Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.
We would appreciate a feature suggestion issue before you create a PR so we can discuss the feature, its use, and its implementation.
You can contribute in many ways:
Report bugs at https://github.com/hpi-dhc/jointly/issues.
If you are reporting a bug, please include:
- Your operating system name and version.
- Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.
- Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.
Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "enhancement" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
jointly could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official jointly docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/hpi-dhc/jointly/issues.
If you are proposing a feature:
- Explain in detail how it would work.
- Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
- Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :)
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up jointly for local development.
Fork the jointly repo on GitHub.
Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone [email protected]:your_name_here/jointly.git
Install all dependencies after installing poetry <https://python-poetry.org/docs/>:
$ cd jointly/ $ poetry install $ pre-commit install
Create a branch for local development:
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the tests and linters and that the docs can be built:
$ py.test $ pre-commit run --all-files $ cd docs && make html
Commit your changes and then push your branch to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
- The pull request should work for Python 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9, and for PyPi. This will be verified within the PR.
To run a subset of tests:
$ py.test tests/test_examples.py
To run all tests:
$ py.test
A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy.
Make sure all your changes are committed, including an entry in HISTORY.rst and an update of the old version code
in docs/conf.py
and pyproject.toml
.
Please also link the PR in your history entry.
GitHub will then deploy to PyPI if tests pass.
