# Contributing | ||
# Contributing to the hpc-libs repository | ||
|
||
To make contributions to this charm, you'll need a working [development setup](https://juju.is/docs/sdk/dev-setup). | ||
Do you want to contribute to the hpc-libs charm libraries? You've come to | ||
the right place then! __Here is how you can get involved.__ | ||
|
||
You can create an environment for development with `tox`: | ||
Please take a moment to review this document so that the contribution | ||
process will be easy and effective for everyone. Also, please familiarise | ||
yourself with the [Juju SDK](https://juju.is/docs/sdk) as it will help you | ||
better understand how the charm libraries are put together. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
tox devenv -e integration | ||
source venv/bin/activate | ||
``` | ||
Following these guidelines helps you communicate that you respect the maintainers | ||
managing the libraries. In return, they will reciprocate that respect | ||
while addressing your issue or assessing your submitted changes and/or features. | ||
|
||
## Testing | ||
Have any questions? Feel free to ask them in the [Ubuntu High-Performance Computing | ||
Matrix chat](https://matrix.to/#/#hpc:ubuntu.com). | ||
|
||
This project uses `tox` for managing test environments. There are some pre-configured environments | ||
that can be used for linting and formatting code when you're preparing contributions to the charm: | ||
### Table of Contents | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
tox run -e format # update your code according to linting rules | ||
tox run -e lint # code style | ||
tox run -e static # static type checking | ||
tox run -e unit # unit tests | ||
tox run -e integration # integration tests | ||
tox # runs 'format', 'lint', 'static', and 'unit' environments | ||

## Build the charm | ||
## Using the issue tracker | ||
|
||
Build the charm in this git repository using: | ||
The issue tracker is the preferred way for tracking [bug reports](#bug-reports), [enhancement proposals](#enhancement-proposals), | ||
and [submitted pull requests](#pull-requests), but please follow these guidelines for the issue tracker: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
charmcraft pack | ||
``` | ||
* Please __do not__ use the issue tracker for personal issues and/or support requests. | ||
The [Discussions](#discussions) page is a better place to get help for personal support requests. | ||
|
||
<!-- You may want to include any contribution/style guidelines in this document> | ||
* Please __do not__ derail or troll issues. Keep the discussion on track and have respect for the other | ||
users/contributors of the hpc-libs charm libraries. | ||
|
||
* Please __do not__ post comments consisting solely of "+1", ":thumbsup:", or something similar. | ||
Use [GitHub's "reactions" feature](https://blog.github.com/2016-03-10-add-reactions-to-pull-requests-issues-and-comments/) | ||
instead. | ||
* The maintainers of the hpc-libs charm libraries reserve the right to delete comments | ||
that violate this rule. | ||
|
||
* Please __do not__ repost or reopen issues that have been closed. Please either | ||
submit a new issue or browser through previous issues. | ||
* The maintainers of the hpc-libs charm libraries reserve the right to delete issues | ||
that violate this rule. | ||
|
||
## Issues and Labels | ||
|
||
The issue tracker uses a variety of labels to help organize and identify issues. | ||
Here is a list of some of these labels, and how the maintainers of the repository use them: | ||
|
||
* `Type: Bug` - Issues reported in the source code that either produce errors or unexpected behavior. | ||
|
||
* `Status: Confirmed` - Issues marked `Type: Bug` that have be confirmed to be reproducible on a separate system. | ||
|
||
* `Type: Documentation` - Issues for improving or updating the documentation. | ||
Can also be used for pull requests. | ||
|
||
* `Type: Refactor` - Issues that pertain to improving the existing code base. | ||
|
||
* `Type: Idea Bank` - Issues that pertain to proposing potential improvements to the code base. | ||
|
||
* `Type: Enhancement` - Issues marked as an agreed upon enhancement to the code base. Can also be used for pull requests. | ||
|
||
* `Status: Help wanted` - Issues where we need help from the greater open source community to solve. | ||
|
||

||
## Bug Reports | ||
|
||
A bug is a *demonstrable problem* that is caused by errors in the hpc-libs charm libraries. | ||
Good bug reports make the charm libraries better, so | ||
thank you for taking the time to report issues! | ||
|
||
Guidelines for reporting bugs with the charm libraries: | ||
|
||
1. __Validate your issue__ — ensure that your issue is not being caused by either | ||
a semantic or syntactic error in your environment. | ||
|
||
2. __Use the GitHub issue search__ — check if the issue you are encountering has | ||
already been reported by someone else. | ||
|
||
3. __Check if the issue has already been fixed__ — try to reproduce your issue | ||
using the latest version of the charm library causing the problem. | ||
|
||
4. __Isolate the problem__ — the more pinpointed the issue with the charm libraries | ||
is, the easier it is to fix. | ||
|
||
A good bug report should not leave others needing to chase you for more information. | ||
