## Submitting PRs
|
||||
|
||||
Please follow the provided PR template when writing a description for your changes.
|
||||
|
||||
Do not take criticism personally. When you get feedback, it is about your work,
|
||||
not your character, personality, etc. Keep in mind we all want to make the project better.
|
||||
|
||||
When something is not clear, please ask questions to clear things up.
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to introduce a big architectural changes or do a refactoring
|
||||
either in the codebase or the development tools, please open an issue with a proposal
|
||||
first. This way we can think together about the problem and probably come up
|
||||
with a better solution.
|
||||
|
||||
## Coding conventions and guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
### Commit messages
|
||||
|
||||
* Always write descriptive commit messages ("fix bug" is not acceptable).
|
||||
* Use the present tense ("Add feature" not "Added feature").
|
||||
* Use the imperative mood ("Move cursor to..." not "Moves cursor to...").
|
||||
* Limit the first line to 72 characters or less.
|
||||
* Include the number of the issue you are fixing.
|
||||
|
||||
### Coding guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
As a Python project, we must follow [PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) and [PEP 20](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0020/) guidelines.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, follow the Clean code conventions. The most important
|
||||
in this project are the following rules:
|
||||
|
||||
* Simpler is better. [KISS principle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle)
|
||||
* Be consistent.
|
||||
* Every function must do one thing.
|
||||
* Use descriptive names for functions and variables.
|
||||
* Always look for the root cause.
|
||||
* Keep configurable data high level.
|
||||
* Avoid negative conditionals.
|
||||
* Prefer fewer arguments.
|
||||
* Do not add obvious comment to code.
|
||||
* Do not comment out code, just delete lines.
