Add tests

We need more test to augment our coverage. Feel free to either add unit or integration tests.

Write Documentation

Taxonomy Editor needs a lot of documentation, whether in docs/ folder or in docstrings.

Submit Feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/openfoodfacts/taxonomy-editor/issues.

If you are proposing a feature:

  • Explain in detail how it would work.
  • Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
  • Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome.

Get Started!

Ready to contribute code? Here's how to set up Taxonomy Editor for local development.

  1. Fork the taxonomy-editor repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/taxonomy-editor.git

  3. Follow install documentation

  4. code!

  5. TODO: add explanations about linting / checks / tests when we have automated them.

  6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:

    git status
git add files-you-have-modified
git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

    In brief, commit messages should follow these conventions:

    • Always start using
    [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/)
prefix, e.g. "fix: ..." or "feat: ..."
    • Always contain a subject line which briefly describes the changes made. For example "fix: fixed typo in CONTRIBUTING.md".
    • Subject lines should not exceed 50 characters, but you can add more line after
    • The commit body should contain context about the change - how the code worked before,
    how it works now and why you decided to solve the issue in the way you did.
