Thanks for considering contributing your work to make Platypush a better product!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Contributions are more than welcome, and the follow the standard Gitlab procedure:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [Fork the repo](https://git.platypush.tech/platypush/platypush).
|
||
|
|
- Prepare your changes.
|
||
|
|
- [Submit a merge request](https://git.platypush.tech/platypush/platypush/-/merge_requests).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Guidelines:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The code should ideally have no LINT warnings/issues.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Project conventions:
|
||
|
|
- 4 spaces to indent
|
||
|
|
- RST format for classes and methods documentation
|
||
|
|
- Run `generate_missing_docs.sh` if you are adding new plugins/backends to automatically
|
||
|
|
generate the doc templates
|
||
|
|
- Naming conventions: plugin classes are named `<Module>Plugin` and backend classes are
|
||
|
|
named `<Module>Backend`, with `<Module>` being the (camel-case) representation of the
|
||
|
|
Python module of the plugin without the prefix - for example, the plugin under
|
||
|
|
`platypush.plugins.light.hue` must be named `LightHuePlugin`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If possible, [add a test](https://git.platypush.tech/platypush/platypush/-/tree/master/tests)
|
||
|
|
for the new functionality. If you have built a new functionality that works with some specific
|
||
|
|
device or service then it's not required to write a test that mocks the whole service, but if
|
||
|
|
you are changing some of the core entities (e.g. requests, events, procedures, hooks, crons
|
||
|
|
or the bus) then make sure to add tests and not to break the existing tests.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If the feature requires an optional dependency then make sure to document it:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- In the class docstring (see other plugins and backends for examples)
|
||
|
|
- In [`setup.py`](https://git.platypush.tech/platypush/platypush/-/blob/master/setup.py#L72) as
|
||
|
|
an `extras_require` entry
|
||
|
|
- In [`requirements.txt`](https://git.platypush.tech/platypush/platypush/-/blob/master/requirements.txt) -
|
||
|
|
if the feature is optional then leave it commented and add a one-line comment to explain which
|
||
|
|
plugin or backend requires it.
