Join us on slack!
pyStudyGroup is a python user group located on slack in which members can:
- Ask for help
- Share code and ideas
- Plan and create projects as teams
This repository is for pyStudyGroup members to introduce ourselves as well as share small pieces of code with other users
The following is a short introduction to git and getting started with pyStudyGroup but should by no means be considered a complete guide. Please take time to get familiar with git and github to better communicate with fellow members.
Before getting started make sure you have installed git on your system and that you have a github account
To get started we must fork this project. Forking another user's project creates a copy in your own repository which you may edit and later send changes back to the original project.
To fork this project simply click on fork in the top right-hand corner of this page
A clone is copy of your git project located on your computer. This is where we edit files in the project.
To create a clone run the following code, replacing <user> with your github username
$ git clone https://github.com/<user>/pyStudyGroupSlack.git .
Then go inside the pyStudyGroupSlack directory
$ cd pyStudyGroupSlack
While inside pyStudyGroup, create a directory with your slack username
$ mkdir <username>
$ git add <username>
and go inside that directory
$ cd <username>
And there you can do what ever you want, this is your personal folder in our git project! This is a great place to save and share code with other users
For this example I will create a README.md file saying some things about me
$ vim README.md
Then add this folder to github tracking
$ git add .
Then commit with your slack username as the message and push (upload) the changes to github
$ git commit -m <username>
$ git push
Finally we must get this back to Belonias/pyStudyGroupSlack. So go to the project's github page at https://github.com/Belonias/pyStudyGroupSlack and click "Compare and pull request" to submit your changes to the original project (pending approval)
Thank you for reading and joining us at pyStudyGroup!
