General
|
|
-------
|
|
- Optimize for readability; whitespace is your friend.
|
|
- Put two newlines between top-level code (funcs, classes, etc.)
|
|
- Put one newline between methods in classes and anywhere else.
|
|
- Use blank lines to group related logic.
|
|
- Never write ``except:`` (use ``except Exception:`` instead, at
|
|
the very least).
|
|
- All classes must inherit from ``object`` (explicitly).
|
|
- Use single-quotes for strings unless the string contains a
|
|
single-quote.
|
|
- Use the double-quote character for blockquotes (``"""``, not ``'''``)
|
|
- USE_ALL_CAPS_FOR_GLOBAL_CONSTANTS
|
|
|
|
Comments
|
|
--------
|
|
- In general use comments as "memory pegs" for those coming after you up
|
|
the trail.
|
|
- Guide the reader though long functions with a comments introducing
|
|
different sections of the code.
|
|
- Choose clean, descriptive names for functions and variables to make
|
|
them self-documenting.
|
|
- Include your name with TODOs as in ``# TODO(termie): blah blah...``.
|
|
- Add ``# NOTE(termie): blah blah...`` comments to clarify your intent, or
|
|
to explain a tricky algorithm, when it isn't obvious from just reading
|
|
the code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Identifiers
|
|
-----------
|
|
- Do not give anything the same name as a built-in or reserved word.
|
|
- Don't use single characters in identifiers except in trivial loop variables and mathematical algorithms.
|
|
- Avoid abbreviations, especially if they are ambiguous or their meaning would not be immediately clear to the casual reader or newcomer.
|
|
|
|
Wrapping
|
|
--------
|
|
Wrap long lines by using Python's implied line continuation inside
|
|
parentheses, brackets and braces. Make sure to indent the continued
|
|
line appropriately. The preferred place to break around a binary
|
|
operator is after the operator, not before it.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
class Rectangle(Blob):
|
|
|
|
def __init__(self, width, height,
|
|
color='black', emphasis=None, highlight=0):
|
|
|
|
# More indentation included to distinguish this from the rest.
|
|
if (width == 0 and height == 0 and
|
|
color == 'red' and emphasis == 'strong' or
|
|
highlight > 100):
|
|
raise ValueError('sorry, you lose')
|
|
|
|
if width == 0 and height == 0 and (color == 'red' or
|
|
emphasis is None):
|
|
raise ValueError("I don't think so -- values are %s, %s" %
|
|
(width, height))
|
|
|
|
msg = ('this is a very long string that goes on and on and on and'
|
|
'on and on and on...')
|
|
|
|
super(Rectangle, self).__init__(width, height,
|
|
color, emphasis, highlight)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Imports
|
|
-------
|
|
- Only modules may be imported
|
|
- Do not make relative imports
|
|
- Order your imports by the full module path
|
|
- Classes and functions may be hoisted into a package namespace, via __init__ files, with some discretion.
|
|
- Organize your imports according to the template given below
|
|
|
|
Template::
|
|
|
|
{{stdlib imports in human alphabetical order}}
|
|
\n
|
|
{{third-party lib imports in human alphabetical order}}
|
|
\n
|
|
{{zaqar imports in human alphabetical order}}
|
|
\n
|
|
\n
|
|
{{begin your code}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Human Alphabetical Order Examples
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
import logging
|
|
import time
|
|
import unittest
|
|
|
|
import eventlet
|
|
|
|
import zaqar.common
|
|
from zaqar import test
|
|
import zaqar.transport
|
|
|
|
|
|
More Import Examples
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
**INCORRECT** ::
|
|
|
|
import zaqar.transport.wsgi as wsgi
|
|
|
|
**CORRECT** ::
|
|
|
|
from zaqar.transport import wsgi
|
|
|
|
Docstrings
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Docstrings are required for all functions and methods.
|
|
|
|
Docstrings should ONLY use triple-double-quotes (``"""``)
|
|
|
|
Single-line docstrings should NEVER have extraneous whitespace
|
|
between enclosing triple-double-quotes.
|
|
|
|
**INCORRECT** ::
|
|
|
|
""" There is some whitespace between the enclosing quotes :( """
|
|
|
|
**CORRECT** ::
|
|
|
|
"""There is no whitespace between the enclosing quotes :)"""
|
|
|
|
Docstrings should document default values for named arguments
|
|
if they're not None
|
|
|
|
Docstrings that span more than one line should look like this:
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
"""Single-line summary, right after the opening triple-double-quote.
