# Contributing to Kelpie.jl
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks for pitching in to Kelpie. Here's a basic outline of how we muster the
|
||||
mob of ideas and code from everyone into a single package.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 1. Check for a reported issue
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a problem with or suggestion for Kelpie, check to see if someone
|
||||
else has the same or a similar idea on our [Issues page]. If that issue exists,
|
||||
use a [GitHub reaction] to support it. If you can't find anything similar,
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 2. Open a new issue
|
||||
|
||||
Open a [new issue], and follow the template for your type of issue (there are
|
||||
separate templates for suggestions and bugs).
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 3. Fork the repo
|
||||
|
||||
If you think you can solve an issue, then [fork] the MillironX/Kelpie.jl repo to
|
||||
your own GitHub account. To keep things, clean, please [create a new branch] for
|
||||
your work.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 4. Code
|
||||
|
||||
There are many ways to code on a Julia package. This is my favorite, and there
|
||||
are dot files in the repo to support it.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install [Visual Studio Code]
|
||||
2. Clone your fork of the repo
|
||||
3. Open the package folder in VSCode
|
||||
4. [Install the recommended extensions]
|
||||
5. Checkout your branch
|
||||
6. Press <kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd>J</kbd>, <kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd>O</kbd> to launch an
|
||||
integrated Julia REPL
|
||||
7. Press <kbd>]</kbd>, and then type `activate .` <kbd>ENTER</kbd> `instantiate`
|
||||
<kbd>ENTER</kbd> <kbd>BACKSPACE</kbd>
|
||||
|
||||
Of note while you code:
|
||||
|
||||
- We use the [Blue style] for Julia files
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 5. Add or update tests
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure that your code passes all the current tests by using the REPL `] test`
|
||||
command. If you change functionality, please add tests for that functionality to
|
||||
the `test/runtests.jl` file.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 6. Update the Changelog
|
||||
|
||||
Add a note to the `CHANGELOG.md` file under the "Unreleased" header indicating
|
||||
what kind of change you made. See <https://keepachangelog.com> for the required
|
||||
format.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 7. Pull request
|
||||
|
||||
Submit a pull request against the `master` branch and wait for it to be merged.
