Philosophy
----------
This tool aims to be an *opinionated formatter*, with similar objectives to `black <https://github.com/psf/black>`_.
This means it deliberately does not support a wide variety of configuration settings. In return, you get consistency,
predictability, and smaller diffs.

Use
---

Via ``CLI``
~~~~~~~~~~~

`pyproject-fmt <https://pypi.org/project/pyproject-fmt>`_ is a CLI tool that needs a Python interpreter (version 3.10 or higher) to run. We recommend
either `pipx <https://pypi.org/project/pipx>`_ or `uv <https://pypi.org/project/uv>`_ to install pyproject-fmt into an isolated environment. This has the added benefit that
later you will be able to upgrade pyproject-fmt without affecting other parts of the system. We provide a method for
``pip`` too here, but we discourage that path if you can:


    .. code-block:: bash

        # install uv per https://docs.astral.sh/uv/#getting-started
        uv tool install pyproject-fmt
        pyproject-fmt --help


Via ``pre-commit`` hook
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

See `pre-commit/pre-commit <https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit>`_ for instructions, sample ``.pre-commit-config.yaml``:

.. code-block:: yaml

    - repo: https://github.com/tox-dev/pyproject-fmt
      # Use the sha / tag you want to point at
      # or use `pre-commit autoupdate` to get the latest version
      rev: ""
      hooks:
        - id: pyproject-fmt

Via Python
~~~~~~~~~~

You can use ``pyproject-fmt`` as a Python module to format TOML content programmatically.

.. code-block:: python

    from pyproject_fmt import run

    # Format a pyproject.toml file and return the exit code
    exit_code = run(["path/to/pyproject.toml"])

The ``run`` function accepts command-line arguments as a list and returns an exit code (0 for success, non-zero for
failure).


The ``tool.pyproject-fmt`` table is used when present in the ``pyproject.toml`` file:

.. code-block:: toml

    [tool.pyproject-fmt]

    # After how many columns split arrays/dicts into multiple lines (1 forces always)
    column_width = 120

    # Number of spaces for indentation
    indent = 2

    # Keep full version numbers (e.g., 1.0.0 instead of 1.0) in dependency specifiers
    keep_full_version = false

    # Automatically generate Python version classifiers based on requires-python
    # Set to false to disable automatic classifier generation
    generate_python_version_classifiers = true

    # Maximum Python version for generating version classifiers
    max_supported_python = "3.14"

    # Table format: "short" collapses sub-tables to dotted keys, "long" expands to [table.subtable] headers
    table_format = "short"

    # List of tables to force expand regardless of table_format setting
    expand_tables = []

    # List of tables to force collapse regardless of table_format or expand_tables settings
    collapse_tables = []

If not set they will default to values from the CLI.


Python version classifiers
--------------------------

This tool will automatically generate the ``Programming Language :: Python :: 3.X`` classifiers for you. To do so it
needs to know the range of Python interpreter versions you support:

- The lower bound can be set via the ``requires-python`` key in the ``pyproject.toml`` configuration file (defaults to
  the oldest non end of line CPython at the time of the release).
- The upper bound, by default, will assume the latest stable release of CPython at the time of the release, but can be
  changed via CLI flag or the config file.

Table formatting
----------------

.. note::

    Table formatting options are available in version 2.12.0 and later.

You can control how sub-tables are formatted in your ``pyproject.toml`` file. There are two formatting styles:

**Short format (collapsed)** - The default behavior where sub-tables are collapsed into dotted keys. Use this for a
compact representation:

.. code-block:: toml

    [project]
    name = "myproject"
    urls.homepage = "https://example.com"
    urls.repository = "https://github.com/example/myproject"
    scripts.mycli = "mypackage:main"

**Long format (expanded)** - Sub-tables are expanded into separate ``[table.subtable]`` sections. Use this for
readability when tables have many keys or complex values:

.. code-block:: toml

    [project]
    name = "myproject"

    [project.urls]
    homepage = "https://example.com"
    repository = "https://github.com/example/myproject"

    [project.scripts]
    mycli = "mypackage:main"

Configuration priority
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The formatting behavior is determined by a priority system that allows you to set a global default while overriding
specific tables:

1. **collapse_tables** - Highest priority, forces specific tables to be collapsed regardless of other settings
2. **expand_tables** - Medium priority, forces specific tables to be expanded
3. **table_format** - Lowest priority, sets the default behavior for all tables not explicitly configured

This three-tier approach lets you fine-tune formatting for specific tables while maintaining a consistent default.
For example:

.. code-block:: toml

    [tool.pyproject-fmt]
    table_format = "short"  # Collapse most tables
    expand_tables = ["project.entry-points"]  # But expand entry-points

Specificity rules
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Table selectors follow CSS-like specificity rules: more specific selectors win over less specific ones. When
determining whether to collapse or expand a table, the formatter checks from most specific to least specific until it
finds a match.

