Contributing to this project should be as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:
- Reporting a bug
- Discussing the current state of the code
- Submitting a fix
- Proposing new features
Github is used to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase.
- Fork the repo and create your branch from
master
. - If you've changed something, update the documentation.
- Make sure your code lints (using black).
- Test you contribution.
- Issue that pull request!
In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same MIT License that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.
Report bugs using Github's issues
GitHub issues are used to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue; it's that easy!
Great Bug Reports tend to have:
- A quick summary and/or background
- Steps to reproduce
- Be specific!
- Give sample code if you can.
- What you expected would happen
- What actually happens
- Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)
People love thorough bug reports. I'm not even kidding.
Use black and prettier to make sure the code follows the style.
Or use the pre-commit
settings implemented in this repository
(see deicated section below).
This custom component is based on integration_blueprint template.
It comes with development environment in a container, easy to launch
if you use Visual Studio Code. With this container you will have a stand alone
Home Assistant instance running and already configured with the included
.devcontainer/configuration.yaml
file.
You can use the pre-commit
settings implemented in this repository to have
linting tool checking your contributions (see deicated section below).
You should also verify that existing tests are still working and you are encouraged to add new ones. You can run the tests using the following commands from the root folder:
# Create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
# Install requirements
pip install -r requirements_test.txt
# Run tests and get a summary of successes/failures and code coverage
pytest --durations=10 --cov-report term-missing --cov=custom_components.foxess_modbus tests
If any of the tests fail, make the necessary changes to the tests as part of your changes to the integration.
You can use the pre-commit settings included in the repostory to have code style and linting checks.
With pre-commit
tool already installed,
activate the settings of the repository:
$ pre-commit install
Now the pre-commit tests will be done every time you commit.
You can run the tests on all repository file with the command:
$ pre-commit run --all-files
