Contributing

Contributions and issues are most welcome! All issues and pull requests are handled through github on the ambitioninc repository. Also, please check for any existing issues before filing a new one. If you have a great idea but it involves big changes, please file a ticket before making a pull request! We want to make sure you don’t spend your time coding something that might not fit the scope of the project.

Running the tests

To get the source source code and run the unit tests, run:

git clone git://github.com/ambitioninc/django-issue.git
cd django-issue
virtualenv env
. env/bin/activate
python setup.py install
coverage run setup.py test
coverage report --fail-under=100

While 100% code coverage does not make a library bug-free, it significantly reduces the number of easily caught bugs! Please make sure coverage is at 100% before submitting a pull request!

Code Quality

For code quality, please run flake8:

pip install flake8
flake8 .

Code Styling

Please arrange imports with the following style

# Standard library imports
import os

# Third party package imports
from mock import patch
from django.conf import settings

# Local package imports
from issue.version import __version__

Please follow Google’s python style guide wherever possible.

Building the docs

When in the project directory:

pip install -r requirements/docs.txt
python setup.py build_sphinx
open docs/_build/html/index.html

  • Bump version in issue/version.py
