf] = None, _for_loop_depths: ~typing.List[int] = <factory>, _lambda_argument_depths: ~typing.List[int] = <factory>, invisible: ~typing.List[~blib2to3.pytree.Leaf] = <factory>)

Keeps track of brackets on a line.

mark(leaf: Leaf) → None

Mark leaf with bracket-related metadata. Keep track of delimiters.

All leaves receive an int bracket_depth field that stores how deep within brackets a given leaf is. 0 means there are no enclosing brackets that started on this line.

If a leaf is itself a closing bracket, it receives an opening_bracket field that it forms a pair with. This is a one-directional link to avoid reference cycles.

If a leaf is a delimiter (a token on which Black can split the line if needed) and it’s on depth 0, its id() is stored in the tracker’s delimiters field.

any_open_brackets() → bool

Return True if there is an yet unmatched open bracket on the line.

max_delimiter_priority(exclude: Iterable[int] = ()) → int

Return the highest priority of a delimiter found on the line.

Values are consistent with what is_split_*_delimiter() return. Raises ValueError on no delimiters.

delimiter_count_with_priority(priority: int = 0) → int

Return the number of delimiters with the given priority.

If no priority is passed, defaults to max priority on the line.

maybe_increment_for_loop_variable(leaf: Leaf) → bool

In a for loop, or comprehension, the variables are often unpacks.

To avoid splitting on the comma in this situation, increase the depth of tokens between for and in.

maybe_decrement_after_for_loop_variable(leaf: Leaf) → bool

See maybe_increment_for_loop_variable above for explanation.

maybe_increment_lambda_arguments(leaf: Leaf) → bool

In a lambda expression, there might be more than one argument.

To avoid splitting on the comma in this situation, increase the depth of tokens between lambda and :.

maybe_decrement_after_lambda_arguments(leaf: Leaf) → bool

See maybe_increment_lambda_arguments above for explanation.

get_open_lsqb() → Optional[Leaf]

Return the most recent opening square bracket (if any).

EmptyLineTracker

class black.EmptyLineTracker(is_pyi: bool = False, previous_line: ~typing.Optional[~black.lines.Line] = None, previous_after: int = 0, previous_defs: ~typing.List[int] = <factory>)

Provides a stateful method that returns the number of potential extra empty lines needed before and after the currently processed line.

Note: this tracker works on lines that haven’t been split yet. It assumes the prefix of the first leaf consists of optional newlines. Those newlines are consumed by maybe_empty_lines() and included in the computation.

maybe_empty_lines(current_line: Line) → Tuple[int, int]

Return the number of extra empty lines before and after the current_line.

This is for separating def, async def and class with extra empty lines (two on module-level).

Line

class black.Line(mode: ~black.mode.Mode, depth: int = 0, leaves: ~typing.List[~blib2to3.pytree.Leaf] = <factory>, comments: ~typing.Dict[int, ~typing.List[~blib2to3.pytree.Leaf]] = <factory>, bracket_tracker: ~black.brackets.BracketTracker = <factory>, inside_brackets: bool = False, should_split_rhs: bool = False, magic_trailing_comma: ~typing.Optional[~blib2to3.pytree.Leaf] = None)

Holds leaves and comments. Can be printed with str(line).

append(leaf: Leaf, preformatted: bool = False) → None

Add a new leaf to the end of the line.

Unless preformatted is True, the leaf will receive a new consistent whitespace prefix and metadata applied by BracketTracker. Trailing commas are maybe removed, unpacked for loop variables are demoted from being delimiters.

Inline comments are put aside.

append_safe(leaf: Leaf, preformatted: bool = False) → None

Like append() but disallow invalid standalone comment structure.

Raises ValueError when any leaf is appended after a standalone comment or when a standalone comment is not the first leaf on the line.

property is_comment: bool

Is this line a standalone comment?

property is_decorator: bool

Is this line a decorator?

property is_import: bool

Is this an import line?

property is_class: bool

Is this line a class definition?

property is_stub_class: bool

Is this line a class definition with a body consisting only of “…”?

property is_def: bool

Is this a function definition? (Also returns True for async defs.)

property is_class_paren_empty: bool

Is this a class with no base classes but using parentheses?

