About

This page contains some general information about this project, and recommendations about contributing.

Contributing

If you like this package, consider contributing! We welcome bug reports, examples that can be added to the documentation, or new feature proposals.

Below we list some conventions that we follow when contributing to this package. For specific guidelines on documentation see the JuliaReach Developer's Documentation.

Branches

Each pull request (PR) should be pushed in a new branch with the name of the author followed by a descriptive name, e.g. mforets/my_feature. If the branch is associated to a previous discussion in an issue, we use the name of the issue for easier lookup, e.g. mforets/7.

Unit testing and continuous integration (CI)

This project is synchronized with GitHub Actions such that each PR gets tested before merging (and the build is automatically triggered after each new commit). For the maintainability of this project, it is important to make all unit tests pass.

To run the unit tests locally, you can do:

julia> using Pkg

julia> Pkg.test("CarlemanLinearization")

We also advise adding new unit tests when adding new features to ensure long-term support of your contributions.

Contributing to the documentation

This documentation is written in Markdown, and it relies on Documenter.jl to produce the HTML layout. To build the documentation, run make.jl:

$ julia --color=yes docs/make.jl
