**pyformatter** is a suite of Python formatting tools that automatically formats your docstrings and comments according to configurable style guidelines. It consists of two powerful formatters:

- **pydocfmt**: Formats Python docstrings with support for Google-style docstrings
- **pycommentfmt**: Formats Python comments to ensure proper line length and readability

---

## Key Features

### pydocfmt
- **Google-style docstring formatting**: Complete support for Google docstring conventions
- **Multi-line summary handling**: Intelligently formats long summaries that span multiple lines
- **Smart section parsing**: Properly handles Args, Returns, Raises, Examples, and other sections
- **Code block preservation**: Maintains formatting within Examples sections with automatic fencing
- **Type annotation support**: Handles parameter type annotations gracefully
- **Blank line management**: Ensures proper spacing between summary, description, and sections

### pycommentfmt
- **Intelligent comment wrapping**: Respects line length while preserving meaning
- **Inline vs block comment handling**: Different formatting strategies for different comment types
- **Special comment preservation**: Maintains pylint, mypy, and other tool directives
- **Smart spacing**: Ensures consistent spacing between code and comments

## Installation

Install pyformatter via pip:

```bash
pip install python-doc-formatter
```

Or install from source:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/RikGhosh487/pyformatter.git
cd pyformatter
pip install -e .
```

---

## Quick Start

Format all Python files in your project:

```bash
# Format docstrings
pydocfmt src/

# Format comments  
pycommentfmt src/

# Check formatting without making changes
pydocfmt --check src/
pycommentfmt --check src/
```

---

## Command Line Usage

### pydocfmt

Format Python docstrings with intelligent Google-style docstring support.

```bash
pydocfmt [OPTIONS] [FILES/DIRECTORIES]
```

**Options:**
- `--line-length INTEGER`: Maximum line length for docstrings (default: 88)
- `--check`: Check if files are formatted correctly without modifying them
- `--include TEXT`: Regex pattern for files to include
- `--exclude TEXT`: Regex pattern for files to exclude
- `--help`: Show help message and exit

**Examples:**
```bash
# Format specific files
pydocfmt myfile.py another_file.py

# Format entire directory
pydocfmt src/

# Check formatting without changes
pydocfmt --check src/

# Custom line length
pydocfmt --line-length 100 src/

# Include/exclude patterns
pydocfmt --include ".*\.py$" --exclude "test_.*\.py$" src/
```

### pycommentfmt

Format Python comments to ensure proper line length and readability.

```bash
pycommentfmt [OPTIONS] [FILES/DIRECTORIES]
```

**Options:**
- `--line-length INTEGER`: Maximum line length for comments (default: 88)
- `--check`: Check if files are formatted correctly without modifying them
- `--include TEXT`: Regex pattern for files to include
- `--exclude TEXT`: Regex pattern for files to exclude
- `--help`: Show help message and exit

**Examples:**
```bash
# Format specific files
pycommentfmt myfile.py

# Format entire directory
pycommentfmt src/

# Check formatting without changes
pycommentfmt --check src/

# Custom line length
pycommentfmt --line-length 79 src/
```

---

## Configuration

pyformatter can be configured via `pyproject.toml`:

```toml
[tool.pydocfmt]
line_length = 88
exclude = '(^tests/data/|build/)'

[tool.pycommentfmt]
line_length = 88
exclude = '(^tests/data/|build/)'
```

**Configuration Options:**
- `line_length`: Maximum line length (default: 88)
- `exclude`: Regex pattern for files/directories to exclude

---

## Examples

### Before and After: pydocfmt

**Before:**
```python
def calculate_mean(numbers):
    """Calculate the arithmetic mean of a list of numbers.
    
    This function calculates the arithmetic mean of a list of numbers and returns the result as a float value."""
    return sum(numbers) / len(numbers)
```

**After:**
```python
def calculate_mean(numbers):
    """Calculate the arithmetic mean of a list of numbers.
    
    This function calculates the arithmetic mean of a list of numbers and returns the
    result as a float value.
    """
    return sum(numbers) / len(numbers)
```

### Before and After: pycommentfmt

**Before:**
```python
# This is a very long comment that exceeds the line length limit and should be wrapped to multiple lines for better readability
x = 42
```

**After:**
```python
# This is a very long comment that exceeds the line length limit and should be
# wrapped to multiple lines for better readability
x = 42
```

## Integration

### Pre-commit

Add pyformatter to your `.pre-commit-config.yaml`:

```yaml
repos:
  - repo: https://github.com/RikGhosh487/pyformatter
    rev: v0.1.0  # Use the ref you want to point at
    hooks:
      - id: pydocfmt
        args: [--line-length=88]
      - id: pycommentfmt
        args: [--line-length=88]
```

**Available hooks:**
- `pydocfmt`: Format docstrings (modifies files)
- `pydocfmt-check`: Check docstring formatting (read-only)
- `pycommentfmt`: Format comments (modifies files)
- `pycommentfmt-check`: Check comment formatting (read-only)

**Common configurations:**
```yaml
# Basic usage
- id: pydocfmt
- id: pycommentfmt

# Custom line length
- id: pydocfmt
  args: [--line-length=100]

# Check only (for CI)
- id: pydocfmt-check
- id: pycommentfmt-check

# With file exclusions
- id: pydocfmt
  args: [--exclude=tests/.*]
```

### Editor Integration

pyformatter works great with:
- **VS Code**: Use with the Python extension
- **PyCharm**: Configure as an external tool
- **Vim/Neovim**: Integrate with formatting plugins

---
