Contributing
============
Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every
little bit helps, and credit will always be given.
Bug reports
===========
When `reporting a bug <https://github.com/reegis/scenario_builder/issues>`_ 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.
Documentation improvements
==========================
scenario_builder could always use more documentation, whether as part of the
official scenario_builder docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts,
articles, and such.
Feature requests and feedback
=============================
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/reegis/scenario_builder/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 code contributions are welcome :)
Development
===========
To set up `scenario_builder` for local development:
1. Fork `scenario_builder <https://github.com/reegis/scenario_builder>`_
(look for the "Fork" button).
2. Clone your fork locally::
git clone git@github.com:YOURGITHUBNAME/scenario_builder.git
3. Create a branch for local development::
git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
4. When you're done making changes run all the checks and docs builder with `tox <https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>`_ one command::
tox
5. 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
6. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Pull Request Guidelines
-----------------------
If you need some code review or feedback while you're developing the code just make the pull request.
For merging, you should:
1. Include passing tests (run ``tox``) [1]_.
2. Update documentation when there's new API, functionality etc.
3. Add a note to ``CHANGELOG.rst`` about the changes.
4. Add yourself to ``AUTHORS.rst``.
.. [1] If you don't have all the necessary python versions available locally you can rely on Travis - it will
`run the tests <https://travis-ci.org/reegis/scenario_builder/pull_requests>`_ for each change you add in the pull request.
It will be slower though ...
Tips
----
To run a subset of tests::
tox -e envname -- pytest -k test_myfeature
To run all the test environments in *parallel*::
tox -p auto
