Installing from pypi

• To install this package from pypi run:

pip install mozanalysis

Testing locally

with Tox

Install tox into your global Python environment and run tox.

You can pass flags to tox to limit the different environments you test in or the tests you run. Options after -- or positional arguments are forwarded to pytest.

For example, you can run:

• tox -e lint to lint
• tox -e py37 -- -k utils to only run tests with "utils" somewhere in the name, on Python 3.7
• tox tests/test_utils.py to run tests in a specific file

with the CircleCI utilities

To test/debug this package locally, you can run exactly the job that CircleCI runs for continuous integration by installing the CircleCI local CLI and invoking:

circleci build --job py37

See .circleci/config.yml for the other configured job names (for running tests on different python versions).

Deploying a new release

Releasing mozanalysis happens by tagging a CalVer based Git tag with the following pattern:

YYYY.M.MINOR

where YYYY is the four-digit year number, M is a single-digit month number and MINOR is a single-digit zero-based counter which does NOT relate to the day of the release. Valid versions numbers are:

2017.10.0
2018.1.0
2018.12.12

Once the (signed) Git tag has been pushed to the main GitHub repository using git push origin --tags, Circle CI will automatically build and push a release to PyPI after the tests have passed.
