Overview

The plain code command lints and formats Python files using Ruff, and JavaScript, JSON, and CSS files using Biome. Ruff is installed as a Python dependency, and Biome is managed automatically as a standalone binary (npm is not required).

The most used command is plain code fix, which can be run using the alias plain fix:

plain fix

This will automatically fix linting issues and format your code according to the configured rules.

If plain.dev is installed then plain code check will be run automatically as a part of plain precommit to help catch issues before they are committed.

Configuration

Default configuration is provided by ruff_defaults.toml and biome_defaults.json.

You can customize the behavior in your pyproject.toml:

[tool.plain.code]
exclude = ["path/to/exclude"]

[tool.plain.code.biome]
enabled = true  # Set to false to disable Biome
version = "1.5.3"  # Pin to a specific version

For more advanced configuration options, see get_code_config.

Generally it's expected that you won't change the configuration! We've tried to pick defaults that "just work" for most projects. If you find yourself needing to customize things, you should probably just move to using the tools themselves directly instead of the plain.code package.

Installation

Install the plain.code package from PyPI:

uv add plain.code
