How to submit pull requests

When submitting pull requests it is expected that they pass the unit tests for formatting. The unit tests enforce alphabetization of elements and a consistant formatting to keep merging as clean as possible.

To run the tests run nosetests in the root of the repository. They require the rosdistro library, available on Ubuntu with the ROS repositories as python-rosdistro or via pip as rosdistro.

There is a tool rosdistro_reformat which will fix most formatting errors such as alphabetization and correct formatting.

A Quick Overview of How to Use this Repository

To add your project to our build farm, fork this repository, modify the .yaml files, and give us a pull request. For Fuerte and older the ROS packages are maintained in the subfolder releases and doc. For Groovy and newer the ROS packages are maintained in the subfolder named after the ROS distribution. Mappings for dependencies are maintained in the rosdep subfolder.

To create jobs on our build farm to build Debian sourcedeb and binarydeb packages add your bloom (or git-buildpackage compatible) repository to the ROSDISTRO/release.yaml file (or releases/ROSDISTRO.yaml for Fuerte and older). Please keep the alphabetic order of the list. You can use the script scripts/add_release_repo.py to perform the insertion.

To create jobs on our build farm to perform continuous integration of your repository on every commit add your source repository to the ROSDISTRO/source.yaml file (or releases/ROSDISTRO-devel.yaml for Fuerte and older). Please keep the alphabetic order of the list. You can use the script scripts/add_devel_repo.py to perform the insertion.
