You can also start out by forking https://bitbucket.org/conservancy/kallithea

on Bitbucket_ and create a local clone of your own fork.

Running tests

-------------

After finishing your changes make sure all tests pass cleanly. You can run

the testsuite running ``nosetests`` from the project root, or if you use tox

run ``tox`` for python2.6-2.7 with multiple database test.

When using `nosetests`, the `test.ini` file is used with an SQLite database. Edit

this file to change your testing enviroment.

It is possible to avoid recreating the full test database on each invocation of

the tests, thus eliminating the initial delay. To achieve this, run the tests as::

    paster serve test.ini --pid-file=test.pid --daemon

    KALLITHEA_WHOOSH_TEST_DISABLE=1 KALLITHEA_NO_TMP_PATH=1 nosetests

    kill -9 $(cat test.pid)

You can run individual tests by specifying their path as argument to nosetests.

Coding/contribution guidelines

------------------------------

Kallithea is GPLv3 and we assume all contributions are made by the

committer/contributor and under GPLv3 unless explicitly stated. We do care a

lot about preservation of copyright and license information for existing code

that is brought into the project.

We don't have a formal coding/formatting standard. We are currently using a mix

of Mercurial (http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/CodingStyle), pep8, and

consistency with existing code. Run whitespacecleanup.sh to avoid stupid

whitespace noise in your patches.

We support both Python 2.6.x and 2.7.x and nothing else. For now we don't care

about Python 3 compatibility.

We try to support the most common modern web browsers. IE8 is still supported

to the extent it is feasible but we may stop supporting it very soon.

We primarily support Linux and OS X on the server side but Windows should also work.

Html templates should use 2 spaces for indentation ... but be pragmatic. We

should use templates cleverly and avoid duplication. We should use reasonable
