Is there a way/extension to exclude certain line(s) from "Format On Save" in Visual Studio Code?

Question:

I am working on a Python project where the Formatting is set to Autopep8. Is there any extension or possible settings where can define to exclude a certain line(s) from formatting when VS is set to format modified code/file on save or with keyboard shortcuts?

Answers:

Add the comment # noqa to the end of each line you want VS Code to leave alone. For instance, to prevent VS Code from changing

RED     = 0
YELLOW  = 1

to

RED = 0
YELLOW = 1

just do the following:

RED     = 0  # noqa
YELLOW  = 1  # noqa

You can take:

# autopep8: off
# autopep8: on

or

# fmt: off
# fmt: on

Multiple lines:

For black and autopep8:

# fmt: off
RED     = 0
YELLOW  = 1
# fmt: on

For black and yapf:

# yapf: disable
RED     = 0
YELLOW  = 1
# yapf: enable

For autopep8:

# autopep8: off
RED     = 0
YELLOW  = 1
# autopep8: on

One line:

For black:

BLUE    = 0  # fmt: skip

For yapf:

BLUE    = 0  # yapf: disable