Some common questions you should answer in your report include: | ||
|
||
* What is your current environment? | ||
* Were you able to reproduce the issue in another environment? | ||
* Which commands/actions/configuration options/etc produce the issue? | ||
* What was your expected outcome? | ||
|
||
Please try to be as detailed as possible in your report. All these details will help the | ||
maintainers quickly fix issues with the charm libraries. | ||
|
||
## Enhancement Proposals | ||
|
||
The Charmed HPC core developers may already know what they want to add to the hpc-libs charm libraries, | ||
but they are always open to new ideas and potential improvements. GitHub Discussions is | ||
a good place for discussing open-ended questions that pertain to the entire Charmed HPC | ||
project, but more focused enhancement proposal discussions can start within the issue | ||
tracker. | ||
|
||
Please note that not all proposals may be incorporated into the charm libraries. Also, please | ||
know that spamming the maintainers to incorporate something you want into the charm libraries | ||
will not improve the likelihood of being implemented; it may result in you receiving a | ||
temporary ban from the repository. | ||
|
||
## Pull Requests | ||
|
||
Good pull requests — patches, improvements, new features — | ||
are a huge help. Pull requests should remain focused and not contain commits not | ||
related to what you are contributing. | ||
|
||
__Ask first__ before embarking on any __significant__ pull request such as | ||
implementing new features, refactoring methods, or incorporating new libraries; | ||
otherwise, you risk spending a lot of time working on something that the Charmed HPC | ||
core developers may not want to merge into the hpc-libs charm libraries! For trivial changes, | ||
or contributions that do not require a large amount of time, you can go ahead and | ||
open a pull request. | ||
|
||
Adhering to the following process is the best way to get your contribution accepted into | ||
the charm libraries: | ||
|
||
1. [Fork](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/) the project, clone your fork, | ||
and configure the remotes: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
# Clone your fork of the repo into the current directory | ||
git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/hpc-libs.git | ||
|
||
# Navigate to the newly cloned directory | ||
cd hpc-libs | ||
|
||
# Assign the original repo to a remote called "upstream" | ||
git remote add upstream https://github.com/charmed-hpc/hpc-libs.git | ||
``` | ||
|
||
2. If you cloned a while ago, pull the latest changes from the upstream hpc-libs repository: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
git checkout main | ||
git pull upstream main | ||
``` | ||
|
||
3. Create a new topic branch (off the main project development branch) to | ||
contain your feature, change, or fix: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
git checkout -b <topic-branch-name> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
4. Ensure that your changes pass all tests: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
# Apply formatting standards to code. | ||
tox run -e fmt | ||
|
||
# Check code against coding style standards. | ||
tox run -e lint | ||
|
||
# Run static type checks. | ||
tox run -e static | ||
|
||
# Run unit tests. | ||
tox run -e unit | ||
|
||
# Run integration tests. | ||
tox run -e integration | ||
``` | ||
|
||
5. Commit your changes in logical chunks to your topic branch. | ||
|
||
Our project follows the | ||
[Conventional Commits specification, version 1.0.0](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/). | ||
You can use Git's | ||
[interactive rebase](https://help.github.com/articles/about-git-rebase/) feature to | ||
tidy up your commits before pushing them to your origin branch. | ||
6. Locally merge (or rebase) the upstream development branch into your topic branch: | ||
```bash | ||
git pull [--rebase] upstream main | ||
``` | ||
7. Push your topic branch up to your fork: | ||
```bash | ||
git push origin <topic-branch-name> | ||
``` | ||
8. [Open a Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests/) | ||
with a clear title and description against the `main` branch. | ||
## Discussions | ||
GitHub Discussions is a great place to connect with other Charmed HPC users to | ||
discuss potential enhancements, ask questions, and resolve issues. Charmed HPC users | ||
should remain respectful of each other. Discussion moderators reserve the right to | ||
suspend discussions and/or delete posts that do not follow this rule. | ||
## Code guidelines | ||
The following guidelines must be adhered to if you are writing code to be merged into the main code base: | ||
### Juju and charmed operators | ||
* Adhere to the operator development best practices outlined in the [operator development styleguide](https://juju.is/docs/sdk/styleguide). | ||
### Python | ||
* Adhere to the Python code style guidelines outlined in [Python Enhancement Proposal 8](https://pep8.org/). | ||
* Adhere to the Python docstring conventions outlined in | ||
[Python Enhancement Proposal 257](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/). | ||
* *Docstrings must follow the | ||
[Google docstring format](https://github.com/google/styleguide/blob/gh-pages/pyguide.md#38-comments-and-docstrings)*. | ||
