Contributing Guidelines

Thank you for contributing!

We welcome contributions to improve existing reports, add new ones, or create new repositories for different data types.


Improving Existing Reports

  • Enhance current report templates by:
    • Improving the text or comments for clarity and accuracy.
    • Adding a new section (when needed). Make sure to test it using appropriate test data.
  • Always verify your changes with test data before submitting a pull request.

Adding a New Template Report

  • Use the same structure as existing reports to maintain consistency.
  • For test datasets, use those from:
  • Include a Method section in the report:
    • Link to the tools used.
    • Include the relevant R or Python session information.
  • Once complete:
    • Add the new report to the README file and include a badge.
    • Apply code style linting:
      • For R: Use the styleR package.
      • For Python: Use your preferred linting tool (e.g., black, flake8).

Adding a New Repository for Reports

If you want to create a set of reports for a new type of dataset:

  • Open an issue in the GitHub meta-repo: bcbio/.github.
  • Describe the type of data and the reports you want to build.
  • We’ll collaborate with you to make it happen!

Thank you again for helping improve the project! ❤️
