Contributing to proxy.py
This document describes how contributors can participate and iterate quickly while maintaining the proxy.py
project standards and guidelines.
Basic Guidelines
- Your pull request should NOT introduce any external dependency.
- It is OK to use external dependencies within plugins.
Environment Setup
Contributors must start proxy.py
from source to verify and develop new features / fixes. See Run proxy.py from command line using repo source for usage instructions.
On macOS
you must install Python
using pyenv
, as Python
installed via homebrew
tends to be problematic. See linked thread for more details.
Setup Git Hooks
You SHOULD NOT avoid these steps. Git hooks will help catch test or linting errors locally without pushing to upstream. This will save you a lot of time and allow you to contribute and iterate faster.
Pre-commit hook ensures tests are passing.
cd /path/to/proxy.py
ln -s $(PWD)/git-pre-commit .git/hooks/pre-commit
Pre-push hook ensures lint and tests are passing.
cd /path/to/proxy.py
ln -s $(PWD)/git-pre-push .git/hooks/pre-push
Sending a Pull Request
All pull requests are tested using GitHub actions.
See GitHub workflow for list of workflows.
Communication
During the process of PR review, sometimes, you may get asked to update certain project configs. Example, a change in code introduced via your PR will result in a redundant lint guard. So we must make corresponding changes to ensure project health.
It's highly recommended that you participate in maintaining a high code-quality standard. For any reason, if you are unable to address the requested changes, please communicate the same to the reviewer.
Thank you!!!
