autopep8 0.8.2

A tool that automatically formats Python code to conform to the PEP 8 style guide

About

autopep8 automatically formats Python code to conform to the PEP 8 style guide. It uses the pep8 utility to determine what parts of the code needs to be formatted. autopep8 is capable of fixing most of the formatting issues that can be reported by pep8.

Installation

from pip:

pip install --upgrade autopep8

from easy_install:

easy_install -ZU autopep8

Requirements

autopep8 requires pep8 (>= 1.3.2). Older versions of pep8 will also work, but autopep8 will run pep8 in a subprocess in that case (for compatibility purposes).

Usage

To modify a file in place:

$ autopep8 -i <filename>

Before:

import sys, os;

def someone_likes_semicolons(                             foo  = None             ,\
bar='bar'):
    """Hello; bye."""; 1; 2;3
    print( 'A'<>foo)            #<> is a deprecated form of !=
    return 0;
def func11():
    a=(   1,2, 3,"a"  );
    b  =[100,200,300  ,9876543210,'This is my very long string that goes on and on'  ]
    return (a, b)
def func2(): total =(324942324324+32434234234234-23423234243/ 324342342.+32423) /1234.
def func22(): return {True: True}.has_key({'foo': 2}.has_key('foo'));
class UselessClass(object):
    def __init__    ( self, bar ):
     if bar : bar+=1;  bar=bar* bar   ; return bar
     else:
                           indentation_in_strings_should_not_be_touched = """
            hello
world
"""
                           raise ValueError, indentation_in_strings_should_not_be_touched
    def my_method(self):
                                              print(self);

After:

import sys
import os


def someone_likes_semicolons(foo=None,
                             bar='bar'):
    """Hello; bye."""
    1
    2
    3
    print('A' != foo)  # <> is a deprecated form of !=
    return 0


def func11():
    a = (1, 2, 3, "a")
    b = [100, 200, 300, 9876543210,
         'This is my very long string that goes on and on']
    return (a, b)


def func2():
    total = (324942324324 + 32434234234234 - 23423234243 / 324342342. +
             32423) / 1234.


def func22():
    return ('foo' in {'foo': 2}) in {True: True}


class UselessClass(object):
    def __init__(self, bar):
        if bar:
            bar += 1
            bar = bar * bar
            return bar
        else:
            indentation_in_strings_should_not_be_touched = """
            hello
world
"""
            raise ValueError(indentation_in_strings_should_not_be_touched)

    def my_method(self):
        print(self)

 A tool that automatically formats Python code to conform to the PEP 8 style
guide.

Options:
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --verbose         print verbose messages; multiple -v result in more

                        maximum number of additional pep8 passes (default:
                        100)
  --ignore=IGNORE       do not fix these errors/warnings (e.g. E4,W)
  --select=SELECT       fix only these errors/warnings (e.g. E4,W)

More advanced usage

To enable only a subset of the fixes, use the –select option. For example, to fix various types of indentation issues:

$ autopep8 --select=E1,W1 <filename>

If the file being fixed is large, you may want to enable verbose progress messages:

$ autopep8 -v <filename>

Large files may also take many more iterations to completely fix. Thus, you may need to increase the maximum number of passes:

$ autopep8 -p 1000 <filename>

Testing

Test cases are in test/test_autopep8.py. They can be run directly via python test/test_autopep8.py or via tox. The latter is useful for testing against multiple Python interpreters.

Broad spectrum testing is available via test/acid.py. This script runs autopep8 against Python code and checks for correctness and completeness of the code fix transformations. test/acid_pypi.py makes use of acid.py to test against the latest released packages on PyPi. In a similar fashion, test/acid_github.py tests against Python code in Github repositories.
