Contributor Guide

Thank you for your interest in improving this project. This project is open-source under the MIT license and welcomes contributions in the form of bug reports, feature requests, and pull requests.

Here is a list of important resources for contributors:

How to report a bug

Report bugs on the Issue Tracker.

When filing an issue, make sure to answer these questions:

  • Which operating system and Python version are you using?
  • Which version of this project are you using?
  • What did you do?
  • What did you expect to see?
  • What did you see instead?

The best way to get your bug fixed is to provide a test case, and/or steps to reproduce the issue.

How to request a feature

How to set up your development environment

Linux

You need Python 3.8+ and the following tools:

Install the package with development requirements:

$ poetry install

You can now run an interactive Python session:

$ python
>>> import mapstp

Or the command-line interface:

$ mapstp --help

Windows

.. todo::   Add installation and development scripts.

How to test the project

Run pytest for quick tests in development process:

$ pytest

Run the full test suite including code quality verification and isolated tests:

$ nox

List the available Nox sessions:

$ nox --list-sessions

You can also run a specific Nox session. For example, invoke the unit test suite like this:

$ nox --session=tests

Unit tests are located in the tests directory, and are written using the pytest testing framework.

How to submit changes

Open a pull request to submit changes to this project.

Your pull request needs to meet the following guidelines for acceptance:

  • The Nox test suite must pass without errors and warnings.
  • Include unit tests. This project maintains 100% code coverage.
  • If your changes add functionality, update the documentation accordingly.
.. todo::    Make sure 100% coverage is achieved.

Feel free to submit early, though—we can always iterate on this.

To run linting and code formatting checks before committing your change, you can install pre-commit as a Git hook by running the following command:

$ nox --session=pre-commit -- install

It is recommended to open an issue before starting work on anything. This will allow a chance to talk it over with the owners and validate your approach.
