Contributing

Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.

You can contribute in many ways:

Types of Contributions

Report Bugs

Report bugs at https://github.com/kragniz/python-etcd3/issues.

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" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Implement Features

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "enhancement" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation

python-etcd3 could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official python-etcd3 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/kragniz/python-etcd3/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 python-etcd3 for local development.

  1. Fork the python-etcd3 repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    $ git clone [email protected]:your_name_here/python-etcd3.git
  3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:

    $ mkvirtualenv etcd3
    $ cd etcd3/
    $ python setup.py develop
  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 flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:

    $ flake8 etcd3 tests
    $ python setup.py test or py.test
    $ tox

    To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

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

    $ git add .
    $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
    $ 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.
  2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
  3. The pull request should work for Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5, and for PyPy. Check https://travis-ci.org/kragniz/python-etcd3/pull_requests and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.

Generating protobuf stubs

If the upstream protobuf files changes, copy the stubs:

$ cp etcd/etcdserver/etcdserverpb/*.proto python-etcd3/etcd3/proto/

Then:

$ cd python-etcd3
$ tox -e genproto

Cutting new releases

The release process to PyPi is automated using travis deploys and bumpversion.

  1. Check changes since the last release:

    $ git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --oneline
  2. Bump the version (respecting semver, one of major, minor or patch):

    $ bumpversion patch
  3. Push to github:

    $ git push
    $ git push --tags
  4. Wait for travis tests to run and deploy to PyPI

Dependency management

This project uses pip-compile-multi (https://pypi.org/project/pip-compile-multi/) for hard-pinning dependencies versions. Please see its documentation for usage instructions. In short, requirements/base.in contains the list of direct requirements with occasional version constraints (like Django<2) and requirements/base.txt is automatically generated from it by adding recursive tree of dependencies with fixed versions. The same goes for test and dev.

To upgrade dependency versions, run pip-compile-multi.

To add a new dependency without upgrade, add it to requirements/base.in and run pip-compile-multi --no-upgrade.

For installation always use .txt files. For example, command pip install -Ue . -r requirements/dev.txt will install this project in development mode, testing requirements and development tools. Another useful command is pip-sync requirements/dev.txt, it uninstalls packages from your virtualenv that aren't listed in the file.
