=====
Setup
=====
If you plan on hacking on psutil this is what you're supposed to do first:
- clone the GIT repository::
$ git clone git@github.com:giampaolo/psutil.git
- install system deps (see `install instructions <https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/INSTALL.rst>`__).
- install development deps; these are useful for running tests (e.g. mock,
unittest2), building doc (e.g. sphinx), running linters (flake8), etc. ::
$ make setup-dev-env
- bear in mind that ``make`` (see `Makefile <https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/Makefile>`_)
is the designated tool to run tests, build etc. and that it is also available
on Windows (see `make.bat <https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/make.bat>`_).
- (UNIX only) run ``make install-git-hooks``: this will reject your commit
if python code is not PEP8 compliant.
- run ``make test`` to run tests.
============
Coding style
============
- python code strictly follows `PEP 8 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>`_
styling guides and this is enforced by ``make install-git-hooks``.
- C code strictly follows `PEP 7 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0007/>`_
styling guides.
========
Makefile
========
Some useful make commands::
$ make install # install
$ make test # run all tests
$ make test-memleaks # run memory leak tests
$ make coverage # run test coverage
$ make flake8 # run PEP8 linter
====================
Adding a new feature
====================
Usually the files involved when adding a new functionality are:
.. code-block:: plain
psutil/__init__.py # main psutil namespace
psutil/_ps{platform}.py # python platform wrapper
psutil/_psutil_{platform}.c # C platform extension
psutil/_psutil_{platform}.h # C header file
psutil/tests/test_process|system.py # main test suite
psutil/tests/test_{platform}.py # platform specific test suite
Typical process occurring when adding a new functionality (API):
- define the new function in ``psutil/__init__.py``.
- write the platform specific implementation in ``psutil/_ps{platform}.py``
(e.g. ``psutil/_pslinux.py``).
- if the change requires C, write the C implementation in
``psutil/_psutil_{platform}.c`` (e.g. ``psutil/_psutil_linux.c``).
- write a generic test in ``psutil/tests/test_system.py`` or
``psutil/tests/test_process.py``.
- if possible, write a cross platform test in
``psutil/tests/test_{platform}.py`` (e.g. ``test_linux.py``).
- update doc in ``doc/index.py``.
- update ``HISTORY.rst``.
- update ``README.rst`` (if necessary).
- make a pull request.
======================
Continuous integration
======================
All of the services listed below are automatically run on ``git push``.
Unit tests
----------
Tests are automatically run for every GIT push on **Linux**, **OSX** and
**Windows** by using:
- `Travis <https://travis-ci.org/giampaolo/psutil>`_ (Linux, OSX)
- `Appveyor <https://ci.appveyor.com/project/giampaolo/psutil>`_ (Windows)
Test files controlling these are
`.travis.yml <https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/.travis.yml>`_
and
`appveyor.yml <https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/appveyor.yml>`_.
Both services run psutil test suite against all supported python version
(2.6 - 3.5).
Two icons in the home page (README) always show the build status:
.. image:: https://api.travis-ci.org/giampaolo/psutil.png?branch=master
:target: https://travis-ci.org/giampaolo/psutil
:alt: Linux tests (Travis)
.. image:: https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/qdwvw7v1t915ywr5/branch/master?svg=true
:target: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/giampaolo/psutil
:alt: Windows tests (Appveyor)
OSX, FreeBSD and Solaris are currently tested manually (sigh!).
Test coverage
-------------
Test coverage is provided by `coveralls.io <https://coveralls.io/github/giampaolo/psutil>`_,
it is controlled via `.travis.yml <https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/.travis.yml>`_
and it is updated on every git push.
An icon in the home page (README) always shows the last coverage percentage:
.. image:: https://coveralls.io/repos/giampaolo/psutil/badge.svg?branch=master&service=github
:target: https://coveralls.io/github/giampaolo/psutil?branch=master
:alt: Test coverage (coverall.io)
=============
Documentation
=============
- doc source code is written in a single file: `/docs/index.rst <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/giampaolo/psutil/master/docs/index.rst>`_.
- it uses `RsT syntax <http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html>`_
and it's built with `sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/>`_.
- doc can be built with ``make setup-dev-env; cd docs; make html``.
- public is hosted on http://pythonhosted.org/psutil/.
- it is uploaded on every new release with ``make upload-doc``.
=======================
Releasing a new version
=======================
These are note for myself (Giampaolo):
- make sure all tests pass and all builds are green.
- upload source tarball on PYPI with ``make upload-src``.
- upload exe and wheel files for windows on PYPI with ``make upload-all``.
- upload updated doc on http://pythonhosted.org/psutil with ``make upload-doc``.
- GIT tag the new release with ``make git-tag-release``.
- post on psutil and python-announce mailing lists, twitter, g+, blog.
