Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up xlavir
for local development.
-
Fork the
xlavir
repo on GitHub. -
Clone your fork locally
git clone [email protected]:your_name_here/xlavir.git
-
Install your local copy into a virtualenv.
cd xlavir/ python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate pip install -e .[dev,test]
-
Create a branch for local development
git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
-
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass ruff linting and the tests.
ruff . pytest
-
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
-
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
- The pull request should work for Python 3.8, 3.9, 3.10 and 3.11. Check CI and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.
To run a subset of tests
pytest tests.test_xlavir
A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy:
- Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in CHANGELOG.md).
- Make sure you have updated the version number in
pyproject.toml
- GitHub Actions will then deploy to PyPI if tests pass.
