Get Started!
Local Development
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up the PyTriton
for local development.
- Fork the
PyTriton
repo on GitHub. -
Clone your fork locally:
-
Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, here's how you set up your fork for local development:
If you do not use the virtualenvwrapper package, you can initialize a virtual environment using the pure Python command:
Once the virtualenv is activated, install the development dependencies:
-
Extract Triton Server to your environment so you can debug PyTriton while serving some models on Triton:
-
Install pre-commit hooks:
-
Create a branch for local development:
Now you can make your changes locally.
-
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass linters and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:
$ make lint # will run, among others, flake8 and pytype linters $ make test # will run a test on your current virtualenv
To run a subset of tests:
-
Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
-
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Pull Request Guidelines
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, you should update the docs. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring and add the feature to the list in README.md.
Documentation
Add/update docstrings as defined in Google Style Guide.
