Contributing

Contributions are welcome! To get setup for development, follow the instructions below.

Setup

Make sure you have poetry installed, clone the repository, and install dependencies with:

git clone https://github.com/jbloomAus/SAELens.git # we recommend you make a fork for submitting PR's and clone that!
poetry lock # can take a while.
poetry install 
make check-ci # validate the install

Testing, Linting, and Formatting

This project uses pytest for testing, pyright for type-checking, and Ruff for formatting and linting.

If you add new code, it would be greatly appreciated if you could add tests in the tests/unit directory. You can run the tests with:

make unit-test

Before commiting, make sure you format the code with:

make format

Finally, run all CI checks locally with:

make check-ci

If these pass, you're good to go! Open a pull request with your changes.

Documentation

This project uses mkdocs for documentation. You can see the docs locally with:

make docs-serve

If you make changes to code which requires updating documentation, it would be greatly appreciated if you could update the docs as well.
