autopep8 automatically formats Python code to conform to the PEP 8 style guide. It uses the pep8 utility to determine what parts of the code needs to be formatted. autopep8 is capable of fixing most of the formatting issues that can be reported by pep8.
from pip:
pip install --upgrade autopep8
from easy_install:
easy_install -ZU autopep8
autopep8 requires pep8 (>= 1.3.2). Older versions of pep8 will also work, but autopep8 will run pep8 in a subprocess in that case (for compatibility purposes).

Usage: autopep8 [options] [filename [filename ...]]
A tool that automatically formats Python code to conform to the PEP 8 style
guide.
Options:
--version show program's version number and exit
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose print verbose messages; multiple -v result in more
verbose messages
-d, --diff print the diff for the fixed source
-i, --in-place make changes to files in place
-r, --recursive run recursively; must be used with --in-place or
--diff
-p PEP8_PASSES, --pep8-passes=PEP8_PASSES
maximum number of additional pep8 passes (default:
100)
--ignore=IGNORE do not fix these errors/warnings (e.g. E4,W)
--select=SELECT fix only these errors/warnings (e.g. E4,W)

Test cases are in test/test_autopep8.py. They can be run directly via
python test/test_autopep8.py or via tox. The latter is useful for
testing against multiple Python interpreters.
Broad spectrum testing is available via test/acid.py. This script runs
autopep8 against Python code and checks for correctness and completeness of
the code fix transformations. test/acid_pypi.py makes use of
acid.py to test against the latest released packages on PyPi. In a similar
fashion, test/acid_github.py tests against Python code in Github
repositories.
