Contributing¶
Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.
Get Started!¶
Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up datastep
for local development.
Fork the
datastep
repo on GitHub.Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:{your_name_here}/datastep.git
Install the project in editable mode. (It is also recommended to work in a virtualenv or anaconda environment):
$ cd datastep/
$ pip install -e .[dev]
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
Now you can make your changes locally.
When you’re done making changes, check that your changes pass linting and tests, including testing other Python versions with make:
$ make build
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
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
Make and merge a PR to branch stable
and GitHub will then deploy to PyPI once
merged.
