2. Development & Collaboration


2.1. Short git introduction

  • distributed version control system
  • tracks history of changes commited by different contributors
  • every developer has full copy of project and its history

2.1.1 git config

git config --global user.name <your name>
git config --global user.email <your email>

2.1.2. Basic git commands

git init: initialises new git repository

git clone <repository url>: creates local copy of remote repository

git add <file/s>: stage new or changed files (anything that should be committed to the repository)

git commit -m "feat: my new feature": commit changes to the repository


2.1.2.1. commit message conventions

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

  • feat: new feature
  • fix: patching bug
  • refactor: code change that neither is neither feat nor fix
  • build: build system related changes
  • perf: improving performance

2.1.2.1. commit message conventions

<type>[optional scope]: <description>

  • chore: code unrelated changes, e.g. dependencies
  • style: code change that does not change meaning
  • test: changes to tests
  • docs: adding/updating documentation
  • ci: continuous integration, e.g. github actions

2.1.2. Basic git commands

git status: overview over untracked, modified and staged changes

git branch: show local branches

git merge: merge branches

git pull: load changes from remote counterpart

git push: upload changes to remote counterpart


2.2. Branching model: simplied Gitflow workflow

  • start with two branches to record project history: main and develop
  • each new feature resides in its own branch (feature branch)
  • feature branch is generally created off latest develop commit
  • upon feature completion, feature branch is merged into develop

2.2. Branching model: simplied Gitflow workflow


2.3. GitHub Actions

  • continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment (CD)
  • building, testing and deploying directly from GitHub
  • set up by adding yaml instructions to .github/workflows

2.3. GitHub Actions


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • go to issues and create a New issue

width:900px width:900px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • give the issue a descriptive title and a description and Submit new issue


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • if you decide to work on the issue (own repository), Create a branch via the issue


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • Change branch source to develop and Create branch

width:800px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • load the new branch to your local repository, check it out and start working
  • push your changes back to the remote
$ git pull
$ git checkout 4-new-fancy-feature
$ git add README.md
$ git commit -m "docs: updating docs"
$ git push

2.4. GitHub workflow

  • for repositories you don't have access to, create a fork

width:900px


2.4. GitHub workflow

width:400px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • once you have a fork, git clone your forked repository
  • create a new branch and work on that
  • git push your changes back to the forked remote

2.4. GitHub workflow

  • when you are done, go to pull requests and create a New pull request

width:900px width:900px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • choose develop as base and your new feature branch (same repo or forked) for compare


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • assign yourself, add at least one reviewer (cog icon), provide some context and Create pull request


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • if you still want to work on the pull request, you can Convert to draft to let the reviewers know that it is not done yet
  • otherwise you can just wait for them to review your changes

width:800px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • as a reviewer, make your you check your email notifications to see if there is pull requests waiting for you
  • open the pull request and start the review in the Files changed tab

width:800px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • you can leave comments and suggestions in the code by hovering over the line with the changes and clicking on +


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • you can type your comment


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • or you leave a suggestion, ideally you click Start a review to initialise the reviewing process

width:700px width:700px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • when you are done with reviewing, Finish your review

width:700px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • again, leave a comment if you like, and choose if you just want to Comment, Approve or Request changes

width:700px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • you can add a general comment to the pull request under Conversation


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • after the reviewer left their comments and suggestions, you can address them one by one by replying or applying the suggested changes
  • whenever a certain comment/suggestion is handled (discussion comes to conclusion, suggestion was applied), you can resolve it

width:700px


2.4. GitHub workflow

  • as soon as the reviewers gave you an approval, you can finally Merge pull request


2.4.1 Hands-on pull request

  • go to https://github.com/InPreD/24-03_bioinfo_ws/
  • create fork to your own account
  • open an issue "test pull request" or similar and create a branch
  • go to the branch and add a markdown file with your first name and favorite emoji to the participants folder, ideally the file is named <your first name>.md
  • open a pull request in the original repository and add someone else in the group to review your pull request
  • review someone else's pull request, give feedback and approve if correct

2.5. Release

  • releases should be from main branch
  • good practice is to open a pull request for develop into main when you are done with the desired features

2.5. Release

  • whenever you are ready for a new release, create a new release


2.5. Release

  • add a title and a description for your release and Choose a tag


2.5. Release

  • ideally, you choose a tag according to semantic versioning


2.5.1. Semantic versioning

  • version tag should be MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
  • you increment one of the three depending on the change
    • MAJOR: version when you make incompatible API changes
    • MINOR: version when you add functionality in a backward compatible manner
    • PATCH: version when you make backward compatible bug fixes

2.5. Release

  • when you are satisfied with your release, Publish release

2.6. Licensing

  • let's discuss

3. Nextflow


3.1. Short introduction

  • workflow manager that enables scalable and reproducible scientific workflows using software containers
  • an extension of groovy which is object-oriented programming language for the Java platform
  • can be used with an array of executors, such as SLURM, k8s, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and many more
  • nf-core: project/community that develops framework for nextflow including guidelines, tools, modules, subworkflows, pipelines and test data

3.2. Requirements

  • POSIX compatible system (e.g. Linux, Os X)
  • Bash
  • Java ≥ 11 / ≤ 21
  • Docker/Singularity

3.3. Installation

$ curl -s https://get.nextflow.io | bash
$ chmod +x nextflow

or

$ wget -O nextflow https://github.com/nextflow-io/nextflow/releases/download/v23.10.1/nextflow-23.10.1-all

or via browser at https://github.com/nextflow-io/nextflow/releases


3.4. Best pratice: nf-core template

5. Python project


5.1. Repository structure

  • consistency/standard
  • keep main script short and sweet - functionality in modules
#!/usr/local/bin/python

from my_module import main

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

5.1. Repository structure

  • module folder should contain __init__.py
  • keep functions short and try to refactor big functions
  • leave descriptive comments in code
  • use libraries to make your life easier
    • pandas: csv/tsv files
    • click or argparse: define cli input flags
  • introduce proper exception handling
  • logging with log levels

5.1.1. Unit testing

  • pytest for testing
  • include unit tests for functions, preferable table-driven
def addition(x, y):
  return x+y
import pytest

@pytest.mark.parametrize("x, y, z", [(1, 1, 2), (1, -1, 0)])
def test_eval(x, y, z):
    assert addition(x, y) == z
$ pytest

5.1. Repository structure

  • include test data for unit testing if necessary
  • create container image from project, preferably docker
  • include all necessary dependencies in requirements.txt (locked versions)
  • add GitHub actions for testing, linting, building, etc.
  • preferable include a devcontainer definition
  • README.md and other docs
