You can contribute in many ways:

Types of Contributions

Report Bugs

Report bugs at https://github.com/aluttik/kitsune/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

kitsune could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official kitsune 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/aluttik/kitsune/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 kitsune for local development.

  1. Fork the kitsune repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/kitsune.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, check that your changes pass style and unit tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:

    tox

    To get tox, just pip install it.

  5. Before commiting your changes make sure that they comply with the code style guidelines by running black:

    black

    To get black, just pip install it.

  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.

Pull Request Guidelines

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

  1. The pull request should include tests.
  2. Run black to make sure all the code is formatted correctly.
  3. The pull request should work for CPython 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7 and for PyPy. Check https://travis-ci.org/aluttik/kitsune under pull requests for active pull requests or run the tox command and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.

Tips

To run a subset of tests:

tox -e <env> -- tests/<file>[::test]

To run all the test environments in parallel (you need to pip install detox):
