## Get Started!

Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up `octodns-netbox` for local development.

1. Fork the `octodns-netbox` repo on GitHub.
2. Clone your fork locally

```
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/octodns-netbox.git
```

3. Ensure [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/docs/) is installed.
4. Install dependencies and start your virtualenv:

```
$ poetry install
```

5. Create a branch for local development:

```
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
```

   Now you can make your changes locally.

6. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the
   tests, including testing other Python versions, with tox:

```
$ tox
```

7. Set up pre-commit hooks for automatic code formatting and linting:

```
$ pre-commit install
```

8. 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
```

9. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

## Pull Request Guidelines

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

1. The pull request should include tests.
2. 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.
3. The pull request should work for Python 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 and 3.10. Check
   https://github.com/mochipon/octodns-netbox/actions
   and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.

## Tips

To run a subset of tests:

```
$ pytest tests
```

To invoke the pre-commit hook manually:

```
$ pre-commit run
```
