Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every
little bit helps, and credit will always be given.
You can contribute in many ways:
Types of Contributions
----------------------
Report Bugs
~~~~~~~~~~~
Report bugs at https://github.com/astropy/specutils/issues.
If you are reporting a bug, please include:
* Your operating system name and version.
* Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.
* Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.
Fix Bugs
~~~~~~~~
Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug"
and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
Implement Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "enhancement"
and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
Write Documentation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Specutils could always use more documentation, whether as part of the
official specutils docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts,
articles, and such.
Submit Feedback
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/astropy/specutils/issues.
If you are proposing a feature:
* Explain in detail how it would work.
* Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
* Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions
are welcome.
Get Started!
------------
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up :ref:`specutils <specutils>` for local development.
1. Fork the :ref:`specutils <specutils>` repo on GitHub.
2. Clone your fork locally::
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/specutils.git
3. Install your local copy, preferably into some sort of virtual environment using your
preferred environment manager. For example, using conda::
$ conda create --name specutils-dev python=3.11 pip
$ conda activate specutils-dev
$ cd specutils/
$ pip install -e .'[test]'
4. Create a branch for local development::
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
5. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests::
$ tox -e codestyle
$ pytest
The tests will run on other Python versions automatically on opening a pull request,
but if you want to attempt to run the full test suite locally before doing so you can
run ``tox``::
$ tox
6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub::
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
$ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Pull Request Guidelines
-----------------------
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
1. The pull request should include tests.
2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put
your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the
feature to the list in README.rst.
3. The pull request should work for Python 3.10 - 3.12, and for PyPy. Check
that all required tests passed in the Github Actions CI section at the
bottom of your pull request.
Tips
----
To run a subset of the tests, you can call ``pytest`` with a specific file
provided as input. For example. from the base directory of a cloned
``specutils`` repository, you could run::
$ pytest specutils/tests/test_regions.py
You can also run a specific test defined within a file using the ``-k`` flag,
for example::
$ pytest specutils/tests/test_regions.py -k test_invert
