Before you contribute
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Before we can use your code, you must sign the `Google Individual Contributor
|
|
License Agreement
|
|
<https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual?csw=1>`_ (CLA), which
|
|
you can do online. The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the
|
|
copyright to your changes, even after your contribution becomes part of our
|
|
codebase, so we need your permission to use and distribute your code. We also
|
|
need to be sure of various other things—for instance that you'll tell us if you
|
|
know that your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
|
|
the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
|
|
approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
|
|
Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch with
|
|
us first through the issue tracker with your idea so that we can help out and
|
|
possibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid
|
|
frustration later on.
|

|
|
Code reviews
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We
|
|
use Github pull requests for this purpose.

YAPF coding style
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
YAPF follows the `Chromium Python Style Guide
|
|
<https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/python-style-guidelines>`_. It's the same
|
|
as the Google Python Style guide with two exceptions:
|
|
|
|
- 2 spaces for indentation rather than 4.
|
|
- CamelCase for function and method names rather than words_with_underscores.
|
|
|
|
The rationale for this is that YAPF was initially developed at Google where
|
|
these two exceptions are still part of the internal Python style guide.

Contributions made by corporations are covered by a different agreement than
|

the one above, the Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement.
