The *.py* files include primarily functions (with their necessary packages imported) while the notebooks call these functions and display the plots generated. The *.py* files are separated into broad categories of plots, tools and utilities. If you'd like to add a function to calculate some thing WIDGET and then to plot the result of the calculation, you will want to write a function in tools.py and then a plotting function in plots.py. There are a couple exceptions: If it's a very simple calculation (mean, median, difference between two quantities), you might put the entire calculation within the plotting function. See for example `plots.plot_updown_bias()`. Or, if the calculation is more complicated, but is easily displayed by an existing function, then you might have a calculation function `tools.calc_foo_bar()` and then use an existing `plots.plot_histogram()` to display it. + +#### Best practices for new functions + +- Once you've added a function, you can test it against one or two of the sample datasets in `notebooks/demo.ipynb`. Does it have the same behaviour on those sample datasets as you expect? +- Have you followed the conventions for naming your function? Generally, function names should be short, agnostic about the vehicle used, and understandable to Person X. We also loosely follow naming conventions to help the new user understand what a function might do (e.g., plotting functions in `plots.py` typically start with the name `plot_blahblah()` while calculations are` calc_blahblah()` and calculations with special outputs are `compute_blahblah()`. Functions not inteded for use by the end user (e.g. sub-calculations) should be added to `utilities.py` +- Unless otherwise required, we suggest to pass an xarray dataset (as you get from loading an OG1 dataset) as the input. There are some parameters that can be additionally passed to carry out subsets on the data or select the variable of interest. +- Did you write a docstring? We use the [numpy standard for docstings](https://numpydoc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/format.html#docstring-standard). We also suggest including your name or GitHub handle under the original author heading. Look at some existing docstrings in `glidertest` if you are unsure of the format. +- There are also some basic error checking behaviours you should consider including. If you're plotting a particular variable, use the `glidertest.utilities._check_necessary_variables()` function to check whether or not the required variables are within the dataset passed to the function. +- For plotting functions on a single axis, you should include as optional inputs the `fig` and `ax`, and return the same, to enable their usage within multi-axes plots. For plotting functions with multiple or interrelated axes, perhaps fig and ax shouldn't be included as inputs, but can be provided as outputs for the user to make onward edits. +- For plotting, see the guidance on uniformity (using standard lineswidths, figure sizes and font sizes etc.). These are all described in `glidertest/glidertest.mplstyle`, in case an individual user wants to change these to their preferences. +- Each new function should have a corresponding test, feel free to ask if you're not sure how to write a test! + +### Improving The Documentation + +Our [documentation](https://callumrollo.github.io/glidertest/) is built from the function docstrings and the [example notebook](https://callumrollo.github.io/glidertest/demo-output.html). If you think the documentation could be better, do not hesitate to suggest an improvement! Either in an Issue or a PR. + +## Attribution +This guide is based on the **contributing-gen**.
