Most contributions require you to agree to a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) declaring that you have the right to, and actually do, grant us the rights to use your contribution. For details, visit https://cla.opensource.microsoft.com.

If you are new to GitHub here is a detailed help source on getting involved with development on GitHub.

When you submit a pull request, a CLA bot will automatically determine whether you need to provide a CLA and decorate the PR appropriately (e.g., status check, comment). Simply follow the instructions provided by the bot. You will only need to do this once across all repos using our CLA.

This project has adopted the Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct. For more information see the Code of Conduct FAQ or contact opencode@microsoft.com with any additional questions or comments.

Becoming a Reviewer

There is currently no formal reviewer solicitation process. Current reviewers identify reviewers from active contributors. If you are willing to become a reviewer, you are welcome to let us know on gitter.

Developing

Setup

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/FLAML.git
pip install -e .[test,notebook]

Docker

We provide a simple Dockerfile.

docker build git://github.com/microsoft/FLAML -t flaml-dev
docker run -it flaml-dev

Develop in Remote Container

If you use vscode, you can open the FLAML folder in a Container. We have provided the configuration in devcontainer.

Pre-commit

Run pre-commit install to install pre-commit into your git hooks. Before you commit, run pre-commit run to check if you meet the pre-commit requirements. If you use Windows (without WSL) and can't commit after installing pre-commit, you can run pre-commit uninstall to uninstall the hook. In WSL or Linux this is supposed to work.

Coverage

Any code you commit should not decrease coverage. To run all unit tests:

coverage run -m pytest test

Then you can see the coverage report by coverage report -m or coverage html. If all the tests are passed, please also test run notebook/automl_classification to make sure your commit does not break the notebook example.

Documentation

To build and test documentation locally, install Node.js. For example,

nvm install --lts

Then:

npm install --global yarn  # skip if you use the dev container we provided
pip install pydoc-markdown  # skip if you use the dev container we provided
cd website
yarn install --frozen-lockfile
pydoc-markdown
yarn start

The last command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.
