Contributing a plugin
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Details regarding how to write a plugin are explained in the Pelican `docs`_.
|
|
|
|
If you want to contribute, **please be sure** to read our general contributing
|
|
`guidelines`_ first. Then you can fork this repository, create a new branch,
|
|
make your changes, squash your commits, and issue your pull request from your
|
|
new branch (i.e., **not** the ``master`` branch).
|
|
|
|
Make sure that your plugin follows the structure below::
|
|
|
|
my_plugin
|
|
├── __init__.py
|
|
├── my_plugin.py
|
|
├── test_my_plugin.py
|
|
└── ReadMe.rst / ReadMe.md
|
|
|
|
``my_plugin.py`` is the actual plugin implementation. Include a brief
|
|
explanation of what the plugin does as a module docstring. Put any further
|
|
explanations and usage details into the ``ReadMe`` file.
|
|
|
|
``__init__.py`` should contain a single line with ``from .my_plugin import *``.
|
|
|
|
Place tests for your plugin in the same folder inside ``test_my_plugin.py``.
|
|
If you need content or templates in your tests, you can use the main
|
|
``test_data`` folder for that purpose.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Each plugin can contain a LICENSE file stating the license it's
|
|
released under. If there is an absence of LICENSE then it defaults to the
|
|
*GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 3*. Please refer to the ``LICENSE``
|
|
file for the full text of the license.
|
|
|
|
Before making your initial commit, please be sure to add an entry to the repo's
|
|
top-level ``ReadMe`` file, adding your plugin to the list (in alphabetical
|
|
order) and providing a brief description.
