How to contribute to Sheetfu

(this is pretty much a copy of the Flask contribution documentation).

Thank you for considering contributing to Sheetfu! This is a very young library, easy to understand, where lots can be added.

Support questions

For questions about your own code ask on Stack Overflow. Search with Google first using: site:stackoverflow.com sheetfu {search term, exception message, etc.}

Reporting issues

Use the issue tracker for this:

  • Describe what you expected to happen.
  • If possible, include a minimal, complete, and verifiable example to help us identify the issue. This also helps check that the issue is not with your own code.
  • Describe what actually happened. Include the full traceback if there was an exception.
  • List your Python and Sheetfu version.

Submitting patches

  • Include tests if your patch is supposed to solve a bug, and explain clearly under which circumstances the bug happens. Make sure the test fails without your patch.
  • Try to follow PEP8.
  • Use the utils at your disposition in test folders to mock api requests.
  • Every mock request should be put in the fixture folder.
  • Tests are run with pytest.

First time setup

  • Download and install the latest version of git.

  • Configure git with your username and email:

    git config --global user.name 'your name'
    git config --global user.email 'your email'
    
  • Make sure you have a GitHub account.

  • Fork Sheetfu to your GitHub account by clicking the Fork button.

  • Clone your GitHub fork locally:

    git clone https://github.com/{username}/sheetfu
    cd sheetfu
    
  • Add the main repository as a remote to update later:

    git remote add socialpoint-labs https://github.com/socialpoint-labs/sheetfu
    git fetch socialpoint-labs
    
  • Create a virtualenv:

    python3 -m venv env
    . env/bin/activate
    # or "env\Scripts\activate" on Windows
    
  • Install Sheetfu in editable mode with development dependencies:

    pip install -e ".[dev]"
    

Start coding

  • Create a branch to identify the issue you would like to work on (e.g. 2287-dry-test-suite)
  • Using your favorite editor, make your changes, committing as you go.
  • Try to follow PEP8.
  • Include tests that cover any code changes you make. Make sure the test fails without your patch.
  • Push your commits to GitHub and create a pull request.
  • Celebrate 🎉

Running the tests

Run the basic test suite with:

pytest

This only runs the tests for the current environment. Travis-CI will run the full suite when you submit your pull request.

Running test coverage

Generating a report of lines that do not have test coverage can indicate where to start contributing. Run pytest using coverage and generate a report on the terminal and as an interactive HTML document:

coverage run -m pytest
coverage report
coverage html
# then open htmlcov/index.html

Read more about coverage.

Semantic versioning

Sheetfu follows the 2.0.0 specification of Semantic Versioning. All version number should follow the following format:

v<major>.<minor>.<patch>
example: v3.5.1

Read more about semantic versioning.

AngularJS commit convention

Sheetfu follows the AngularJS commit specifications. Commit messages should be structured with the following format:

<type>(<scope>): <subject>
<BLANK LINE>
<body>
<BLANK LINE>
<footer>

Allowed <type> values are the following:

feat (feature)
fix (bug fix)
docs (documentation)
style (formatting)
refactor
test (when adding missing tests)
chore (maintain)

It's important to follow this commit specification, as the version numbers will be generated accordingly to the commit messages since the previous version. It's also important to specify which commits include breaking changes in the commit footer.

make targets

Sheetfu provides a Makefile with various shortcuts. They will ensure that all dependencies are installed.

  • make test runs the basic test suite with pytest
  • make cov runs the basic test suite with coverage
