A tool to automatically upgrade syntax for newer versions.

Project description

build status pre-commit.ci status

pyupgrade

A tool (and pre-commit hook) to automatically upgrade syntax for newer versions of the language.

Installation

pip install pyupgrade

As a pre-commit hook

See pre-commit for instructions

Sample .pre-commit-config.yaml:

-   repo: https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade
    rev: v3.10.0
    hooks:
    -   id: pyupgrade

Implemented features

Set literals

-set(())
+set()
-set([])
+set()
-set((1,))
+{1}
-set((1, 2))
+{1, 2}
-set([1, 2])
+{1, 2}
-set(x for x in y)
+{x for x in y}
-set([x for x in y])
+{x for x in y}

Dictionary comprehensions

-dict((a, b) for a, b in y)
+{a: b for a, b in y}
-dict([(a, b) for a, b in y])
+{a: b for a, b in y}

Format Specifiers

-'{0} {1}'.format(1, 2)
+'{} {}'.format(1, 2)
-'{0}' '{1}'.format(1, 2)
+'{}' '{}'.format(1, 2)

printf-style string formatting

Availability:

  • Unless --keep-percent-format is passed.
-'%s %s' % (a, b)
+'{} {}'.format(a, b)
-'%r %2f' % (a, b)
+'{!r} {:2f}'.format(a, b)
-'%(a)s %(b)s' % {'a': 1, 'b': 2}
+'{a} {b}'.format(a=1, b=2)

Unicode literals

-u'foo'
+'foo'
-u"foo"
+'foo'
-u'''foo'''
+'''foo'''

Invalid escape sequences

 # strings with only invalid sequences become raw strings
-'\d'
+r'\d'
 # strings with mixed valid / invalid sequences get escaped
-'\n\d'
+'\n\\d'
-u'\d'
+r'\d'
 # this fixes a syntax error in python3.3+
-'\N'
+r'\N'

# note: pyupgrade is timid in one case (that's usually a mistake)
# in python2.x `'\u2603'` is the same as `'\\u2603'` without `unicode_literals`
# but in python3.x, that's our friend ☃

is / is not comparison to constant literals

In python3.8+, comparison to literals becomes a SyntaxWarning as the success of those comparisons is implementation specific (due to common object caching).

-x is 5
+x == 5
-x is not 5
+x != 5
-x is 'foo'
+x == 'foo'

.encode() to bytes literals

-'foo'.encode()
+b'foo'
-'foo'.encode('ascii')
+b'foo'
-'foo'.encode('utf-8')
+b'foo'
-u'foo'.encode()
+b'foo'
-'\xa0'.encode('latin1')
+b'\xa0'

extraneous parens in print(...)

A fix for python-modernize/python-modernize#178

 # ok: printing an empty tuple
 print(())
 # ok: printing a tuple
 print((1,))
 # ok: parenthesized generator argument
 sum((i for i in range(3)), [])
 # fixed:
-print(("foo"))
+print("foo")

unittest deprecated aliases

Rewrites deprecated unittest method aliases to their non-deprecated forms.

 from unittest import TestCase


 class MyTests(TestCase):
     def test_something(self):
-        self.failUnlessEqual(1, 1)
+        self.assertEqual(1, 1)
-        self.assertEquals(1, 1)
+        self.assertEqual(1, 1)

super() calls

 class C(Base):
     def f(self):
-        super(C, self).f()
+        super().f()

"new style" classes

rewrites class declaration

-class C(object): pass
+class C: pass
-class C(B, object): pass
+class C(B): pass

removes __metaclass__ = type declaration

 class C:
-    __metaclass__ = type

forced str("native") literals

-str()
+''
-str("foo")
+"foo"

.encode("utf-8")

-"foo".encode("utf-8")
+"foo".encode()

# coding: ... comment

as of PEP 3120, the default encoding for python source is UTF-8

-# coding: utf-8
 x = 1

__future__ import removal

Availability:

  • by default removes nested_scopes, generators, with_statement, absolute_import, division, print_function, unicode_literals
  • --py37-plus will also remove generator_stop
-from __future__ import with_statement

Remove unnecessary py3-compat imports

-from io import open
-from six.moves import map
-from builtins import object  # python-future

import replacements

Availability:

  • --py36-plus (and others) will replace imports

see also reorder-python-imports

some examples:

-from collections import deque, Mapping
+from collections import deque
+from collections.abc import Mapping
-from typing import Sequence
+from collections.abc import Sequence
-from typing_extensions import Concatenate
+from typing import Concatenate

rewrite mock imports

Availability:

-from mock import patch
+from unittest.mock import patch

yield => yield from

 def f():
-    for x in y:
-        yield x
+    yield from y
-    for a, b in c:
-        yield (a, b)
+    yield from c

Python2 and old Python3.x blocks

 import sys
-if sys.version_info < (3,):  # also understands `six.PY2` (and `not`), `six.PY3` (and `not`)
-    print('py2')
-else:
-    print('py3')
+print('py3')

Availability:

  • --py36-plus will remove Python <= 3.5 only blocks
  • --py37-plus will remove Python <= 3.6 only blocks
  • so on and so forth
 # using --py36-plus for this example

 import sys
-if sys.version_info < (3, 6):
-    print('py3.5')
-else:
-    print('py3.6+')
+print('py3.6+')

-if sys.version_info <= (3, 5):
-    print('py3.5')
-else:
-    print('py3.6+')
+print('py3.6+')

-if sys.version_info >= (3, 6):
-    print('py3.6+')
-else:
-    print('py3.5')
+print('py3.6+')

Note that if blocks without an else will not be rewritten as it could introduce a syntax error.

+class NT(typing.NamedTuple):
+    a: int

Availability:

-'{} {}'.format(f(), g())
+f'{f()} {g()}'
-'{x}'.format(**locals())
