Get Started

Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up Vadi for local development. Please note this documentation assumes you already have poetry and Git installed and ready to go.

  1. Fork the Vadi repo on GitHub.

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    git clone [email protected]:YOUR_NAME/Vadi.git

  3. Create a branch for local development:

    git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature

    Now you can make your changes locally.

  4. Setup virtual environment and instll dependecies

    You need to have poetry installed on your machine. Check python-poetry.org for installation instructions.

    make install

  5. Don't forget to add test cases with relevant documentation for your added functionality to the tests directory.

  6. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the formatting tests.

    make check

  7. Now, validate that all unit tests are passing:

    make test

  8. Before raising a pull request you should also run tox. This will run the tests across different versions of Python:

    tox

    This requires you to have multiple versions of python installed. This step is also triggered in the CI/CD pipeline, so you could also choose to skip this step locally.

  9. 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

  10. 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.md.
