在 python 3.7 中使用黑色作为预提交钩子

Question

I'm trying to use black on pre-commit, by using this settings:

repos:
-   repo: https://github.com/ambv/black
    rev: stable
    hooks:
    - id: black
      language_version: python3.7

Unfortuntely I get this error: (it doesn't happen if I try to format with python3.6, but I really need the 3.7!)

### version information

```
pre-commit version: 1.21.0
sys.version:
    2.7.15 (default, Jan 12 2019, 21:07:57)

Any ideas on how to solve it?

Answer 1

The error message indicates you do not have python3.7 installed on your machine -- you'll need to install that to use language_version: python3.7

perhaps you intend to use black's --target argument instead?

    -   id: black
        # or configure black in pyproject.toml (probably a better suggestion)
        args: [--target-version, py37]
