Contributing

You can contribute to the project in a number of ways. Code is always good, bugs are interesting but tests make your famous!

Bug reports or feature enhancements that include a test are given preferential treatment. So instead of voting for an issue, write a test.

Code

  1. Fork the repository on Bitbucket .
  2. Make a virtualenv, clone the repos, install the deps from pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
  3. Write any new tests needed and ensure existing tests continue to pass without modification.
  1. Setup CI testing on drone.io for your Fork. See current script .
  2. Some tests can not be run against the public SFTP server, as it is read-only, to run tests that put or modify, you will need to setup an ssh daemon on your local machine and create a user: test with password of test1357 – Tests that can only be run locally are skipped using the @skip_if_ci decorator
  1. Ensure that your name is added to the end of the Authors file using the format Name <email@domain.com> (url), where the (url) portion is optional.
  2. Submit a Pull Request to the project on Bitbucket.
