They should not be used for flow control. This is a break from the python norm of &quot;ask for forgiveness.&quot; If you are catching an exception it should be to handle a situation that is unusual.</p><p>If you use a catch-all exception for any reason you must log the exception and stacktrace using cli.log.</p><p>Make your try/except blocks as short as possible. If you need a lot of try statements you may need to restructure your code.</p><h1 id="tuples" tabindex="-1">Tuples <a class="header-anchor" href="#tuples" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Tuples&quot;">​</a></h1><p>When defining one-item tuples always include a trailing comma so that it is obvious you are using a tuple. Do not rely on implicit one-item tuple unpacking. Better still use a list which is unambiguous.</p><p>This is particularly important when using the printf-style format strings that are commonly used.</p><h1 id="lists-and-dictionaries" tabindex="-1">Lists and Dictionaries <a class="header-anchor" href="#lists-and-dictionaries" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Lists and Dictionaries&quot;">​</a></h1><p>We have configured YAPF to differentiate between sequence styles with a trailing comma. When a trailing comma is omitted YAPF will format the sequence as a single line. When a trailing comma is included YAPF will format the sequence with one item per line.</p><p>You should generally prefer to keep short definition on a single line. Break out to multiple lines sooner rather than later to aid readability and maintainability.</p><h1 id="parentheses" tabindex="-1">Parentheses <a class="header-anchor" href="#parentheses" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Parentheses&quot;">​</a></h1><p>Avoid excessive parentheses, but do use parentheses to make code easier to understand. Do not use them in return statements unless you are explicitly returning a tuple, or it is part of a math expression.</p><h1 id="format-strings" tabindex="-1">Format Strings <a class="header-anchor" href="#format-strings" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Format Strings&quot;">​</a></h1><p>We generally prefer printf-style format strings. Example:</p><div class="language- vp-adaptive-theme"><button title="Copy Code" class="copy"></button><span class="lang"></span><pre class="shiki shiki-themes github-light github-dark vp-code"><code><span class="line"><span>name = &#39;World&#39;</span></span>
<span class="line"><span>print(&#39;Hello, %s!&#39; % (name,))</span></span></code></pre></div><p>This style is used by the logging module, which we make use of extensively, and we have adopted it in other places for consistency. It is also more familiar to C programmers, who are a big part of our casual audience.</p><p>Our included CLI module has support for using these without using the percent (%) operator. Look at <code>cli.echo()</code> and the various <code>cli.log</code> functions (EG, <code>cli.log.info()</code>) for more details.</p><h1 id="comprehensions-generator-expressions" tabindex="-1">Comprehensions &amp; Generator Expressions <a class="header-anchor" href="#comprehensions-generator-expressions" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Comprehensions &amp; Generator Expressions&quot;">​</a></h1><p>We encourage the liberal use of comprehensions and generators, but do not let them get too complex. If you need complexity fall back to a for loop that is easier to understand.</p><h1 id="lambdas" tabindex="-1">Lambdas <a class="header-anchor" href="#lambdas" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Lambdas&quot;">​</a></h1><p>OK to use but probably should be avoided. With comprehensions and generators the need for lambdas is not as strong as it once was.</p><h1 id="conditional-expressions" tabindex="-1">Conditional Expressions <a class="header-anchor" href="#conditional-expressions" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Conditional Expressions&quot;">​</a></h1><p>OK in variable assignment, but otherwise should be avoided.</p><p>Conditional expressions are if statements that are in line with code. For example:</p><div class="language- vp-adaptive-theme"><button title="Copy Code" class="copy"></button><span class="lang"></span><pre class="shiki shiki-themes github-light github-dark vp-code"><code><span class="line"><span>x = 1 if cond else 2</span></span></code></pre></div><p>It&#39;s generally not a good idea to use these as function arguments, sequence items, etc. It&#39;s too easy to overlook.</p><h1 id="default-argument-values" tabindex="-1">Default Argument Values <a class="header-anchor" href="#default-argument-values" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Default Argument Values&quot;">​</a></h1><p>Encouraged, but values must be immutable objects.</p><p>When specifying default values in argument lists always be careful to specify objects that can&#39;t be modified in place. If you use a mutable object the changes you make will persist between calls, which is usually not what you want.

We want our codebase to be approachable by someone who only has a day or two to play with it. These features generally come with a cost to easy understanding, and we would prefer to have code that can be readily understood over faster or more compact code.</p><p>Note that some standard library modules use these techniques and it is ok to make use of those modules. But please keep readability and understandability in mind when using them.</p><h1 id="type-annotated-code" tabindex="-1">Type Annotated Code <a class="header-anchor" href="#type-annotated-code" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Type Annotated Code&quot;">​</a></h1><p>For now we are not using any type annotation system, and would prefer that code remain unannotated. We may revisit this in the future.</p><h1 id="function-length" tabindex="-1">Function length <a class="header-anchor" href="#function-length" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Function length&quot;">​</a></h1><p>Prefer small and focused functions.</p><p>We recognize that long functions are sometimes appropriate, so no hard limit is placed on function length. If a function exceeds about 40 lines, think about whether it can be broken up without harming the structure of the program.</p><p>Even if your long function works perfectly now, someone modifying it in a few months may add new behavior. This could result in bugs that are hard to find. Keeping your functions short and simple makes it easier for other people to read and modify your code.</p><p>You could find long and complicated functions when working with some code. Do not be intimidated by modifying existing code: if working with such a function proves to be difficult, you find that errors are hard to debug, or you want to use a piece of it in several different contexts, consider breaking up the function into smaller and more manageable pieces.</p><h1 id="fixmes" tabindex="-1">FIXMEs <a class="header-anchor" href="#fixmes" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;FIXMEs&quot;">​</a></h1><p>It is OK to leave FIXMEs in code.

We use <a href="https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/subprocess.html#module-subprocess" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><code>subprocess</code></a> to launch each CLI command and a combination of checking output and returncode to determine if the right thing happened.</p><h2 id="unit-tests" tabindex="-1">Unit Tests <a class="header-anchor" href="#unit-tests" aria-label="Permalink to &quot;Unit Tests&quot;">​</a></h2><p>The other <code>test_*.py</code> files in <code>lib/python/qmk/tests/</code> contain unit tests.
