Contributing

Any contribution is welcome and we only ask contributors to:

• Provide at least integration tests for any contribution.
• Create an issues for any significant contribution that would change a large portion of the code base.

Running integration tests locally

Clone the collection git project. The ansible-test tool requires a specific directory setup to function correctly so please follow carefully.

cd && mkdir -p git/ansible_collections/community
git clone https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.cassandra.git ./ansible_collections/community/cassandra
cd ./git/ansible_collections/community/cassandra

Create a virtual environment

virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements-3.6.txt

Run all tests

ansible-test integration --docker ubuntu1804 -v --color --python 3.6

Run tests just for the cassandra_role module

ansible-test integration --docker ubuntu1804 -v --color --python 3.6 cassandra_role
