Consider respecting avoid-escape when enforcing other flake8-quotes rules

[BT-rmartin]

My Ruff version is 0.0.292
My configuration of Ruff is

[tool.ruff]
select = ["E", "F", "I", "PL", "B", "Q", "D", "N", "S", "G", "RUF", "W"]
ignore = ["D100", "D101", "D104", "D213", "D203", "RUF012"]
exclude = ["**/ext/"]

line-length = 115

[tool.ruff.per-file-ignores]
"__init__.py" = ["F401"]
"__manifest__.py" = ["B018"]
"**/tests/*.py" = ["S101"]

[tool.ruff.flake8-quotes]
docstring-quotes = "double"
inline-quotes = "single"
multiline-quotes = "double"
avoid-escape = false

I had a file like this

{
    "name": "My module",
    "version": "16.0.1.0.0",
    "summary": "Strips newline from text's fields",
    "category": "Accounting",
    "installable": True,
}

When running ruff . --fix, it produces a file like this, which is mixing up single quote and double quote in the summary key due to the apostrophe it had there

{
    'name': 'My module',
    'version': '16.0.1.0.0',
    'summary': "Strips newline from text's fields",
    'category': 'Accounting',
    'installable': True,
}

I would expect that it's able to escape the apostrophe as I have avoid-escape = false.
Could you please tell me what is wrong here?

Anothe working option for me would be to ignore the flake8-quotes for specific files. Is that possible?

Thanks in advance

I think this is a bug because we aren't respecting avoid-escape = false in all of the Q rules.

[BT-rmartin]

@charliermarsh Thanks for the quick answer.
When do you estimate this might be fixed?

[charliermarsh]

I would guess in the next week or two?

I think this is a bug because we aren't respecting avoid-escape = false in all of the Q rules.

That's true although flake8-quotes has the same behavior:

flake8 t.py --no-avoid-escape  

Maybe related #2400

@charliermarsh Any progress on this topic?

[dhruvmanila]

I'm sorry there hasn't been any progress here but we might want to hold off until #7927 is finalized and merged as that could simplify the implementation of flake8-quotes rules.

[BT-rmartin]

Ok thanks @dhruvmanila. When do you estimate this could be done?

[BT-rmartin]

hi @dhruvmanila, @charliermarsh When do you estimate this might be fixed?

@BT-rmartin please do not bump issues repeatedly. #7927 is still in-progress. Updates will be posted here when progress is made on this issue.
