[GRASS-dev] Fwd: [Bug] Fix currently ignored Flake8 warnings #1522

[Vaclav Petras]

Hi Shubham Swati,

Assuming you are working on that Ubuntu machine, make sure you have python3
and pip3. Then, install black and flake8 with pip3 (just search for this
sentence online if pip is new to you). That is all tools you need.
(Definitely check what black and esp. flake8 commands do if this is your
first time seeing them. And of course, there is at least one text editor on
Ubuntu by default - gedit. You can just open any text file including .py
files there.

Then you need to just start. Sift through the issues, pick a random one or
whatever approach works for you. Remember that if it would be trivial it
would be fixed already, so don't be surprised when you will need to spend
some time searching (online and in the code base) and experimenting (with
the code or standalone examples).

You are certainly welcome to work on any issue any time, but a nice setup
makes success more likely. Good luck!

Vaclav
