Contributing

The code repository is located at OpenStack. Please go there if you want to check it out:

git clone https://github.com/openstack/tuskar-ui.git

The list of bugs and blueprints is on Launchpad:

We use OpenStack's Gerrit for the code contributions:

https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/tuskar-ui,n,z

and we follow the OpenStack Gerrit Workflow.

If you're interested in the code, here are some key places to start:

• tuskar_ui/api.py

  - This file contains all the API calls made to the Tuskar API (through python-tuskarclient).

• tuskar_ui/infrastructure

  • The Tuskar UI code is contained within this directory.

Running tests

There are several ways to run tests for tuskar-ui.

Using tox:

This is the easiest way to run tests. When run, tox installs dependencies, prepares the virtual python environment, then runs test commands. The gate tests in gerrit usually also use tox to run tests. For avaliable tox environments, see tox.ini.

By running run_tests.sh:

Tests can also be run using the run_tests.sh script, to see available options, run it with the --help option. It handles preparing the virtual environment and executing tests, but in contrast with tox, it does not install all dependencies, e.g. jshint must be installed before running the jshint testcase.

Manual tests:

To manually check tuskar-ui, it is possible to run a development server for tuskar-ui by running run_tests.sh --runserver.

To run the server with the settings used by the test environment: run_tests.sh --runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 --settings=tuskar_ui.test.settings
