# How to contribute to MMAction2

All kinds of contributions are welcome, including but not limited to the following.

- Fixes (typo, bugs)
- New features and components
- Add documentation or translate the documentation into other languages
- Add new project (Recommended) about video understanding algorithm with less restriction, refer to [here](../projectzoo.md) for details

## Workflow

1. Fork and pull the latest mmaction2
2. Checkout a new branch with a meaningful name (do not use main branch for PRs)
3. Commit your changes
4. Create a PR

```{note}

- If you plan to add some new features that involve large changes, it is encouraged to open an issue for discussion first.

- If you are the author of some papers and would like to include your method to mmaction2, please contact us. We will much appreciate your contribution.

```

## Code style

### Python

We adopt [PEP8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) as the preferred code style.

We use the following tools for linting and formatting:

- [flake8](http://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/): linter
- [yapf](https://github.com/google/yapf): formatter
- [isort](https://github.com/timothycrosley/isort): sort imports
- [codespell](https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell): A Python utility to fix common misspellings in text files.
- [mdformat](https://github.com/executablebooks/mdformat): Mdformat is an opinionated Markdown formatter that can be used to enforce a consistent style in Markdown files.
- [docformatter](https://github.com/myint/docformatter): A formatter to format docstring.

Style configurations of yapf and isort can be found in [setup.cfg](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmaction2/blob/main/setup.cfg).

We use [pre-commit hook](https://pre-commit.com/) that checks and formats for `flake8`, `yapf`, `isort`, `trailing whitespaces`, `markdown files`,
fixes `end-of-files`, `double-quoted-strings`, `python-encoding-pragma`, `mixed-line-ending`, sorts `requirments.txt` automatically on every commit.
The config for a pre-commit hook is stored in [.pre-commit-config](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmaction2/blob/main/.pre-commit-config.yaml).

After you clone the repository, you will need to install initialize pre-commit hook.

```

pip install -U pre-commit

```

From the repository folder

```shell

pre-commit install

```

After this on every commit check code linters and formatter will be enforced.

> Before you create a PR, make sure that your code lints and is formatted by yapf.

### C++ and CUDA

We follow the [Google C++ Style Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html).
