Contributing

Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.

You can contribute in many ways:

Types of Contributions

Report Bugs

Report bugs at https://github.com/AbsaOSS/py2k/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.

Fix Bugs

Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Implement Features

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "enhancement" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation

py2k could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official py2k docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.

Submit Feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/AbsaOSS/py2k/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 :)

Get Started

Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up py2k for local development.

  1. Fork the py2k repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally

    > git clone https://github.com/AbsaOSS/py2k.git

  3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development

    > mkvirtualenv py2k
> cd py2k/
> python setup.py develop

  4. Create a branch for local development

    > git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

    Now you can make your changes locally.

  5. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox

    > flake8 py2k tests
> python setup.py test or pytest
> tox

    To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

  6. Commit your changes and 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

  7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

  1. The pull request should include tests.
  2. 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.
  3. The pull request should work for Python 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8, and for PyPy.

Tips

To run a subset of tests

> pytest tests.test_creators

Deploying

A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy. Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in HISTORY.md). Then run

> bump2version patch # possible: major / minor / patch
> git push
> git push --tags

Bumping versions

We are using bump2version to bump versions of this package. The format of the versions are aligned to software engineering:

{major}.{minor}.{patch}-{release}{build}

So this would look like: 1.6.0-rc1 for our first release candidate.

to bump any part of the version you run:

> bump2version minor
# or
> bump2version build
# or any of the above key words

For more information please see the bump2version Github
