Cartopy is driven by a community of people all passionate about seeing cartopy flourish as a world class mapping package for Python. This page lists the guidelines for contributors which will help ease the process of getting your hard work accepted back into the cartopy repository.
- If you've not already got one, sign up for a GitHub account.
- Fork the Cartopy repository, create your new fix/feature branch, and start committing code. We broadly follow the gitwash guidelines.
- Remember to add appropriate documentation and tests to supplement any new or changed functionality.
- If you're not already on it (and would like to be), please add yourself to the contributors list (docs/source/contributors.rst)
- Push your branch to your fork of cartopy.
- Submit your pull request.
- Note that you will automatically be asked to sign the Contributor Licence Agreement (CLA), if you have not already done so.
- Sit back and wait for the core Cartopy development team to review your code.
