PFERD Development Guide
PFERD is packaged following the Python Packaging User Guide (in particular this and this guide).
Setting up a dev environment
The use of venv is recommended. To initially set up a development environment, run these commands in the same directory as this file:
$ python -m venv .venv
$ . .venv/bin/activate
$ ./scripts/setup
The setup script installs a few required dependencies and tools. It also
installs PFERD via pip install --editable .
, which means that you can just run
pferd
as if it was installed normally. Since PFERD was installed with
--editable
, there is no need to re-run pip install
when the source code is
changed.
For more details, see this part of the Python Tutorial and this section on "development mode".
Checking and formatting the code
To run a set of checks against the code, run ./scripts/check
in the repo's
root directory. This script will run a few tools installed by ./scripts/setup
against the entire project.
To format the code, run ./scripts/format
in the repo's root directory.
Before committing changes, please make sure the checks return no warnings and the code is formatted.
