OpenStack Style Guidelines
==========================


- Step 1: Read http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/
- Step 2: Read http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/ again
- Step 3: Read on


General
-------
- Put two newlines between top-level code (funcs, classes, etc)
- Use only UNIX style newlines ("\n"), not Windows style ("\r\n")
- Put one newline between methods in classes and anywhere else
- Long lines should be wrapped in parentheses
  in preference to using a backslash for line continuation.
- Do not write "except:", use "except Exception:" at the very least
- Include your name with TODOs as in "#TODO(termie)"
- Do not shadow a built-in or reserved word. Example::


    def list():
        return [1, 2, 3]


    mylist = list() # BAD, shadows `list` built-in


    class Foo(object):
        def list(self):
            return [1, 2, 3]


    mylist = Foo().list() # OKAY, does not shadow built-in


- Use the "is not" operator when testing for unequal identities. Example::


    if not X is Y:  # BAD, intended behavior is ambiguous
        pass


    if X is not Y:  # OKAY, intuitive
        pass


- Use the "not in" operator for evaluating membership in a collection. Example::


    if not X in Y:  # BAD, intended behavior is ambiguous
        pass


    if X not in Y:  # OKAY, intuitive
        pass


    if not (X in Y or X in Z):  # OKAY, still better than all those 'not's
        pass




Imports
-------
- Do not import objects, only modules (*)
- Do not import more than one module per line (*)
- Do not use wildcard ``*`` import (*)
- Do not make relative imports
- Order your imports by the full module path
- Organize your imports according to the following template


(*) exceptions are:


- imports from ``migrate`` package
- imports from ``sqlalchemy`` package
- imports from ``nova.db.sqlalchemy.session`` module
- imports from ``nova.db.sqlalchemy.migration.versioning_api`` package


Example::


  # vim: tabstop=4 shiftwidth=4 softtabstop=4
  {{stdlib imports in human alphabetical order}}
  \n
  {{third-party lib imports in human alphabetical order}}
  \n
  {{project imports in human alphabetical order}}
  \n
  \n
  {{begin your code}}




Human Alphabetical Order Examples
---------------------------------
Example::


  import httplib
  import logging
  import random
  import StringIO
  import time
  import unittest


  import eventlet
  import webob.exc


  import nova.api.ec2
  from nova.api import openstack
  from nova.auth import users
  from nova.endpoint import cloud
  import nova.flags
  from nova import test




Docstrings
----------
Example::


  """A one line docstring looks like this and ends in a period."""




  """A multi line docstring has a one-line summary, less than 80 characters.


  Then a new paragraph after a newline that explains in more detail any
  general information about the function, class or method. Example usages
  are also great to have here if it is a complex class for function.


  When writing the docstring for a class, an extra line should be placed
  after the closing quotations. For more in-depth explanations for these
  decisions see http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/


  If you are going to describe parameters and return values, use Sphinx, the
  appropriate syntax is as follows.


  :param foo: the foo parameter
  :param bar: the bar parameter
  :returns: return_type -- description of the return value
  :returns: description of the return value
  :raises: AttributeError, KeyError
  """




Dictionaries/Lists
------------------
If a dictionary (dict) or list object is longer than 80 characters, its items
should be split with newlines. Embedded iterables should have their items
indented. Additionally, the last item in the dictionary should have a trailing
comma. This increases readability and simplifies future diffs.


Example::


  my_dictionary = {
      "image": {
          "name": "Just a Snapshot",
          "size": 2749573,
          "properties": {
               "user_id": 12,
               "arch": "x86_64",
          },
          "things": [
              "thing_one",
              "thing_two",
          ],
          "status": "ACTIVE",
      },
  }


Do not use ``locals()`` for formatting strings, it is not clear as using
explicit dictionaries and can hide errors during refactoring.


Calling Methods
---------------
Calls to methods 80 characters or longer should format each argument with
newlines. This is not a requirement, but a guideline::


    unnecessarily_long_function_name('string one',
                                     'string two',
                                     kwarg1=constants.ACTIVE,
                                     kwarg2=['a', 'b', 'c'])




Rather than constructing parameters inline, it is better to break things up::


    list_of_strings = [
        'what_a_long_string',
        'not as long',
    ]


    dict_of_numbers = {
        'one': 1,
        'two': 2,
        'twenty four': 24,
    }


    object_one.call_a_method('string three',
                             'string four',
                             kwarg1=list_of_strings,
                             kwarg2=dict_of_numbers)




Internationalization (i18n) Strings
-----------------------------------
In order to support multiple languages, we have a mechanism to support
automatic translations of exception and log strings.


Example::


    msg = _("An error occurred")
    raise HTTPBadRequest(explanation=msg)


If you have a variable to place within the string, first internationalize the
template string then do the replacement.


Example::


    msg = _("Missing parameter: %s") % ("flavor")
    LOG.error(msg)


If you have multiple variables to place in the string, use keyword parameters.
This helps our translators reorder parameters when needed.


Example::


    msg = _("The server with id %(s_id)s has no key %(m_key)s")
    LOG.error(msg % {"s_id": "1234", "m_key": "imageId"})




Python 3.x compatibility
------------------------
OpenStack code should become Python 3.x compatible. That means all Python 2.x-only
constructs or dependencies should be avoided. An example is


    except x,y:


Use


    except x as y:


instead. Also Python 3.x has become more strict regarding octal string
literals. Use "0o755" instead of "0755". Similarly, explicit use of long
literals (01234L) should be avoided.


Other Python 3.x compatibility issues, like e.g. print operator
can be avoided in new code by using


    from __future__ import print_function


at the top of your module.




Creating Unit Tests
-------------------
For every new feature, unit tests should be created that both test and
(implicitly) document the usage of said feature. If submitting a patch for a
bug that had no unit test, a new passing unit test should be added. If a
submitted bug fix does have a unit test, be sure to add a new one that fails
without the patch and passes with the patch.




oslo-incubator
----------------


A number of modules from oslo-incubator are imported into the project.


These modules are "incubating" in oslo-incubator and are kept in sync
with the help of oslo-incubator's update.py script. See:


  https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Oslo#Incubation




The copy of the code should never be directly modified here. Please
always update oslo-incubator first and then run the script to copy
the changes across.




OpenStack Trademark
-------------------


OpenStack is a registered trademark of the OpenStack Foundation, and uses the
following capitalization:


   OpenStack




OpenStack Licensing
-------------------


Newly contributed Source Code should be licensed under the Apache 2.0 license.
All source files should have the following header:

Commit Messages
---------------
Using a common format for commit messages will help keep our git history
readable. Follow these guidelines:


  First, provide a brief summary of 50 characters or less.  Summaries
  of greater then 72 characters will be rejected by the gate.


  The first line of the commit message should provide an accurate
  description of the change, not just a reference to a bug or
  blueprint. It must not end with a period and must be followed by
  a single blank line.


  If the change relates to a specific driver (libvirt, xenapi, qpid, etc...),
  begin the first line of the commit message with the driver name, lowercased,
  followed by a colon.


  Following your brief summary, provide a more detailed description of
  the patch, manually wrapping the text at 72 characters. This
  description should provide enough detail that one does not have to
  refer to external resources to determine its high-level functionality.


  Once you use 'git review', two lines will be appended to the commit
  message: a blank line followed by a 'Change-Id'. This is important
  to correlate this commit with a specific review in Gerrit, and it
  should not be modified.


For further information on constructing high quality commit messages,
and how to split up commits into a series of changes, consult the
project wiki:
