Contribution Guide 📖

First off, thanks for taking the time to contribute! 😇

Contributions include but are not restricted to:

  • Reporting bugs
  • Contributing to code
  • Writing tests
  • Writing documentation

A recommended flow of contributing to an Open Source project

  1. First, fork this project to your own namespace using the fork button at the top right of the repository page.

  2. Clone your fork repository to local:

    git clone https://github.com/YOURNAME/capture-db-queries.git
  3. Add the fork as a new remote:

    git remote add fork https://github.com/YOURNAME/capture-db-queries.git
    git fetch fork

Local development

We recommend working in a virtual environment. Feel free to create a virtual environment with either the venv module or the virtualenv tool. For example:

  1. Create virtual environment

    python -m venv venv
    . venv/bin/activate  # linux
    venv/Scripts/activate  # windows
  2. Install development dependencies

    pip install ."[dev]"  # linux
    pip install .[dev]  # windows
  3. Install pre-commit

    pre-commit install
  4. (Optional) Run pre-commit run --all-files to run linters and formatters.

    This step is optional and will be executed automatically by git before you make a commit, but you may want to run it manually in order to apply fixes.

Now, all dependencies are installed into the Python environment you chose, which will be used for development after this point 🎉.

Making changes to the project

Don't modify code on the main branch, the main branch should always keep track of origin/main 💡.

  1. (Optional) To update main branch to date:

    git pull origin main
    # In rare cases that your local main branch diverges from the remote main:
    git fetch origin && git reset --hard main
  2. Create a new branch based on the up-to-date main branch for new patches.

Code should be Pythonic and zen

  • All functions, methods, classes, and attributes should be documented with a docstring. We use the Google docstring style.

    If you come across a function or method that doesn't conform to this standard, please update it as you go

  • Writing and running tests

    • Tests are contained within the tests directory, and follow the same directory structure as the capture_db_queries module. If you are adding a test case, it should be located within the correct submodule of tests. E.g., tests for capture_db_queries/decorators.py reside in tests/test_decorators.py.
  1. Make your changes

  2. Make sure that nothing is broken after making changes and all tests are checked.

    pytest

    The test suite is still simple and needs expansion! Please help write more test cases.

  3. Commit your changes to git 📝. We follow conventional commits which are enforced using a pre-commit hook.

  4. Push the changes to your fork

  5. Open a pull request 📥. (using the pull request button at the top right of the repository page). Give the pull request a descriptive title indicating what it changes. The style of the PR title should also follow conventional commits.

  6. Go to the Release Action and make sure that the workflow was successful ✅.

  7. Wait until the pull request is accepted by the repository owner ⏳.
