How to Get Your Change Into Ryu
*******************************
Submitting a change
===================
Send patches to ryu-devel@lists.sourceforge.net. Please don't use 'pull
request' on github. We expect you to send a patch in Linux kernel
development style. If you are not familiar with it, please read the
following document:
http://lxr.linux.no/source/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
Please check your changes with pep8 and run unittests to make sure
that they don't break the existing features. The following command
does both for you:
fujita@rose:~/git/ryu$ ./run_tests.sh
Of course, you are encouraged to add unittests when you add new
features (it's not a must though).
Python version and libraries
============================
* Python 2.6+
As RHEL 6 adopted python 2.6, features only for 2.7+ should be avoided.
* standard library + widely used library
Basically widely used == OpenStack adopted
As usual there are exceptions. gevents. Or python binding library for other
component.
Coding style guide
==================
* pep8
As python is used, PEP8 is would be hopefully mandatory for
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/
* pylint
Although pylint is useful for finding bugs, but pylint score not very
important for now because we're still at early development stage.
* Google python style guide is very helpful

* JSON files
Ryu source tree has JSON files under ryu/tests/unit/ofproto/json.
They are used by unit tests. To make patches easier to read,
they are normalized using tools/normalize_json.py. Please re-run
the script before committing changes to these JSON files.
