Options:-c,--codeTEXT
Format the code passed in as a string.
-l,--line-lengthINTEGER
How many characters per line to allow. [default: 88]
-t,--target-version[py27|py33|py34|py35|py36|py37|py38|py39]
Python versions that should be supported by Black's output. [default: per-file auto-
detection]
--pyi Format all input files like typing stubs regardless of file extension (useful when piping
source on standard input).
-S, --skip-string-normalization
Don't normalize string quotes or prefixes.
-C, --skip-magic-trailing-comma
Don't use trailing commas as a reason to split lines.
--check
Don't write the files back, just return the status. Return code 0 means nothing would
change. Return code 1 means some files would be reformatted. Return code 123 means there
was an internal error.
--diff Don't write the files back, just output a diff for each file on stdout.
--color/--no-colorShowcoloreddiff.Onlyapplieswhen--diff is given.
--fast/--safeIf--fastgiven,skiptemporarysanity
checks. [default: --safe]
--includeTEXT
A regular expression that matches files and directories that should be included on
recursive searches. An empty value means all files are included regardless of the name.
Use forward slashes for directories on all platforms (Windows, too). Exclusions are
calculated first, inclusions later. [default: .pyi?$]
--excludeTEXT
A regular expression that matches files and directories that should be excluded on
recursive searches. An empty value means no paths are excluded. Use forward slashes for
directories on all platforms (Windows, too). Exclusions are calculated first, inclusions
later. [default: /(.git|.hg|.mypy_cache| .tox|.venv|_build|buck-out|build|dist)/]
--extend-excludeTEXT
Like --exclude, but adds additional files and directories on top of the excluded ones.
(Useful if you simply want to add to the default)
--force-excludeTEXT
Like --exclude, but files and directories matching this regex will be excluded even when
they are passed explicitly as arguments.
--stdin-filenameTEXT
The name of the file when passing it through stdin. Useful to make sure Black will respect
--force-exclude option on some editors that rely on using stdin.
-q, --quiet
Don't emit non-error messages to stderr. Errors are still emitted, silence those with
2>/dev/null.
-v, --verbose
Also emit messages to stderr about files that were not changed or were ignored due to
--exclude=.
--version
Show the version and exit.
--configFILE
Read configuration from PATH.
-h, --help
Show this message and exit.
