How to migrate your state files to >= 2.0.0

First open your toml state file in a text editor. You can open the screen position in the app by using the pos command, and copy/pasting the real and imaginary values. Then, select the correct fractal, color palette, precision and max_iter values in the app, and use the save_state command to save your updated state file.

Development

Please, open an issue if you have any suggestion or if you found a bug. I will try to fix it as soon as possible. If you want to contribute, open an empty pull request and explain what you want to do, wait for me to approve it and then you can start working on it.

Development environment

For this project, I recomment using vscode with Flake8 (linting/type-checking).

You will need to fork this repo and clone it locally.

# Replace SkwalExe with your github username
git clone https://github.com/SkwalExe/fractalistic
cd fractalistic

Then, install the project and the dependencies locally

pip install .

Running the app in textual dev mode

• First, open a textual console in a terminal with this command.

textual console

You will need to have textual-dev installed. You can install it with pip.

pip install textual-dev

• You can now open a new terminal, and start fractalistic in textual dev mode with :

# You must already be cd-ed into the repo directory
TEXTUAL=devtools,debug python3 -m fractalistic

You will be able to see the app logs, and print to the textual console with the textual.log function.

Creating a pull request

• First, create a new branch with a name that describes your feature/fix.

git checkout -b my-new-feature

You can now start working on your feature/fix.

• Before commiting, you should run the linter and type-checker to make sure your code is clean.

# 'pip install flake8' if you don't have it
flake8 fractalistic

If you get any error, you should fix it before commiting.

• Now, commit your changes and push them to your fork.

git add .
git commit -m "My new feature"
git push origin my-new-feature

• Finally, open a pull request on github from your fork's page. I should receive a notification and I will review your changes.
