*****************
How to contribute
*****************
So you want to contribute to the Powerline project? Awesome! This document
describes the guidelines you should follow when making contributions to the
project.
**Please note that these guidelines aren't mandatory in any way, but your
pull request will be merged a lot faster if you follow them.**
Getting started
===============
* Make sure you have a `GitHub account <https://github.com/signup/free>`_.
* Submit an `issue on GitHub <https://github.com/powerline/powerline/issues>`_,
assuming one does not already exist.
* Clearly describe the issue.
* If the issue is a bug: make sure you include steps to reproduce, and
include the earliest revision that you know has the issue.
* Fork the repository on GitHub.
Making changes
==============
* Create a topic branch from where you want to base your work.
* Powerline uses the `Git Flow
<http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/>`_ branching
model.
* Most contributions should be based off the ``develop`` branch.
* Prefix your branch with ``feature/`` if you're working on a new feature.
* Include the issue number in your topic branch, e.g.
``321-fix-some-error`` or ``feature/123-a-cool-feature``.
* Make commits of logical units.
* Run your code through ``flake8`` and fix any programming style errors. Use
common sense regarding whitespace warnings, not all warnings need to be
fixed.
* Make sure your commit messages are in the `proper format
<http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html>`_.
The summary must be no longer than 70 characters. Refer to any related
issues with e.g. ``Ref #123`` or ``Fixes #234`` at the bottom of the
commit message. Commit messages can use Markdown with the following
exceptions:
* No HTML extensions.
* Only indented code blocks (no ``````` blocks).
* Long links should be moved to the bottom if they make the text wrap or
extend past 72 columns.
* Make sure you have added the necessary tests for your changes.
* Run *all* the tests to assure nothing else was accidentally broken.
Programming style
-----------------
* The project uses *tabs for indentation* and *spaces for alignment*, this
is also included in a vim modeline on top of every script file.
* Run your code through ``flake8 --ignore=W191,E501,E128,W291,E126,E101`` to fix
any style errors. Use common sense regarding whitespace warnings, not all
``flake8`` warnings need to be fixed.
* Trailing whitespace to indicate a continuing paragraph is OK in comments,
documentation and commit messages.
* It is allowed to have too long lines. It is advised though to avoid lines
wider then a hundred of characters.
* Imports have the following structure:
1. Shebang and modeline in a form
.. code-block:: python
#!/usr/bin/env python
# vim:fileencoding=utf-8:noet
. Modeline is required, shebang is not. If shebang is present file must end
with
.. code-block:: python
if __name__ == '__main__':
# Actual script here
2. Module docstring.
3. ``__future__`` import exactly in a form
.. code-block:: python
from __future__ import (unicode_literals, division, absolute_import, print_function)
(powerline.shell is the only exception due to problems with argparse). It
is not separated by newline with shebang and modeline, but is with
docstring.
4. Standard python library imports in a form ``import X``.
5. Standard python library imports in a form ``from X import Y``.
6. Third-party (non-python and non-powerline) library imports in a form
``import X``.
7. Third-party library imports in a form ``from X import Y``.
8. Powerline non-test imports in a form ``from powerline.X import Y``.
9. Powerline test imports in a form ``import tests.vim as vim_module``.
10. Powerline test imports in a form ``from tests.X import Y``.
Each entry is separated by newline from another entry. Any entry except for
the first and third ones is optional. Example with all entries:
.. code-block:: python
#!/usr/bin/env python
# vim:fileencoding=utf-8:noet
'''Powerline super module'''
from __future__ import (unicode_literals, division, absolute_import, print_function)
import sys
from argparse import ArgumentParser
import psutil
from colormath.color_diff import delta_e_cie2000
from powerline.lib.unicode import u
import tests.vim as vim_module
from tests import TestCase
Submitting changes
==================
* Push your changes to a topic branch in your fork of the repository.
* If necessary, use ``git rebase -i <revision>`` to squash or reword commits
before submitting a pull request.
* Submit a pull request to `powerline repository
<https://github.com/powerline/powerline>`_.
