Contributing ============ The source code is available at http://github.com/johnpaulett/python-hl7 Please fork and issue pull requests. Generally any changes, bug fixes, or new features should be accompanied by corresponding tests in our test suite. Testing -------- The test suite is located in :file:`tests/` and can be run several ways. It is recommended to run the full `tox `_ suite so that all supported Python versions are tested and the documentation is built and tested. We provide a :file:`Makefile` to create a virtualenv, install tox, and run tox:: $ make tests py27: commands succeeded py26: commands succeeded docs: commands succeeded congratulations :) To run the test suite with a specific python interpreter:: python setup.py test To documentation is built by tox, but you can manually build via:: $ make docs ... Doctest summary =============== 23 tests 0 failures in tests 0 failures in setup code ... Formatting ---------- python-hl7 has converted to use `black ` to enforce a coding style. To automatically format using black and isort:: $ make format It is also recommended to run the flake8 checks for PEP8 and PyFlake violations. Commits should be free of warnings:: $ make lint
