  • Explain in detail how it would work.

  • Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.

Get Started!

Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up named_enum for local development.

  1. Fork the named_enum repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    $ git clone git@your_repo_url.git
    
  3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenv installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:

    $ python -m virtualenv named_enum-venv
    $ source named_enum-venv/bin/activate
    $ cd named_enum/
    

    Now you can install named_enum in develop mode in your virtual environment:

    $ pip install -e .
    

    or:

    $ poetry install
    
  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 all linting checks and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:

    $ make install
    $ make flake8
    $ make mypy
    $ make bandit
    $ make test
    $ tox
    
  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 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12.

Deploying

To deploy the package, just run:

$ poetry version patch  # possible: major / minor / patch / premajor / preminor / prepatch
$ git commit -m "Bump version: {old_version} -> {new_version}."
$ git push
$ git push --tags

Github Actions will do the rest.
