So, what’s your current go-to #Python#QA & #codestyle stack? Thinking of doing black, isort, mypy, pytest, but open for suggestions.
My main project currently uses flake8 instead of black, with flake8-quotes to enforce double quotes, but this breaks in Python 3.12 because of nested quotes in f-strings: https://github.com/zheller/flake8-quotes/issues/117
@scy The last time I set this up for a project (a few months ago) I used black, ruff, and mypy as static checks, run by pre-commit; and pytest for runtime testing, run by tox. It seems like a good setup. E.g. ruff covers a lot of stuff that would otherwise be handled by other tools like isort and flake8.
FWIW I like black for two reasons: (1) I love the idea of styling that completely discards any preexisting formatting by parsing and reconstructing the code, so it is entirely deterministic, and (2) I actually like the style that black uses - with a longer line length than the default - more than that of any other Python formatter I've tried. If you don't find black's style to improve readability then it would make sense not to use it.
