Working on Eskapade-Core

You have some cool feature and/or algorithm you want to add to Eskapade. How do you go about it?

First clone Eskapade.

git clone https://github.com/KaveIO/Eskapade-Core.git eskapade-core

then

pip install -e eskapade-core

this will install Eskapade-Core in editable mode, which will allow you to edit the code and run it as you would with a normal installation of eskapade.

To make sure that everything works try executing eskapade without any arguments, e.g.

eskapade_run

or you could just execute the tests using either the eskapade test runner, e.g.

cd eskapade-core
eskapade_trial .

or

cd eskapade
python setup.py test

That’s it.
