How to contribute

We welcome contributions from external contributors, and this document describes how to merge code changes into this opt_einsum.

Getting Started

  • Make sure you have a GitHub account.
  • Fork this repository on GitHub.
  • On your local machine, clone your fork of the repository.

Making Changes

  • Add some really awesome code to your local fork. It's usually a good idea to make changes on a branch with the branch name relating to the feature you are going to add.
  • When you are ready for others to examine and comment on your new feature, navigate to your fork of opt_einsum on GitHub and open a pull request (PR). Note that after you launch a PR from one of your fork's branches, all subsequent commits to that branch will be added to the open pull request automatically. Each commit added to the PR will be validated for mergability, compilation and test suite compliance; the results of these tests will be visible on the PR page.
  • If you're providing a new feature, you must add test cases and documentation.
  • When the code is ready to go, make sure you run the test suite using pytest.
  • When you're ready to be considered for merging, check the "Ready to go" box on the PR page to let the opt_einsum devs know that the changes are complete. The code will not be merged until this box is checked, the continuous integration returns checkmarks, and multiple core developers give "Approved" reviews.

Code of Conduct

Our Pledge

In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

Our Standards

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment include:

  • Using welcoming and inclusive language
  • Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
  • Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
  • Focusing on what is best for the community
  • Showing empathy towards other community members

Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:

  • The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or advances
  • Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
  • Public or private harassment
  • Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic address, without explicit permission
  • Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting

Our Responsibilities

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.

Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.

Scope

This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.

Enforcement

Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be reported by contacting the project team at [dgasmith@vt.edu]. All complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident. Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.

Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other members of the project's leadership.
