Types of Contributions

You can contribute in many ways:

Report Bugs

Report bugs at https://github.com/seanpue/graphtransliterator/issues.

If you are reporting a bug, please include:

  • Your operating system name and version.

  • Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.

  • Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.

Fix Bugs

Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with “bug” and “help wanted” is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Implement Features

Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with “enhancement” and “help wanted” is open to whoever wants to implement it.

Write Documentation

Graph-based Transliterator could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official Graph-based Transliterator docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.

Submit Feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/seanpue/graphtransliterator/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 :)

Add Transliterators

We welcome new transliterators to be added to the bundled transliterators!

See the documentation about Bundled Transliterators and look at Example as a model.

Raise an issue on Github, https://github.com/seanpue/graphtransliterator/issues

Then create a new branch with the new transliterator. Make sure the transliterator passes all of these requirements:

  • is a submodule of graphtransliterator.transliterators

  • has a unique name, preferably in format source_to_target

  • has the following files: - __init__.py - {{source_to_target}}.yaml - {{source_to_target}}.json - tests/{{source_to_target}}_tests.yaml - tests/test_{{source_to_target}}.py (optional)

  • has a classname in camel case, e.g. SourceToTarget

  • has complete test coverage of all nodes and edges of generated graph and all onmatch rules, if present

  • has required metadata in the YAML file.

When all the requirements are fulfilled, submit a pull request, and it will be reviewed for inclusion in a near-future release.

Get Started!

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

  1. Fork the graphtransliterator repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    $ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/graphtransliterator.git
    
  3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:

    $ mkvirtualenv graphtransliterator
    $ cd graphtransliterator/
    $ python setup.py develop
    
  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, format your code using the Black code formatter. (You can do that in your editor, as well). Then check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:

    $ black graphtransliterator
    $ flake8 graphtransliterator tests
    $ python setup.py test or py.test
    $ tox
    

    To get black, flake8, and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

    You should also test your coverage using make:

    $ make coverage

  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 and 3.8 for PyPy. Check https://travis-ci.org/seanpue/graphtransliterator/pull_requests and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.

Tips

To run a subset of tests:

$ py.test tests.test_graphtransliterator

Deploying

A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy. Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in HISTORY.rst). Then run:

$ bumpversion patch # possible: major / minor / patch
$ git push
$ git push --tags

The module uses Github Actions to deploy to TestPyPI and to PyPI.