For example, with this configuration:

.. code-block:: toml

    [tool.pyproject-fmt]
    table_format = "long"  # Expand all tables by default
    collapse_tables = ["project"]  # Collapse project sub-tables
    expand_tables = ["project.optional-dependencies"]  # But expand this specific one

The behavior will be:

- ``project.urls`` → collapsed (matches ``project`` in collapse_tables)
- ``project.scripts`` → collapsed (matches ``project`` in collapse_tables)
- ``project.optional-dependencies`` → expanded (matches exactly in expand_tables, more specific than ``project``)
- ``tool.ruff.lint`` → expanded (no match in collapse/expand, uses table_format default)

This allows you to set broad rules for parent tables while making exceptions for specific sub-tables. The specificity
check walks up the table hierarchy: for ``project.optional-dependencies``, it first checks if
``project.optional-dependencies`` is in collapse_tables or expand_tables, then checks ``project``, then falls back to
the table_format default.

Supported tables
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The following sub-tables can be formatted with this configuration:

**Project tables:**

- ``project.urls`` - Project URLs (homepage, repository, documentation, changelog)
- ``project.scripts`` - Console script entry points
- ``project.gui-scripts`` - GUI script entry points
- ``project.entry-points`` - Custom entry point groups
- ``project.optional-dependencies`` - Optional dependency groups

**Tool tables:**

- ``tool.ruff.format`` - Ruff formatter settings
- ``tool.ruff.lint`` - Ruff linter settings
- Any other tool sub-tables

**Array of tables:**

- ``project.authors`` - Can be inline tables or ``[[project.authors]]``
- ``project.maintainers`` - Can be inline tables or ``[[project.maintainers]]``
- Any ``[[table]]`` entries throughout the file

Array of tables (``[[table]]``) are automatically collapsed to inline arrays when each inline table fits within the
configured ``column_width``. For example:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    [[tool.commitizen.customize.questions]]
    type = "list"

    [[tool.commitizen.customize.questions]]
    type = "input"

    # After (with table_format = "short")
    [tool.commitizen]
    customize.questions = [{ type = "list" }, { type = "input" }]

If any inline table exceeds ``column_width``, the array of tables remains in ``[[...]]`` format to maintain
readability and TOML 1.0.0 compatibility (inline tables cannot span multiple lines).

``pyproject-fmt`` is an opinionated formatter, much like `black <https://github.com/psf/black>`_ is for Python code.
The tool intentionally provides minimal configuration options because the goal is to establish a single standard format
that all ``pyproject.toml`` files follow.

**Benefits of this approach:**

- Less time configuring tools
- Smaller diffs when committing changes
- Easier code reviews since formatting is never a question

While a few key options exist (``column_width``, ``indent``, ``table_format``), the tool does not expose dozens of
toggles. You get what the maintainers have chosen to be the right balance of readability, consistency, and usability.

General Formatting
------------------

These rules apply uniformly across the entire ``pyproject.toml`` file.

Table Ordering
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tables are reordered into a consistent structure:

1. ``[build-system]``
2. ``[project]``
3. ``[dependency-groups]``
4. ``[tool.*]`` sections in the order:

   1. Build backends: ``poetry``, ``poetry-dynamic-versioning``, ``pdm``, ``setuptools``, ``distutils``,
      ``setuptools_scm``, ``hatch``, ``flit``, ``scikit-build``, ``meson-python``, ``maturin``, ``whey``,
      ``py-build-cmake``, ``sphinx-theme-builder``, ``uv``
   2. Builders: ``cibuildwheel``, ``nuitka``
   3. Linters/formatters: ``autopep8``, ``black``, ``ruff``, ``isort``, ``flake8``, ``pycln``, ``nbqa``,
      ``pylint``, ``repo-review``, ``codespell``, ``docformatter``, ``pydoclint``, ``tomlsort``,
      ``check-manifest``, ``check-sdist``, ``check-wheel-contents``, ``deptry``, ``pyproject-fmt``, ``typos``
   4. Testing: ``pytest``, ``pytest_env``, ``pytest-enabler``, ``coverage``
   5. Task runners: ``doit``, ``spin``, ``tox``
   6. Release tools: ``bumpversion``, ``jupyter-releaser``, ``tbump``, ``towncrier``, ``vendoring``
   7. Type checkers: ``mypy``, ``pyrefly``, ``pyright``, ``ty``, ``django-stubs``
   8. Any other ``tool.*`` in alphabetical order

