How to Contribute

Preparing the environment

First, clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/GlobalFishingWatch/gfw-common.git

Create virtual environment and activate it:

make venv
./.venv/bin/activate

Install pre-commit hooks for local development:

make install-pre-commit

Install dependencies and package in editable mode for local development:

make install

Make sure you can run unit tests:

make test

Development Workflow

Regarding the git workflow, we follow GitHub Flow. See GITHUB-FLOW.md for a quick summary.

Try to write good commit messages. See How to Write a Git Commit Message guide for details.

The pre-commit hooks will take care of validating your code before a commit in terms of PEP8 standards, type-checking, miss-pellings, missing documentation, etc. If you want/need to do it manually, you have commands in the Makefile. To see options, type make.

How to Release

Creating a tag will automatically trigger a GitHub Action (release.yaml) to publish the package to PyPI. The tag must match the version declared in pyproject.toml; this will be validated by the action. The tag name must follow the format vX.Y.Z.

[!NOTE] In this context, X, Y and Z refer to MAJOR, MINOR and PATCH of Semantic Versioning.
