rcx_tk developer documentation

If you're looking for user documentation, go here.

Package installation

To create a new environment, use the micromamba:

console micromamba create -n rcx-tk poetry micromamba activate rcx-tk To install all dependencies specified in the pyproject.toml file, use poetry:

console poetry install

A command line interface was also implemented using Click, so the package can be run by either using python3:

console python3 -m rcx_tk --method='' <path-to-input-data> <path-to-output-data>

or using poetry:

console poetry run rcx_tk --method='' <file-path-to-input-data> <file-path-to-output-data>

Running the tests

There are two ways to run tests.

The first way requires an activated virtual environment with the development tools installed:

shell pytest -v

The second is to use tox, which can be installed separately (e.g. with pip install tox), i.e. not necessarily inside the virtual environment you use for installing rcx_tk, but then builds the necessary virtual environments itself by simply running:

shell tox

Testing with tox allows for keeping the testing environment separate from your development environment. The development environment will typically accumulate (old) packages during development that interfere with testing; this problem is avoided by testing with tox.

Test coverage

In addition to just running the tests to see if they pass, they can be used for coverage statistics, i.e. to determine how much of the package's code is actually executed during tests. In an activated virtual environment with the development tools installed, inside the package directory, run:

shell coverage run

This runs tests and stores the result in a .coverage file. To see the results on the command line, run

shell coverage report

coverage can also generate output in HTML and other formats; see coverage help for more information.

Running linters locally

For linting and sorting imports we will use ruff. Running the linters requires an activated virtual environment with the development tools installed.

```shell

linter

ruff .

linter with automatic fixing

ruff . --fix ```

To fix readability of your code style you can use yapf.

You can enable automatic linting with ruff on commit by enabling the git hook from .githooks/pre-commit, like so:

shell git config --local core.hooksPath .githooks

Generating the API docs

shell cd docs make html

The documentation will be in docs/_build/html

If you do not have make use

shell sphinx-build -b html docs docs/_build/html

To find undocumented Python objects run

shell cd docs make coverage cat _build/coverage/python.txt

To test snippets in documentation run

shell cd docs make doctest

Versioning

Bumping the version across all files is done with bump-my-version, e.g.

shell poetry version major # bumps from e.g. 0.3.2 to 1.0.0 poetry version minor # bumps from e.g. 0.3.2 to 0.4.0 poetry version patch # bumps from e.g. 0.3.2 to 0.3.3

Making a release

This section describes how to make a release in 3 parts:

1. preparation
2. making a release on PyPI
3. making a release on GitHub

(1/3) Preparation

1. Update the (don't forget to update links at bottom of page)
2. Verify that the information in CITATION.cff is correct.
3. Make sure the version has been updated.
4. Run the unit tests with pytest -v

(2/3) PyPI

In a new terminal:

```shell

OPTIONAL: prepare a new directory with fresh git clone to ensure the release

has the state of origin/main branch

cd $(mktemp -d rcx_tk.XXXXXX) git clone git@github.com:RECETOX/rcx-tk . ```

Create and activate a new environment:

console micromamba create -n rcx-tk-pypi poetry micromamba activate rcx-tk-pypi

Create an account on PyPI.

In the Account settings, find the API tokens section and click on "Add API token". Copy your token.

Add your API token to Poetry:

console poetry config pypi-token.pypi your-api-token

Build your project:

console poetry build

Publish your package to PyPI:

console poetry publish

(3/3) GitHub

Don't forget to also make a release on GitHub. If your repository uses the GitHub-Zenodo integration this will also trigger Zenodo into making a snapshot of your repository and sticking a DOI on it.
