You need Python 3.10+ and the following tools:
Install pipx:
python -m pip install --user pipx
python -m pipx ensurepath
Install Poetry:
pipx install poetry
Install Nox and nox-poetry:
pipx install nox
pipx inject nox nox-poetry
Install the pre-commit hooks
nox --session=pre-commit -- install
Install the package with development requirements:
poetry install
You can now run an interactive Python session, or your app:
poetry run python
poetry run datadoc
We use a python package called python-dotenv
for configuration management. This gives two possibilities for sourcing configuration:
- Environment variables.
- A file called
.env
by convention.
To set up for local development run this command from the root of the repo.
-
Create a file
src/datadoc/.env
-
Place the following lines in the file:
DATADOC_DASH_DEVELOPMENT_MODE=True DATADOC_LOG_LEVEL=debug
To see all configuration options, see src/datadoc/config.py
Run the full test suite:
nox
List the available Nox sessions:
nox --list-sessions
You can also run a specific Nox session. For example, invoke the unit test suite like this:
nox --session=tests
Unit tests are located in the tests directory, and are written using the pytest testing framework.
docker run -p 8050:8050 \
-v $HOME/.config/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json/:/application_default_credentials.json \
-e GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/application_default_credentials.json" \
datadoc
Run the relevant version command on a branch e.g.
poetry version patch
poetry version minor
Commit with message like Bump version x.x.x -> y.y.y
.
Open and merge a PR.
Open a pull request to submit changes to this project.
Your pull request needs to meet the following guidelines for acceptance:
- The Nox test suite must pass without errors and warnings.
- Include unit tests. This project maintains 100% code coverage.
- If your changes add functionality, update the documentation accordingly.
Feel free to submit early, though—we can always iterate on this.
To run linting and code formatting checks before committing your change, you can install pre-commit as a Git hook by running the following command:
nox --session=pre-commit -- install
It is recommended to open an issue before starting work on anything. This will allow a chance to talk it over with the owners and validate your approach.
