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/n8henrie/jupyter-black/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" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Implement Features

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "feature" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation

jupyter-black could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official jupyter-black 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/n8henrie/jupyter-black/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 jupyter-black for local development.

  1. Fork the jupyter-black repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

     $ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/jupyter-black.git
     $ cd jupyter-black
    
  3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv (venv in modern python). Some linux distributions will require you to install python-venv or python3-venv, other times it will already be bundled with python. There are many ways to skin a cat, but this is how I usually set up a fork for local development:

    $ python3 -m venv .venv # set up hidden virtualenv folder: .venv
    $ source ./.venv/bin/actiate # activate virtualenv
    $ which python
    /Users/me/jupyter-black/.venv/bin/python
    $ python -m pip install -e .[test,dev] # editable install with dev deps
    
  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 any existing tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:

     $ 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 against my master branch.

Pull Request Guidelines

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

  1. If the change is not extremely trivial, please start an issue for discussion before you do any work.
  2. The pull request should include tests if I am using tests in the repo.
  3. 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.md
  4. The pull request should generally work for the most recent version of Python3. If I have included CI file such as .travis.yml or .github/workflows/*.yml in the repo, ensure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.

Tips
