Does not appear to require any changes to the actual library code, only to the tests Jython 2.7 does not have virtualenv support yet, so it can't play with tox. Once that support comes through, .travis.yml should be able to be returned to its former elegance - Ignore Jython py.class files - Run tests with Jython on Travis - Use threading instead of multiprocessing, because Jython does not have a multiprocessing module - Fix utf encoding specification - Apparently Jython is more finicky about the formatting of this - Accommodate Java time precision in middleware tests - Java does not do timestamps with better than ms precision Closes #458

## Contributing
|
|
|
|
Kurt Griffiths (kgriffs) is the creator and current maintainer of the Falcon framework. Pull requests are always welcome.
|
|
|
|
Before submitting a pull request, please ensure you have added or updated tests as appropriate, and that all existing tests still pass with your changes on both Python 2 and Python 3. Please also ensure that your coding style follows PEP 8 and doesn't cause pyflakes to complain.
|
|
|
|
You can check all this by running the following from within the falcon project directory (requires Python 2.7 and Python 3.3 to be installed on your system):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ tox -e py27,py33,pep8
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Code style rules
|
|
|
|
* Docstrings are required for classes, attributes, methods, and functions.
|
|
* Docstrings should utilize the [napolean style][docstrings] in order to make them read well, regardless of whether they are viewed through `help()` or on [Read the Docs][rtd].
|
|
* Please try to be consistent with the way existing docstrings are formatted. In particular, note the use of single vs. double backticks as follows:
|
|
* Double backticks
|
|
* Inline code
|
|
* Variables
|
|
* Types
|
|
* Decorators
|
|
* Single backticks
|
|
* Methods
|
|
* Params
|
|
* Attributes
|
|
* Format non-trivial comments using your GitHub nick and one of these prefixes:
|
|
* TODO(riker): Damage report!
|
|
* NOTE(riker): Well, that's certainly good to know.
|
|
* PERF(riker): Travel time to the nearest starbase?
|
|
* APPSEC(riker): In all trust, there is the possibility for betrayal.
|
|
* When catching exceptions, name the variable `ex`.
|
|
* Use whitespace to separate logical blocks of code and to improve readability.
|
|
* No single-character variable names except for trivial indexes when looping,
|
|
or in mathematical expressions implementing well-known formulas.
|
|
* Heavily document code that is especially complex and/or clever.
|
|
* When in doubt, optimize for readability.
|
|

### Commit Message Format
|
|
|
|
Falcon's commit message format uses [AngularJS's style guide][ajs], reproduced here for convenience, with some minor edits for clarity.
|
|
|
|
Each commit message consists of a **header**, a **body** and a **footer**. The header has a special format that includes a **type**, a **scope** and a **subject**:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<type>(<scope>): <subject>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
<body>
|
|
<BLANK LINE>
|
|
<footer>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
No line may exceed 100 characters. This makes it easier to read the message on GitHub as well as in various git tools.
|
|
|
|
##### Type
|
|
Must be one of the following:
|
|
|
|
* **feat**: A new feature
|
|
* **fix**: A bug fix
|
|
* **docs**: Documentation only changes
|
|
* **style**: Changes that do not affect the meaning of the code (white-space, formatting, missing semi-colons, etc)
|
|
* **refactor**: A code change that neither fixes a bug or adds a feature
|
|
* **perf**: A code change that improves performance
|
|
* **test**: Adding missing tests
|
|
* **chore**: Changes to the build process or auxiliary tools and libraries such as documentation generation
|
|
|
|
##### Scope
|
|
The scope could be anything specifying place of the commit change. For example: `$location`, `$browser`, `$compile`, `$rootScope`, `ngHref`, `ngClick`, `ngView`, etc...
|
|
|
|
##### Subject
|
|
The subject contains succinct description of the change:
|
|
|
|
* use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"
|
|
* don't capitalize first letter
|
|
* no dot (.) at the end
|
|
|
|
##### Body
|
|
Just as in the **subject**, use the imperative, present tense: "change" not "changed" nor "changes"The body should include the motivation for the change and contrast this with previous behavior.
|
|
|
|
##### Footer
|
|
The footer should contain any information about **Breaking Changes** and is also the place to reference GitHub issues that this commit **Closes**.
|
|
|
|
### Running tests against Jython
|
|
In addition to the tests run with tox against cpython, cython, and pypy versions, Travis runs tests against jython 2.7 outside of tox. If you need to run these tests locally, do the following:
|
|
* Install JDK 7 or better
|
|
* run `travis_scripts/install_jython2.7.sh` -- this will install jython at `~/jython`
|
|
* Install testing requirements `~/jython/bin/pip install -r tools/test-requires`
|
|
* May need to set `export JYTHON_HOME=~/jython` first
|
|
* Run tests `~/jython/bin/nosetests`
|
|
|
|
Note: coverage does not support Jython, so the coverage tests will fail.
