Get Started!¶

Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up partypy for local development.

Fork the partypy repo on GitHub.

Clone your fork locally:

$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/partypy.git

Install your local copy (it is recommended to do this with a virtual environment). The method of installation will depend on the packaging library being used. For example, if setuptools is being used (a setup.py file is present), install partypy with:
```
$ python setup.py install
```
If poetry is being used (poetry.lock and pyproject.toml files are present), install partypy with:
```
$ poetry install
```
Create a branch for local development and make your changes locally::
```
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
```
When you’re done making changes, check that your changes conform to any code formatting requirements and pass any tests.

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

Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines¶

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

The pull request should include additional tests if appropriate.
If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated.
The pull request should work for all currently supported operating systems and versions of Python.
