How to Contribute

We'd love to accept your patches and contributions to this project. There are just a few small guidelines you need to follow.

Contributor License Agreement

Contributions to this project must be accompanied by a Contributor License Agreement. You (or your employer) retain the copyright to your contribution, this simply gives us permission to use and redistribute your contributions as part of the project. Head over to https://cla.developers.google.com/ to see your current agreements on file or to sign a new one.

You generally only need to submit a CLA once, so if you've already submitted one (even if it was for a different project), you probably don't need to do it again.

Code reviews

All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We use GitHub pull requests for this purpose. Consult GitHub Help for more information on using pull requests.

Using pre-commit

To enforce style and coding standards, this repository uses pre-commit. To get started:

pip install pre-commit
pre-commit install

Run pre-commit on all files

By default, pre-commit will run its checks on files that have been modified in a commit. To instead run it on all files, use this command:

$ pre-commit run --all-files

# Alternatively
$ pre-commit run -a

Skip the pre-commit checks

Run the following command:

$ git commit --no-verify

Be aware the pre-commit checks are run on CI, so any violations will need to be fixed before code gets merged.
