libweasyl is a library of functionality and database models that underpins
much of weasyl and its one-off scripts.
To write a new tool using libweasyl (assuming you already have your database
setup and libweasyl's requirements installed in your python environment), you
probably should begin by setting up a call to [configure_libweasyl()]
(libweasyl/configuration.py). At minimum this will require a SQLAlchemy
scoped_session to your weasyl database and a path to a staff.yaml file
identifying the staff users.
If you're making changes to libweasyl, you are expected to write unit tests and to check your code for style mistakes.
Running unit tests:
$ make test
Checking test coverage:
$ make coverage
Style-checks:
$ make check # checks uncommitted changes. Runs pre-commit
$ make check-all # checks entire codebase
$ make check-commit # checks most recent commit
