contributing guide: ran into an issue while installing tests
learningboiz opened this issue · comments
Followed the contribution guide and faced an error when installing the tests.
Specs
- Python 3.9.12
- Django 4.2.1
- zsh 5.8.1
Steps to reproduce
- Fork
django/channelsrepo - Clone repo into local machine with
git clone git@github.com:your-username/channels.git - Activate virtual environment
- Move into channels directory with
cd channels - Install tests with
python -m pip install -e .[tests]
Error
zsh: no matches found: .[tests]
After some research, I identified that the [] might have been interpreted by zsh as a wildcard to match files similar to tests. After wrapping it around quotations (i.e '[tests]'), I managed to succeed with installations.
Not sure if it's just an isolated issue — just thought to raise it up in case it's worth mentioning.
Yes it's a zsh vs bash thing. You could suggest a change there if you'd like! Thanks.
Sure thing, I've raised a PR regarding this. Sorry it took awhile — was swamped recently.
