Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up `hydroshoot` for local development.
1. Fork the `hydroshoot` repo on GitHub.
2. Clone your fork locally::
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/hydroshoot.git
3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenv_
installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development::
$ virtualenv dvlpt
$ dvlpt/script/activate
(dvlpt)$ python setup.py develop
4. Create a branch for local development (wip stands for work in progress)::
(dvlpt)$ git checkout -b wip_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 flake8 and the
tests, including testing other Python versions with tox::
(dvlpt)$ cd hydroshoot
(dvlpt) hydroshoot$ flake8
(dvlpt) hydroshoot$ pytest
(dvlpt) hydroshoot$ 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 wip_name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
7. 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.rst.
3. The pull request should work for Python 3.8 and up. Check
https://github.com/openalea/hydroshoot/actions
and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.