Those are unnecessary and should be removed.

property is_triple_quoted_string: bool

Is the line a triple quoted string?

property opens_block: bool

Does this line open a new level of indentation.

contains_standalone_comments(depth_limit: int = 9223372036854775807) → bool

If so, needs to be split before emitting.

has_magic_trailing_comma(closing: Leaf, ensure_removable: bool = False) → bool

Return True if we have a magic trailing comma, that is when: - there’s a trailing comma here - it’s not a one-tuple - it’s not a single-element subscript Additionally, if ensure_removable: - it’s not from square bracket indexing

append_comment(comment: Leaf) → bool

Add an inline or standalone comment to the line.

comments_after(leaf: Leaf) → List[Leaf]

Generate comments that should appear directly after leaf.

remove_trailing_comma() → None

Remove the trailing comma and moves the comments attached to it.

is_complex_subscript(leaf: Leaf) → bool

Return True iff leaf is part of a slice with non-trivial exprs.

enumerate_with_length(reversed: bool = False) → Iterator[Tuple[int, Leaf, int]]

Return an enumeration of leaves with their length.

Stops prematurely on multiline strings and standalone comments.

__str__() → str

Render the line.

__bool__() → bool

Return True if the line has leaves or comments.

LineGenerator

class black.LineGenerator(mode: Mode)

Bases: Visitor[Line]

Generates reformatted Line objects. Empty lines are not emitted.

Note: destroys the tree it’s visiting by mutating prefixes of its leaves in ways that will no longer stringify to valid Python code on the tree.

line(indent: int = 0) → Iterator[Line]

Generate a line.

If the line is empty, only emit if it makes sense. If the line is too long, split it first and then generate.

If any lines were generated, set up a new current_line.

visit_default(node: Union[Leaf, Node]) → Iterator[Line]

Default visit_*() implementation. Recurses to children of node.

visit_INDENT(node: Leaf) → Iterator[Line]

Increase indentation level, maybe yield a line.

visit_DEDENT(node: Leaf) → Iterator[Line]

Decrease indentation level, maybe yield a line.

visit_stmt(node: Node, keywords: Set[str], parens: Set[str]) → Iterator[Line]

Visit a statement.

This implementation is shared for if, while, for, try, except, def, with, class, assert, and assignments.

The relevant Python language keywords for a given statement will be NAME leaves within it. This methods puts those on a separate line.

parens holds a set of string leaf values immediately after which invisible parens should be put.

visit_funcdef(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Visit function definition.

visit_match_case(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Visit either a match or case statement.

visit_suite(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Visit a suite.

visit_simple_stmt(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Visit a statement without nested statements.

visit_async_stmt(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Visit async def, async for, async with.

visit_decorators(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Visit decorators.

visit_SEMI(leaf: Leaf) → Iterator[Line]

Remove a semicolon and put the other statement on a separate line.

visit_ENDMARKER(leaf: Leaf) → Iterator[Line]

End of file. Process outstanding comments and end with a newline.

visit_factor(node: Node) → Iterator[Line]

Force parentheses between a unary op and a binary power:

-2 ** 8 -> -(2 ** 8)

ProtoComment

class black.comments.ProtoComment(type: int, value: str, newlines: int, consumed: int)

Describes a piece of syntax that is a comment.

It’s not a blib2to3.pytree.Leaf so that:

• it can be cached (Leaf objects should not be reused more than once as they store their lineno, column, prefix, and parent information);

• newlines and consumed fields are kept separate from the value. This simplifies handling of special marker comments like # fmt: off/on.

Report

class black.Report(check: bool = False, diff: bool = False, quiet: bool = False, verbose: bool = False, change_count: int = 0, same_count: int = 0, failure_count: int = 0)

Provides a reformatting counter. Can be rendered with str(report).

done(src: Path, changed: Changed) → None

Increment the counter for successful reformatting. Write out a message.

failed(src: Path, message: str) → None

Increment the counter for failed reformatting. Write out a message.

property return_code: int

Return the exit code that the app should use.

This considers the current state of changed files and failures: - if there were any failures, return 123; - if any files were changed and –check is being used, return 1; - otherwise return 0.

__str__() → str

Render a color report of the current state.

Use click.unstyle to remove colors.

Visitor

class black.nodes.Visitor(*args, **kwds)

Bases: Generic[T]

Basic lib2to3 visitor that yields things of type T on visit().

visit(node: Union[Leaf, Node]) → Iterator[T]

Main method to visit node and its children.

It tries to find a visit_*() method for the given node.type, like visit_simple_stmt for Node objects or visit_INDENT for Leaf objects. If no dedicated visit_*() method is found, chooses visit_default() instead.

Then yields objects of type T from the selected visitor.

visit_default(node: Union[Leaf, Node]) → Iterator[T]

Default visit_*() implementation. Recurses to children of node.
