Development Set-up

To create a development environment follow the steps outlined below.

Setting Up Your Fork

When working with a fork, follow these steps to set up your local development environment:

Fork the repository: Create your own copy of the repository on GitHub, following this GitHub tutorial.
Clone your fork: Download your forked repository to your local machine as outlined in this section of the tutorial.
Add the upstream remote: Connect your local repository to the original repository to fetch updates as described in this section.
Prevent accidental pushes to upstream: After setting up your fork and configuring the original repository as an upstream remote, it’s a good practice to prevent accidental pushes to the upstream repository. You can do this by explicitly setting the push URL of the upstream remote to no_push. To do this, navigate to your local repository and run:
```
git remote set-url --push upstream no_push
```
Verify the change with:
```
git remote -v
```
You should see something like this:
```
origin    https://github.com/your-username/repository.git (fetch)
origin    https://github.com/your-username/repository.git (push)
upstream  https://github.com/original-owner/repository.git (fetch)
upstream  no_push (push)
```
With this configuration, you can still fetch updates from the upstream repository but won’t be able to accidentally push changes to it.

Create and activate a virtual environment with a python version >=3.9, and <3.13.
Navigate to the repository you cloned and for which you want to install the dependencies.

For packages in anemoi-core, i.e. anemoi-training, anemoi-models, or anemoi-graphs, navigate to the relevant package directory
```
cd anemoi-core/{package}
```
where {package} is the package name, e.g. training.

For all other packages:
```
cd anemoi-{package}
```
where {package} is the package name, e.g. datasets.

Install dependencies:

# For all dependencies
pip install -e .

# For development dependencies
pip install -e '.[dev]'

(macOS only) Install pandoc for documentation building:
```
brew install pandoc
```

We use pre-commit hooks to ensure code quality and consistency. To set them up:

Install pre-commit hooks:
```
pre-commit install
```
Run hooks on all files to verify installation:
```
pre-commit run --all-files
```

These pre-commit hooks will run for each commit.
