Development

Get Started!

Check out code from the birdy GitHub repo and start the installation:

$ git clone https://github.com/bird-house/birdy.git
$ cd birdy
$ conda env create -f environment.yml
$ python setup.py develop

Install additional dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements_dev.txt

When you’re done making changes, check that your changes pass black, flake8 and the tests:

$ black birdy tests
$ flake8 birdy tests
$ pytest -v tests

Or use the Makefile:

$ make lint
$ make test
$ make test-all

Add pre-commit hooks

Before committing your changes, we ask that you install pre-commit in your environment. Pre-commit runs git hooks that ensure that your code resembles that of the project and catches and corrects any small errors or inconsistencies when you git commit:

$ conda install -c conda-forge pre_commit
$ pre-commit install

Write Documentation

You can find the documentation in the docs/source folder. To generate the Sphinx documentation locally you can use the Makefile:

$ make docs

Bump a new version
