Contribution guidelines

Contributing to this project should be as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:

  • Reporting a bug
  • Discussing the current state of the code
  • Submitting a fix
  • Proposing new features

Github is used for everything

Github is used to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.

Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase.

  1. Start by opening a new issue (if your PR doesn't reference an already existing one), where proposed changes can be discussed
  2. Fork the repo and create your branch from master.
  3. If you've changed something, update the documentation.
  4. Make sure your code lints (using black).
  5. Test you contribution.
  6. Issue that pull request!

Any contributions you make will be under the MIT Software License

In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same MIT License that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.

Report bugs using Github's issues

GitHub issues are used to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue; it's that easy!

Write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code

Great Bug Reports tend to have:

  • A quick summary and/or background
  • Steps to reproduce
    • Be specific!
    • Give sample code if you can.
  • What you expected would happen
  • What actually happens
  • Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)

People love thorough bug reports. I'm not even kidding.

Request new features using Github's issues

Github issues are also used to track feature requests. Same as with bug repors, request new features by opening a new issue.

Use a Consistent Coding Style

Use black and prettier to make sure the code follows the style.

Or use the pre-commit settings implemented in this repository (see deicated section below).

Use Semantic Release commit and branch naming conventions

This component uses Semantic Release to automate releases.

Read and follow all the naming conventions outlined in their docs. Check out already existing commits and pull requests for guidance.

Test your code modification

This custom component is based on integration_blueprint template.

It comes with development environment in a container, easy to launch if you use Visual Studio Code. With this container you will have a stand alone Home Assistant instance running and already configured with the included .devcontainer/configuration.yaml file.

You can use the pre-commit settings implemented in this repository to have linting tool checking your contributions (see deicated section below).

You should also verify that existing tests are still working and you are encouraged to add new ones. You can run the tests using the following commands from the root folder:

# Create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
# Install requirements
pip install -r requirements_test.txt
# Run tests and get a summary of successes/failures and code coverage
pytest --durations=10 --cov-report term-missing --cov=custom_components.vaillant_vsmart tests

If any of the tests fail, make the necessary changes to the tests as part of your changes to the integration.

Pre-commit

You can use the pre-commit settings included in the repostory to have code style and linting checks.

With pre-commit tool already installed, activate the settings of the repository:

$ pre-commit install

Now the pre-commit tests will be done every time you commit.

You can run the tests on all repository file with the command:

$ pre-commit run --all-files
