How to contribute

Contributions are always appreciated.

How to:

• Submit Pull Request
• Fix Formatting
• Squash Commits

Pull request

In order to submit a change or a PR, please fork the project and follow instructions:

$ git clone http://github.com/<me>/kraken
$ cd kraken
$ git checkout -b <branch_name>
$ <make change>
$ git add <changes>
$ git commit -a
$ <insert good message>
$ git push

Fix Formatting

Kraken uses pre-commit framework to maintain the code linting and python code styling. The CI would run the pre-commit check on each pull request. We encourage our contributors to follow the same pattern, while contributing to the code.

The pre-commit configuration file is present in the repository .pre-commit-config.yaml It contains the different code styling and linting guide which we use for the application.

Following command can be used to run the pre-commit: pre-commit run --all-files

If pre-commit is not installed in your system, it can be install with : pip install pre-commit

Squash Commits

If there are mutliple commits, please rebase/squash multiple commits before creating the PR by following:

$ git checkout <my-working-branch>
$ git rebase -i HEAD~<num_of_commits_to_merge>
   -OR-
$ git rebase -i <commit_id_of_first_change_commit>

In the interactive rebase screen, set the first commit to pick and all others to squash (or whatever else you may need to do).

Push your rebased commits (you may need to force), then issue your PR.

$ git push origin <my-working-branch> --force
