Contributing to gen_surv

Thank you for taking the time to contribute to gen_surv! This document provides a brief overview of the recommended workflow for feature requests and pull requests.

Getting Started

1. Fork the repository and create your feature branch from main.

2. Install dependencies with poetry install --with dev. This installs all packages needed for development, including the optional dependency scikit-survival. On Debian/Ubuntu you may need build-essential gfortran libopenblas-dev to build it.

3. Run pre-commit install to enable style checks and execute them with pre-commit run --all-files.

4. Ensure the test suite passes with poetry run pytest.

5. If you add a feature or fix a bug, update CHANGELOG.md accordingly.

Submitting Changes

1. Commit your changes with clear messages.

2. Push to your branch and open a pull request.

3. Ensure your PR description explains the motivation and summarizes your changes.

We appreciate your contributions and feedback!
