Contributing
============
Below is a list of tips for submitting issues and pull requests. These are
suggestions and not requirements.
Submitting Issues
-----------------
Issues are often easier to reproduce/resolve when they have:
- A pull request with a failing test demonstrating the issue
- A code example that produces the issue consistently
- A traceback (when applicable)
Pull Requests
-------------
When creating a pull request, try to:
- Write tests if applicable
- Note important changes in the `CHANGES`_ file
- Update the documentation if needed
- Add yourself to the `AUTHORS`_ file
- If you have added or changed translation strings, update translations
of languages you are able to do so. Also mention that translations need
to be updated in your pull request and commit message.
.. _AUTHORS: AUTHORS.rst
.. _CHANGES: CHANGES.rst
Translations
------------
If you are able to provide translations for a new language or to update an
existing translation file, make sure to run makemessages beforehand::
python django-admin.py makemessages -l ISO_LANGUAGE_CODE
This command will collect all translation strings from the source directory
and create or update the translation file for the given language. Now open the
translation file (.po) with a text-editor and start editing.
After you finished editing add yourself to the list of translators.
If you have created a new translation, make sure to copy the header from one
of the existing translation files.
Testing
-------
Please add tests for your code and ensure existing tests don't break. To run
the tests against your code::
python setup.py test
Please use tox to test the code against supported Python and Django versions.
First install tox::
pip install tox coverage
To run tox and generate a coverage report (in ``htmlcov`` directory)::
make test
**Please note**: Before a pull request can be merged, all tests must pass and
code/branch coverage in tests must be 100%.
