Contributing

Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.

Bug reports

When 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.

Documentation improvements

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

Feature requests and feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/oemof/oemof-solph/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 code contributions are welcome :)

Development

To set up oemof-solph for local development:

  1. Fork oemof-solph (look for the "Fork" button).

  2. Clone your fork locally:

    git clone git@github.com:oemof/oemof-solph.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. When you're done making changes run all the checks and docs builder with tox one command:

    tox
    
  5. 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
    
  6. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines

If you need some code review or feedback while you're developing the code just make the pull request.

For merging, you should:

  1. Include passing tests (run tox) [1].
  2. Update documentation when there's new API, functionality etc.
  3. Add a note about the changes to docs/whatsnew/next_version.rst.
  4. Add your name to AUTHORS.rst and CITATION.cff.

If you don't have all the necessary python versions available locally, you can rely on the CI pipeline at GitHub.

It will be slower though ...

Tests

To run the all tests run:

tox

Note, to combine the coverage data from all the tox environments run:

Windows
set PYTEST_ADDOPTS=--cov-append
tox
Other
PYTEST_ADDOPTS=--cov-append tox

Tips

To run only parts of the testing pipeline (e.g. documentation, stylcheck, specific python version):

tox -e envname

Available standard environments are:

clean
check
docs
py39
py310
py311

To run a subset of tests:

tox -e envname -- pytest -k test_myfeature

To run all the test environments in parallel (you need to pip install detox):

detox
