Get Started!

Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up aics_dask_utils for local development.

  1. Fork the aics_dask_utils repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    git clone git@github.com:{your_name_here}/aics_dask_utils.git
    
  3. Install the project in editable mode. (It is also recommended to work in a virtualenv or anaconda environment):

    cd aics_dask_utils/
    pip install -e .[dev]
    
  4. Create a branch for local development:

       git checkout -b {your_development_type}/short-description
    
    Ex: feature/read-tiff-files or bugfix/handle-file-not-found\ :raw-html-m2r:`<br>`
    Now you can make your changes locally.
    
  5. When you’re done making changes, check that your changes pass linting and tests, including testing other Python versions with make:

    make build
    
  6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:

    git add .
    git commit -m "Resolves gh-###. Your detailed description of your changes."
    git push origin {your_development_type}/short-description
    
  7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Deploying

A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy. Make sure all your changes are committed. Then run:

$ bumpversion patch # possible: major / minor / patch
$ git push
$ git push --tags
git branch -D stable
git checkout -b stable
git push --set-upstream origin stable -f

This will release a new package version on Git + GitHub and publish to PyPI.
