Run on a file or directory

See original GitHub issue

Thanks for this handy tool!

It would be nice to be able to run pyupgrade on a directory, and have it process all .py files in that directory and subdirectories.

For example:

pyupgrade .

This would be similar to other tools like Flake8 and Black.

In the meantime, this works:

pyupgrade `find . -name "*.py"`

@asottile - thank you for this wonderful tool!

I would also find this option useful to pass a folder. Yes, it’s a bit of code to walk the directories, but black has a very good implementation that could be copied.

It’s not obvious to me why one would use pre-commit to upgrade a given codebase. Upgrading is a one-time action, at least that’s how I want to use it. So why make this a pre-commit hook? – @asottile maybe you could clarify a bit at the start of the readme.

Hi @asottile I understand that you are advocating for pre-commit but I believe it would be good to mention the trick with pyupgrade find . -name “*.py” -type f`` in a “Usage” section of the readme as well. What do you think?
