# nf-core/modules: Contributing Guidelines
|
|
|
|
Hi there!
|
|
Many thanks for taking an interest in improving nf-core/modules.
|
|
|
|
We try to manage the required tasks for nf-core/modules using GitHub issues, you probably came to this page when creating one.
|
|
Please use the pre-filled template to save time.
|
|
|
|
However, don't be put off by this template - other more general issues and suggestions are welcome!
|
|
Contributions to the code are even more welcome ;)
|
|
|
|
> If you need help using or modifying nf-core/modules then the best place to ask is on the nf-core Slack [#modules](https://nfcore.slack.com/channels/modules) channel ([join our Slack here](https://nf-co.re/join/slack)).
|
|
|
|
## Contribution workflow
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to write some code for nf-core/modules, the standard workflow is as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. Check that there isn't already an issue about your idea in the [nf-core/modules issues](https://github.com/nf-core/modules/issues) to avoid duplicating work
|
|
|
|
- If there isn't one already, please create one so that others know you're working on this
|
|
|
|
2. [Fork](https://help.github.com/en/github/getting-started-with-github/fork-a-repo) the [nf-core/modules repository](https://github.com/nf-core/modules) to your GitHub account
|
|
3. When adding a module file, follow the [guidelines](https://github.com/nf-core/modules#adding-a-new-module-file)
|
|
4. Ensure that [tests are working locally](https://github.com/nf-core/modules#running-tests-locally)
|
|
5. Submit a Pull Request against the `master` branch and wait for the code to be reviewed and merged
|
|
|
|
If you're not used to this workflow with git, you can start with some [docs from GitHub](https://help.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests) or even their [excellent `git` resources](https://try.github.io/).
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
|
|
When you create a pull request with changes, [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions) will run automatic tests.
|
|
Typically, pull-requests are only fully reviewed when these tests are passing, though of course we can help out before then.
|
|
|
|
### Module tests
|
|
|
|
Each `nf-core/module` should be set up with a minimal set of test-data.
|
|
`GitHub Actions` then runs the module on this data to ensure that it exits successfully.
|
|
If there are any failures then the automated tests fail.
|
|
These tests are run both with the latest available version of `Nextflow` and also the minimum required version that is stated in the pipeline code.
|
|
|
|
