Accessing the project

First clone the project:

git clone https://github.com/IBM/unitxt.git

Then, navigate to the project directory:

cd unitxt

Setting up the project

First, create a virtual environment:

python -m venv unitxt-venv

Then, activate the virtual environment:

source unitxt-venv/bin/activate

If the above command does not work because the bin directory does not exist, use this instead:

source unitxt-venv/Scripts/activate

Then, install the project:

pip install -e ".[dev]"

Running pre-commit before committing

First, install the pre-commit hooks:

pre-commit install

To run pre-commit before committing:

pre-commit run --all-files

Or simply run:

make pre-commit

This will run the pre-commit hooks on all files.

The pre-commit hooks will:

1. Check for any linting errors
2. Check for any formatting errors
3. Check for any security vulnerabilities
4. Check for spelling errors
5. Verify you used relative imports inside src/ directory
6. Verify you used library imports outside src/ directory

Running Tests

First, install the project with the test dependencies:

pip install -e ".[tests]"

To run a specific test:

python -m unittest tests.test_<module>

To run all the tests:

python -m unittest

Git

Legal

We have tried to make it as easy as possible to make contributions. This applies to how we handle the legal aspects of contribution. We use the same approach - the Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 (DCO) - that the Linux® Kernel community uses to manage code contributions.

We simply ask that when submitting a patch for review, the developer must include a sign-off statement in the commit message.

Here is an example Signed-off-by line, which indicates that the submitter accepts the DCO:

Signed-off-by: John Doe john.doe@example.com You can include this automatically when you commit a change to your local git repository using the following command:

git commit -s

Commit

Always commit with a good commit message and sign off:

Example:

git commit -s

Push

Push into a new branch and open a PR.

Example:

git push origin main:<my-new-branch-name>

Merge your PR to main

Use squash and merge to merge your PR to main.
