OneBot could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official OneBot docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/thomwiggers/onebot/issues.
If you are proposing a feature:
- Explain in detail how it would work.
- Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
- Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :)
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up onebot for local development.
Fork the onebot repo on GitHub.
Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/onebot.git
Install your local copy into a virtualenv. We use uv for dependency management:
$ cd onebot/ $ uv sync
This will create a virtual environment and install all dependencies.
Create a branch for local development:
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass ruff formatting and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:
$ uv run ruff format . $ uv run tox
Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put
your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the
feature to the list in
README.rst. - The pull request should work for Python 3.11+. Check https://github.com/thomwiggers/onebot/actions and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.
- Don't forget to add yourself to
AUTHORS.rst!
