If you are reporting a bug, please include:

  • Your operating system name and version.
  • Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.
  • Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.

Fix Bugs

Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Implement Features

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "feature" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation

Asclepias Broker could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official Asclepias Broker docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.

Submit Feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/asclepias/asclepias-broker/issues.

If you are proposing a feature:

  • Explain in detail how it would work.
  • Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
  • Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :)

Get Started!

Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up asclepias-broker for local development.

  1. Fork the asclepias/asclepias-broker repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    $ git clone [email protected]:your_name_here/asclepias-broker.git
  3. Assuming you have pipenv, docker and docker-compose installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:

    $ ./scripts/bootstrap
  4. Create a branch for local development:

    $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

    Now you can make your changes locally.

  5. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass tests:

    $ ./run-tests.sh

    The tests will provide you with test coverage and also check PEP8 (code style), PEP257 (documentation), flake8 as well as build the Sphinx documentation and run doctests.

  6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:

    $ git add .
    $ git commit -m "component: summarize changes in 50 chars or less
    
    * More detailed explanatory text, if necessary. Formatted using
      bullet points, preferably `*`. Wrapped to 72 characters.
    * Explain the problem that this commit is solving. Focus on why you
      are making this change as opposed to how (the code explains that).
      Are there side effects or other unintuitive consequences of this
      change? Here's the place to explain them.
    * The blank line separating the summary from the body is critical
      (unless you omit the body entirely); various tools like `log`,
      `shortlog` and `rebase` can get confused if you run the two
      together.
    * Use words like "Adds", "Fixes" or "Breaks" in the listed bullets to
      help others understand what you did.
    * If your commit closes or addresses an issue, you can mention
      it in any of the bullets after the dot. (closes #XXX) (addresses #YYY)"
    
    $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
  7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

  1. The pull request should include tests and must not decrease test coverage.
  2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring.
  3. Check https://travis-ci.org/asclepias/asclepias-broker/pull_requests and make sure that all tests pass.
