Developing
A typical development workflow is:
- Install project requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
- Install additional testing requirements:
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
- Write helpful code and tests.
- Verify code style:
./scripts/lint.sh
- Run test suite:
pytest arviz/tests
- Make a pull request.
There is also a Dockerfile which helps for isolating build problems and local development.
- Install Docker for your operating system
- Clone this repo,
- Run
./scripts/container.sh --build
This will build a local image with the tag arviz
.
After building the image tests can be executing by running
docker run arviz bash pytest arviz/tests
An interactive shell can be started by running
docker run -it arviz /bin/bash
The correct conda environment will be activated automatically.
