# Contributing

|
|
|
First off, thanks for taking the time to contribute!
|
|
|
|
All contributions that improve Vorta for everyone are welcome. Before coding a new feature it's usually best to discuss it with other users under [Issues](https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/issues). Once everything is clear, follow the instructions below to
|
|
|
|
## Local Development Setup
|
|
|
|
Clone the latest version of this repo
|
|
```
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Install in development/editable mode while in the repo root:
|
|
```
|
|
$ pip install -e .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Install additional developer packages (pytest, tox, pyinstaller):
|
|
```
|
|
pip install -r requirements.d/dev.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then run as Python script. Any changes from your source folder should be reflected.
|
|
```
|
|
$ vorta
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Working on the GUI
|
|
Qt Creator is used to edit views. Install from [their site](https://www.qt.io/download) or using Homebrew and then open the .ui files in `vorta/UI` with Qt Creator:
|
|
```
|
|
$ brew cask install qt-creator
|
|
$ brew install qt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Building Binaries
|
|
To build a macOS app package:
|
|
- add `Sparkle.framework` from [here](https://github.com/sparkle-project/Sparkle) and `borg` from [here](https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/releases) in `bin/macosx64`
|
|
- then uncomment or change the Apple signing profile to be used in `Makefile`
|
|
- finally run to `$ make Vorta.app` to build the app into the `dist` folder.
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
Tests are in the folder `/tests`. Testing happens at the level of UI components. Calls to `borg` are mocked and can be replaced with some example json-output. To run tests:
|
|
```
|
|
$ pytest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To test for style errors:
|
|
```
|
|
$ flake8
|
|
```
