Integrations

Documentation

22.10.0

Highlights

  • Runtime support for Python 3.6 has been removed. Formatting 3.6 code will still be supported until further notice.

  • Add --skip-source-first-line / -x option to ignore the first line of source code while formatting (#3299)

Packaging

  • Executables made with PyInstaller will no longer crash when formatting several files at once on macOS. Native x86-64 executables for macOS are available once again. (#3275)
  • Hatchling is now used as the build backend. This will not have any effect for users who install Black with its wheels from PyPI. (#3233)
  • Faster compiled wheels are now available for CPython 3.11 (#3276)

  • Update GitHub Action to support use of version specifiers (e.g. <23) for Black version (#3265)

22.8.0

Highlights

  • Python 3.11 is now supported, except for blackd as aiohttp does not support 3.11 as of publishing (#3234)
  • This is the last release that supports running Black on Python 3.6 (formatting 3.6 code will continue to be supported until further notice)
  • Reword the stability policy to say that we may, in rare cases, make changes that affect code that was not previously formatted by Black (#3155)

Stable style

  • Fix an infinite loop when using # fmt: on/off in the middle of an expression or code block (#3158)
  • Fix incorrect handling of # fmt: skip on colon (:) lines (#3148)
  • Comments are no longer deleted when a line had spaces removed around power operators (#2874)

Preview style

  • Single-character closing docstring quotes are no longer moved to their own line as this is invalid. This was a bug introduced in version 22.6.0. (#3166)
  • --skip-string-normalization / -S now prevents docstring prefixes from being normalized as expected (#3168)
  • When using --skip-magic-trailing-comma or -C, trailing commas are stripped from subscript expressions with more than 1 element (#3209)
  • Implicitly concatenated strings inside a list, set, or tuple are now wrapped inside parentheses (#3162)
  • Fix a string merging/split issue when a comment is present in the middle of implicitly concatenated strings on its own line (#3227)

Blackd

  • blackd now supports enabling the preview style via the X-Preview header (#3217)

  • Fix misdetection of project root and verbose logging of sources in cases involving --stdin-filename (#3216)

Integrations

  • Vim plugin: prefix messages with Black: so it's clear they come from Black (#3194)

Output

  • Change from deprecated asyncio.get_event_loop() to create our event loop which removes DeprecationWarning (#3164)
  • Remove logging from internal blib2to3 library since it regularly emits error logs about failed caching that can and should be ignored (#3193)

Parser

  • Type comments are now included in the AST equivalence check consistently so accidental deletion raises an error. Though type comments can't be tracked when running on PyPy 3.7 due to standard library limitations. (#2874)

Performance

  • Reduce Black's startup time when formatting a single file by 15-30% (#3211)

22.6.0
