Developer's Guide

This guide describes how to complete various tasks you'll encounter when working on the Bayes3D codebase.

Commit Hooks

We use pre-commit to manage a series of git pre-commit hooks for the project; for example, each time you commit code, the hooks will make sure that your python is formatted properly. If your code isn't, the hook will format it, so when you try to commit the second time you'll get past the hook.

All hooks are defined in .pre-commit-config.yaml. To install these hooks, install pre-commit if you don't yet have it. I prefer using pipx so that pre-commit stays globally available.

pipx install pre-commit

Then install the hooks with this command:

pre-commit install

Now they'll run on every commit. If you want to run them manually, run the following command:

pre-commit run --all-files
