Max-line-length is ignored, has no effect
The docs for E501 specify "Try to make lines fit within --max-line-length characters."
Therefore, if I wanted to use autopep8 to only reformat line length, I would presumably run:
autopep8 --max-line-length <length> --in-place --recursive --select=E501 somefile.py
However, I'm finding this command has no effect. On a file with code in excess of 100 columns, running:
autopep8 --max-line-length 80 --in-place --recursive --select=E501 somefile.py
does not modify the file in any way, when I would expect it to reformat code into continuations and wrap docstrings and comments.
I'm running autopep8 1.4.4 with Python 3.7.3.
I'm also seeing no effect, even with the any number of -a options. Even if I try running this on the sample code in the readme, line length is not being corrected.
autopep8 1.5.4 (pycodestyle: 2.6.0)
splits lines with autopep8 --in-place address_imported_cities.py -a --jobs 0 and autopep8 --in-place address_imported_cities.py -aa --jobs 0 commands.
Both are not working as I would expect (I will file issue if PEP8 agrees with me), but there is some effect.
@chrisspen Can you present code that is not processed properly?
2 april 2021: autopep8-1.5.6 pycodestyle-2.7.0 still not working with --max-line-length.
@matkoniecz this one:
from app.module.long.name import function_one, function_two, function_with_long_name, function_for_test
def my_super_test_function(argument: str, test_passed: bool, so_long_string_for_test_purposes: str):
print('hello world')
command: autopep8 --max-line-length 80 --diff test.py
Here's another one:
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ autopep8 --version
autopep8 1.5.7 (pycodestyle: 2.7.0)
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ cat test.py
def foo():
print("way too long string should be split")
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ autopep8 test.py
def foo():
print("way too long string should be split")
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ autopep8 -a test.py
def foo():
print("way too long string should be split")
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ autopep8 -aa test.py
def foo():
print("way too long string should be split")
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ autopep8 -aaa test.py
def foo():
print("way too long string should be split")
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$ autopep8 -aaa --experimental test.py
def foo():
print("way too long string should be split")
(env) gmc@sunra:~/tmp$
