Hello and welcome! I'm so glad you're considering contributing -- the more helping hands, the better, greater things we'll build.
As you may know, BidWire is being developed under the umbrella of Ragtag, a volunteer team of technologists working for progressive change. If you'd like to contribute to BidWire, I'd like to gently encourage you to join Ragtag -- this will give you access to our Slack, including the BidWire-specific channel where we discuss upcoming work and generally hang out.
To see our currently-planned work, check out our Pivotal Tracker.
If there is something you'd like to work on, get in touch so that we can help you get set up, answer questions, and make sure there isn't already someone working on the same thing.
Send a pull request to the BidWire master branch with a clear description of what you've done. Please follow our coding conventions, and add tests.
(Read more about pull requests and the GitHub workflow.)
We strive to comply with PEP8. To
auto-format your code before submission, you can use autopep8, which is
included in this project's dev requirements:
$ autopep8 --in-place <your_file.py>
We use Pytest for testing, and would love it if you wrote unit tests for the code you contribute. If for whatever reason you think it doesn't make sense to test your change, let us know in your pull request description.
Thanks!