|
|
|
|
If you are going to describe parameters and return values, use Sphinx; the
|
|
appropriate syntax is as follows.
|
|
|
|
:param foo: the foo parameter
|
|
:param bar: (Default True) the bar parameter
|
|
:param foo_long_bar: the foo parameter description is very
|
|
long so we have to split it in multiple lines in order to
|
|
keey things ordered
|
|
:returns: return_type -- description of the return value
|
|
:returns: description of the return value
|
|
:raises: AttributeError, KeyError
|
|
"""
|
|
|
|
**DO NOT** leave an extra newline before the closing triple-double-quote.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dictionaries/Lists
|
|
------------------
|
|
If a dictionary (dict) or list object is longer than 80 characters, its items
|
|
should be split with newlines. Embedded iterables should have their items
|
|
indented. Additionally, the last item in the dictionary should have a trailing
|
|
comma. This increases readability and simplifies future diffs.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
my_dictionary = {
|
|
"image": {
|
|
"name": "Just a Snapshot",
|
|
"size": 2749573,
|
|
"properties": {
|
|
"user_id": 12,
|
|
"arch": "x86_64",
|
|
},
|
|
"things": [
|
|
"thing_one",
|
|
"thing_two",
|
|
],
|
|
"status": "ACTIVE",
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
Calling Methods
|
|
---------------
|
|
Calls to methods 80 characters or longer should format each argument with
|
|
newlines. This is not a requirement, but a guideline::
|
|
|
|
unnecessarily_long_function_name('string one',
|
|
'string two',
|
|
kwarg1=constants.ACTIVE,
|
|
kwarg2=['a', 'b', 'c'])
|
|
|
|
|
|
Rather than constructing parameters inline, it is better to break things up::
|
|
|
|
list_of_strings = [
|
|
'what_a_long_string',
|
|
'not as long',
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
dict_of_numbers = {
|
|
'one': 1,
|
|
'two': 2,
|
|
'twenty four': 24,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
object_one.call_a_method('string three',
|
|
'string four',
|
|
kwarg1=list_of_strings,
|
|
kwarg2=dict_of_numbers)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Internationalization (i18n) Strings
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
In order to support multiple languages, we have a mechanism to support
|
|
automatic translations of exception and log strings.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
msg = _("An error occurred")
|
|
|
|
If you have a variable to place within the string, first internationalize the
|
|
template string then do the replacement.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
msg = _("Missing parameter: %s") % ("flavor",)
|
|
LOG.error(msg)
|
|
|
|
If you have multiple variables to place in the string, use keyword parameters.
|
|
This helps our translators reorder parameters when needed.
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
msg = _("The server with id %(s_id)s has no key %(m_key)s")
|
|
LOG.error(msg % {"s_id": "1234", "m_key": "imageId"})
|
|
|
|
An important exception to this rule is with regards to exceptions:
|
|
exceptions should NOT be marked as translatable. See `No Exceptions i18n`_
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
.. _No Exceptions i18n: https://trello.com/card/exceptions-should-not-be-marked-as-translatable/511403287d138cd6200078e0/243
|
|
|
|
Creating Unit Tests
|
|
-------------------
|
|
For every any change, unit tests should be created that both test and
|
|
(implicitly) document the usage of said feature. If submitting a patch for a
|
|
bug that had no unit test, a new passing unit test should be added. If a
|
|
submitted bug fix does have a unit test, be sure to add a new one that fails
|
|
without the patch and passes with the patch.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: 100% coverage is required
|
|
|
|
openstack-common
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
A number of modules from openstack-common are imported into the project.
|
|
|
|
These modules are "incubating" in openstack-common and are kept in sync
|
|
with the help of openstack-common's update.py script. See:
|
|
|
|
http://wiki.openstack.org/CommonLibrary#Incubation
|
|
|
|
The copy of the code should never be directly modified here. Please
|
|
always update openstack-common first and then run the script to copy
|
|
the changes across.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Logging
|
|
-------
|
|
Use __name__ as the name of your logger and name your module-level logger
|
|
objects 'LOG'::
|
|
|
|
LOG = logging.getLogger(__name__)
|