5. Any other tables (alphabetically)

String Quotes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All strings use double quotes by default. Single quotes are only used when the value contains double quotes:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    name = 'my-package'
    description = "He said \"hello\""

    # After
    name = "my-package"
    description = 'He said "hello"'

Array Formatting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Arrays are formatted based on line length, trailing comma presence, and comments:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Short arrays stay on one line
    keywords = ["python", "toml"]

    # Long arrays that exceed column_width are expanded and get a trailing comma
    dependencies = [
        "requests>=2.28",
        "click>=8.0",
    ]

    # Trailing commas signal intent to keep multiline format
    classifiers = [
        "Development Status :: 4 - Beta",
    ]

    # Arrays with comments are always multiline
    lint.ignore = [
        "E501",  # Line too long
        "E701",
    ]

**Multiline formatting rules:**

An array becomes multiline when any of these conditions are met:

1. **Trailing comma present** - A trailing comma signals intent to keep multiline format
2. **Exceeds column width** - Arrays longer than ``column_width`` are expanded (and get a trailing comma added)
3. **Contains comments** - Arrays with inline or leading comments are always multiline

Table Formatting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sub-tables can be formatted in two styles controlled by ``table_format``:

**Short format** (collapsed to dotted keys):

.. code-block:: toml

    [project]
    urls.homepage = "https://example.com"
    urls.repository = "https://github.com/example/project"

**Long format** (expanded to table headers):

.. code-block:: toml

    [project.urls]
    homepage = "https://example.com"
    repository = "https://github.com/example/project"


Comment Preservation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All comments are preserved during formatting:

- **Inline comments** - Comments after a value on the same line stay with that value
- **Leading comments** - Comments on the line before an entry stay with the entry below
- **Block comments** - Multi-line comment blocks are preserved

**Inline comment alignment:**

Inline comments within arrays are aligned independently per array, based on that array's longest value:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before - comments at inconsistent positions
    lint.ignore = [
      "COM812", # Conflict with formatter
      "CPY", # No copyright statements
      "ISC001",   # Another rule
    ]

    # After - comments align to longest value in this array
    lint.ignore = [
      "COM812",  # Conflict with formatter
      "CPY",     # No copyright statements
      "ISC001",  # Another rule
    ]

Table-Specific Handling
-----------------------

Beyond general formatting, each table has specific key ordering and value normalization rules.

``[build-system]``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Key ordering:** ``build-backend`` → ``requires`` → ``backend-path``

**Value normalization:**

- ``requires``: Dependencies normalized per PEP 508 and sorted alphabetically by package name
- ``backend-path``: Entries sorted alphabetically

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    [build-system]
    requires = ["setuptools >= 45", "wheel"]
    build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"

    # After
    [build-system]
    build-backend = "setuptools.build_meta"
    requires = ["setuptools>=45", "wheel"]

``[project]``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Key ordering:**

Keys are reordered in this sequence: ``name`` → ``version`` → ``import-names`` → ``import-namespaces`` →
``description`` → ``readme`` → ``keywords`` → ``license`` → ``license-files`` → ``maintainers`` → ``authors`` →
``requires-python`` → ``classifiers`` → ``dynamic`` → ``dependencies`` → ``optional-dependencies`` → ``urls`` →
``scripts`` → ``gui-scripts`` → ``entry-points``

**Field normalizations:**

``name``
    Converted to canonical format (lowercase with hyphens): ``My_Package`` → ``my-package``

``description``
    Whitespace normalized: multiple spaces collapsed, consistent spacing after periods.

``license``
    License expression operators (``and``, ``or``, ``with``) uppercased: ``MIT or Apache-2.0`` → ``MIT OR Apache-2.0``

``requires-python``
    Whitespace removed: ``>= 3.9`` → ``>=3.9``

``keywords``
    Deduplicated (case-insensitive) and sorted alphabetically.

``dynamic``
    Sorted alphabetically.

``import-names`` / ``import-namespaces``
    Semicolon spacing normalized (``foo;bar`` → ``foo; bar``), entries sorted alphabetically.

``classifiers``
    Deduplicated and sorted alphabetically.

``authors`` / ``maintainers``
    Sorted by name, then email. Keys within each entry ordered: ``name`` → ``email``.

