Pyink is a Python code formatter designed as a fork of Black with a small set of different formatting behaviours intended to ease adoption in environments where switching directly to Black would be too disruptive.
The project keeps Black compatibility in mind while adding its own options and behaviour changes, such as configurable indentation, quote-style inference, and support for formatting selected line ranges.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Formats Python code from the command line using a workflow similar to Black.
- Supports two-space or four-space indentation with the
pyink-indentationoption. - Can infer the preferred quote style in a file with the
pyink-use-majority-quotesoption. - Supports formatting only selected line ranges with the
--pyink-linesargument. - Uses a
[tool.pyink]section inpyproject.tomlfor configuration. - Works with the pre-commit framework.
- Maintains a Black-compatible foundation while applying a few distinct formatting rules.
