Behind the scenes

How are identified applicable files

File extensions: .smk
File names (regex): Snakefile

How the linting is performed

snakefmt is called one time by identified file

Example calls

Usage: snakefmt [OPTIONS] [SRC]...

  The uncompromising Snakemake code formatter.

  SRC specifies directories and files to format. Directories will be searched
  for file names that conform to the include/exclude patterns provided.

  Files are modified in-place by default; use diff, check, or  `snakefmt - <
  Snakefile` to avoid this.

Options:
  -l, --line-length INT  Lines longer than INT will be wrapped. [default: 88]
  --check                Don't write the files back, just return the status.
                         Return code 0 means nothing would change. Return code
                         1 means some files would be reformatted. Return code
                         123 means there was an error.
  -d, --diff             Don't write the files back, just output a diff for
                         each file to stdout.
  --compact-diff         Same as --diff but only shows lines that would change
                         plus a few lines of context.
  --include PATTERN      A regular expression that matches files and
                         directories that should be included on recursive
                         searches.  An empty value means all files are
                         included regardless of the name.  Use forward slashes
                         for directories on all platforms (Windows, too).
                         Exclusions are calculated first, inclusions later.
                         [default: (\.smk$|^Snakefile)]
  --exclude PATTERN      A regular expression that matches files and
                         directories that should be excluded on recursive
                         searches.  An empty value means no paths are
                         excluded. Use forward slashes for directories on all
                         platforms (Windows, too). Exclusions are calculated
                         first, inclusions later.  [default: (\.snakemake|\.eg
                         gs|\.git|\.hg|\.mypy_cache|\.nox|\.tox|\.venv|\.svn|_
                         build|buck-out|build|dist)]
  -c, --config PATH      Read configuration from PATH. By default, will try to
                         read from `./pyproject.toml`
  -h, --help             Show this message and exit.
  -V, --version          Show the version and exit.
  -v, --verbose          Turns on debug-level logger.
