Get Started!¶

Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up plonecli for local development.

Clone the repo locally:

$ git clone git@github.com:plone/plonecli.git

Create a branch of the plonecli repo:
```
$ git checkout -b yourgithubuser_topic
```

Create a virtualenv and install your local copy.:

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ ./venv/bin/pip install -e .[dev]

Now you can make your changes locally.

When you’re done making changes, run test and linters with tox:
```
$ tox
```

To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
$ git push

Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
