Style Guide
This section describes the coding style rules that apply to our code and that we recommend you to use it also.
In some cases, our style guide diverges from Julia's official Style Guide (Please read it!). All such cases will be explicitly noted and justified.
Our style guide adopts many recommendations from the BlueStyle. Please read the BlueStyle before contributing to this package. If these guidelines are not followed, your pull requests may not be accepted.
The style guide is always a work in progress, and not all EquationOfStateRecipes code follows the rules. When modifying EquationOfStateRecipes, please fix the style violations of the surrounding code (i.e., leave the code tidier than when you started). If large changes are needed, consider separating them into another pull request.
Formatting
Run JuliaFormatter
EquationOfStateRecipes uses JuliaFormatter as an auto-formatting tool.
We use the options contained in .JuliaFormatter.toml
.
To format your code, cd
to the EquationOfStateRecipes directory, then run:
julia> using Pkg
julia> Pkg.add("JuliaFormatter")
julia> using JuliaFormatter: format
julia> format("docs"); format("src"); format("test")
A continuous integration check verifies that all PRs made to EquationOfStateRecipes have passed the formatter.
The following sections outline extra style guide points that are not fixed automatically by JuliaFormatter.
Use the Julia extension for Visual Studio Code
Please use Visual Studio Code with the Julia extension to edit, format, and test your code. For the time being, we do not recommend using editors other than Visual Studio Code to edit your code.
This extension already has JuliaFormatter integrated. So to format your code, follow the steps listed here.