**Dependency normalization:**

All dependency arrays (``dependencies``, ``optional-dependencies.*``) are:

- Normalized per PEP 508: spaces removed, redundant ``.0`` suffixes stripped (unless ``keep_full_version = true``)
- Sorted alphabetically by canonical package name

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    dependencies = ["requests >= 2.0.0", "click~=8.0"]

    # After
    dependencies = ["click>=8", "requests>=2"]

**Optional dependencies extra names:**

Extra names are normalized to lowercase with hyphens:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    [project.optional-dependencies]
    Dev_Tools = ["pytest"]

    # After
    [project.optional-dependencies]
    dev-tools = ["pytest"]

**Python version classifiers:**

Classifiers for Python versions are automatically generated based on ``requires-python`` and
``max_supported_python``. Disable with ``generate_python_version_classifiers = false``.

.. code-block:: toml

    # With requires-python = ">=3.10" and max_supported_python = "3.14"
    classifiers = [
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3 :: Only",
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.10",
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.11",
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.12",
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.13",
        "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.14",
    ]

**Entry points:**

Inline tables within ``entry-points`` are expanded to dotted keys:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    entry-points.console_scripts = { mycli = "mypackage:main" }

    # After
    entry-points.console_scripts.mycli = "mypackage:main"

**Authors/maintainers formatting:**

Contact information can be formatted as inline tables or expanded array of tables:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Short format (inline)
    authors = [{ name = "Alice", email = "alice@example.com" }]

    # Long format (array of tables)
    [[project.authors]]
    name = "Alice"
    email = "alice@example.com"

Controlled by ``table_format``, ``expand_tables``, and ``collapse_tables``.

``[dependency-groups]``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Key ordering:** ``dev`` → ``test`` → ``type`` → ``docs`` → others alphabetically

**Value normalization:**

- All dependencies normalized per PEP 508
- Sorted: regular dependencies first, then ``include-group`` entries

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    [dependency-groups]
    dev = [{ include-group = "test" }, "ruff>=0.4", "mypy>=1"]

    # After
    [dependency-groups]
    dev = ["mypy>=1", "ruff>=0.4", { include-group = "test" }]

``[tool.ruff]``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Key ordering:**

Keys are reordered in a logical sequence:

1. Global settings: ``required-version`` → ``extend`` → ``target-version`` → ``line-length`` → ``indent-width`` →
   ``tab-size``
2. Path settings: ``builtins`` → ``namespace-packages`` → ``src`` → ``include`` → ``extend-include`` → ``exclude`` →
   ``extend-exclude`` → ``force-exclude`` → ``respect-gitignore``
3. Behavior flags: ``preview`` → ``fix`` → ``unsafe-fixes`` → ``fix-only`` → ``show-fixes`` → ``show-source``
4. Output settings: ``output-format`` → ``cache-dir``
5. ``format.*`` keys
6. ``lint.*`` keys: ``select`` → ``extend-select`` → ``ignore`` → ``extend-ignore`` → ``per-file-ignores`` →
   ``fixable`` → ``unfixable`` → plugin configurations

**Sorted arrays:**

Arrays are sorted alphabetically using natural ordering (``RUF1`` < ``RUF9`` < ``RUF10``):

.. code-block:: toml

    # These arrays are sorted:
    lint.select = ["E", "F", "I", "RUF"]
    lint.ignore = ["E501", "E701"]

    # Per-file-ignores values are also sorted:
    lint.per-file-ignores."tests/*.py" = ["D103", "S101"]

**Sorted array keys:**

Top-level:
  ``exclude``, ``extend-exclude``, ``include``, ``extend-include``, ``builtins``, ``namespace-packages``, ``src``

Format:
  ``format.exclude``

Lint:
  ``select``, ``extend-select``, ``ignore``, ``extend-ignore``, ``fixable``, ``extend-fixable``, ``unfixable``,
  ``extend-safe-fixes``, ``extend-unsafe-fixes``, ``external``, ``task-tags``, ``exclude``, ``typing-modules``,
  ``allowed-confusables``, ``logger-objects``

**Sources table:**

The ``sources`` table entries are sorted alphabetically by package name:

.. code-block:: toml

    # Before
    [tool.uv.sources]
    zebra = { git = "..." }
    alpha = { path = "..." }

    # After
    [tool.uv.sources]
    alpha = { path = "..." }
    zebra = { git = "..." }

**pip subsection:**

The ``[tool.uv.pip]`` subsection follows similar formatting rules, with arrays like ``extra``, ``no-binary-package``,
``no-build-package``, ``reinstall-package``, and ``upgrade-package`` sorted alphabetically.
