New contributor guide

To get an overview of the project, read the documentation. Here are some resources to help you get started with open source contributions:

Pull Request Process

Pull Request

  • When you're finished with the changes, create a pull request, also known as a PR. It is also OK to create a draft pull request from the very beginning. Once you are done you can click on the ["Ready for review"] button. You can also request a review from one of the maintainers.
  • Don't forget to link PR to the issue that you opened .
  • Enable the checkbox to allow maintainer edits so the branch can be updated for a merge. Once you submit your PR, a team member will review your proposal. We may ask questions or request for additional information.
  • We may ask for changes to be made before a PR can be merged, either using suggested changes or pull request comments. You can apply suggested changes directly through the UI. You can make any other changes in your fork, then commit them to your branch.
  • As you update your PR and apply changes, mark each conversation as resolved.
  • If you run into any merge issues, checkout this git tutorial to help you resolve merge conflicts and other issues.
  • Please make sure that all tests are passing, github pages renders nicely, and code coverage are are not lower than before your contribution. You see the different github action workflows by clicking the "Action" tab in the GitHub repository.

Enforced style guide using pre-commit hooks

We want to have a consistent style on all the contributions to the repository. The way we enforce this is through pre-commit hooks and contributors are encouraged to install the pre-commit hooks locally when developing. You can install the pre commit hooks by first install pre-commit

python3 -m pip install pre-commit

and then install the pre-commit hooks using the command

pre-commit install

at the root of the repository. This will install all the hooks listed in the file called .pre-commit-config.yaml in the root of the repository.

Every time you make a commit to the repository a set of tests will run to make sure that the changes you made are following the style guide. Usually, the hooks will autoformat your code so that you only need to do a git add again and then redo the git commit.

Note that when you make a push to the repo, the pre-commit hooks will be run on all the files in the repository. You can also run the pre-commit hooks on all the files using the command

pre-commit run --all
