 How To Contribute
 =================

-Every open source project lives from the generous help by contributors that sacrifice their time and ``python-telegram-bot`` is no different.
+Every open source project lives from the generous help by contributors that sacrifice their time and ``python-telegram-bot`` is no different. To make participation as pleasant as possible, this project adheres to the `Code of Conduct`_ by the Python Software Foundation.

-To make participation as pleasant as possible, this project adheres to the `Code of Conduct`_ by the Python Software Foundation.
+Setting things up
+-----------------

-Here are a few guidelines to get you started:
+1. Fork the ``python-telegram-bot`` repository to your GitHub account.

- Add yourself to the AUTHORS.rst_ file in an alphabetical fashion.
-  Every contribution is valuable and shall be credited.
- If your change is noteworthy, add an entry to the CHANGES_.
- No contribution is too small; please submit as many fixes for typos and grammar bloopers as you can!
- Don’t break backward compatibility.
- *Always* add tests and docs for your code.
-  This is a hard rule; patches with missing tests or documentation won’t be merged.
-  If a feature is not tested or documented, it doesn’t exist.
- Obey `PEP 8`_ and `PEP 257`_.
- Follow `Google Python Style Guide`_ and `Google Python Style Docstrings`_.
- Write `good commit messages`_.
+2. Clone your forked repository of ``python-telegram-bot`` to your computer:

-.. note::
-   If you have something great but aren’t sure whether it adheres -- or even can adhere -- to the rules above: **please submit a pull request anyway**!
+   ``$ git clone https://github.com/<your username>/python-telegram-bot``

-   In the best case, we can mold it into something, in the worst case the pull request gets politely closed.
-   There’s absolutely nothing to fear.
+   ``$ cd python-telegram-bot``

-Thank you for considering to contribute to ``python-telegram-bot``!
-If you have any question or concerns, feel free to reach out to me.
+3. Add a track to the original repository:
+
+   ``$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot``
+
+4. Install dependencies:
+
+   ``$ pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-dev.txt``


-.. _`PEP 8`: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/
-.. _`PEP 257`: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0257/
-.. _`good commit messages`: http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html
+5. Install pre-commit hooks:
+
+   ``$ pre-commit install``
+
+Finding something to do
+-----------------------
+
+If you already know what you'd like to work on, you can skip this section.
+
+If you have an idea for something to do, first check if it's already been filed on the `issue tracker`_. If so, add a comment to the issue saying you'd like to work on it, and we'll help you get started! Otherwise, please file a new issue and assign yourself to it.
+
+Another great way to start contributing is by writing tests. Tests are really important because they help prevent developers from accidentally breaking existing code, allowing them to build cool things faster. If you're interested in helping out, let the development team know by posting to the `developers' mailing list`_, and we'll help you get started.
+
+Instructions for making a code change
+-------------------------------------
+
+The central development branch is ``master``, which should be clean and ready for release at any time. In general, all changes should be done as feature branches based off of ``master``.
+
+Here's how to make a one-off code change.
+
+1. **Choose a descriptive branch name.** It should be lowercase, hyphen-separated, and a noun describing the change (so, ``fuzzy-rules``, but not ``implement-fuzzy-rules``). Also, it shouldn't start with ``hotfix`` or ``release``.
+
+2. **Create a new branch with this name, starting from** ``master``. In other words, run:
+
+   ``$ git fetch upstream``
+
+   ``$ git checkout master``
+
+   ``$ git merge upstream/master``
+
+   ``$ git checkout -b your-branch-name``
+
+3. **Make a commit to your feature branch**. Each commit should be self-contained and have a descriptive commit message that helps other developers understand why the changes were made.
+
+   - You can refer to relevant issues in the commit message by writing, e.g., "#105".
+
+   - Your code should adhere to the `PEP 8 Style Guide`_, with the exception that we have a maximum line length of 99.
+
+   - For consistency, please conform to `Google Python Style Guide`_ and `Google Python Style Docstrings`_. In addition, code should be formatted consistently with other code around it.
+
+   - The following exceptions to the above (Google's) style guides applies:
+
+        - Documenting types of global variables and complex types of class members can be done using the Sphinx docstring convention.
+
+   - Please ensure that the code you write is well-tested.
+
+   - Don’t break backward compatibility.
+
+   - Add yourself to the AUTHORS.rst_ file in an alphabetical fashion.
+
+   - Before making a commit ensure that all automated tests still pass:
+
+      ``$ make test``
+
+   - To actually make the commit (this will trigger tests for yapf, lint and pep8 automatically):
+
+      ``$ git add your-file-changed.py``
+
+        - yapf may change code formatting, make sure to re-add them to your commit.
+
+      ``$ git commit -a -m "your-commit-message-here"``
+
+   - Finally, push it to your GitHub fork, run:
+
+      ``$ git push origin your-branch-name``
+
+4. **When your feature is ready to merge, create a pull request.**
+
+   - Go to your fork on GitHub, select your branch from the dropdown menu, and click "New pull request".
+
+   - Add a descriptive comment explaining the purpose of the branch (e.g. "Add the new API feature to create inline bot queries."). This will tell the reviewer what the purpose of the branch is.
+
+   - Click "Create pull request". An admin will assign a reviewer to your commit.
+
+5. **Address review comments until all reviewers give LGTM ('looks good to me').**
+
+   - When your reviewer has reviewed the code, you'll get an email. You'll need to respond in two ways:
+
+       - Make a new commit addressing the comments you agree with, and push it to the same branch. Ideally, the commit message would explain what the commit does (e.g. "Fix lint error"), but if there are lots of disparate review comments, it's fine to refer to the original commit message and add something like "(address review comments)".
+
+       - In addition, please reply to each comment. Each reply should be either "Done" or a response explaining why the corresponding suggestion wasn't implemented. All comments must be resolved before LGTM can be given.
+
+   - Resolve any merge conflicts that arise. To resolve conflicts between 'your-branch-name' (in your fork) and 'master' (in the ``python-telegram-bot`` repository), run:
+
+      ``$ git checkout your-branch-name``
+
+      ``$ git fetch upstream``
+
+      ``$ git merge upstream/master``
+
+      ``$ ...[fix the conflicts]...``
+
+      ``$ ...[make sure the tests pass before committing]...``
+
+      ``$ git commit -a``
+
+      ``$ git push origin your-branch-name``
+
+   - At the end, the reviewer will merge the pull request.
+
+6. **Tidy up!** Delete the feature branch from both your local clone and the GitHub repository:
+
+   ``$ git branch -D your-branch-name``
+
+   ``$ git push origin --delete your-branch-name``
+
+7. **Celebrate.** Congratulations, you have contributed to ``python-telegram-bot``!

+This library uses the `logging` module. To set up logging to standard output, put:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    import logging
+    logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG,
+                        format='%(asctime)s - %(name)s - %(levelname)s - %(message)s')
+
+at the beginning of your script.
+
+**Note:** The ``telegram.ext`` module will catch errors that would cause the bot to crash. All these are logged to the ``logging`` module, so it's recommended to use this if you are looking for error causes.
+
+----------------------
+_`Learning by example`
+----------------------
+
+We believe that the best way to learn and understand this simple package is by example. So here are some examples for you to review. Even if it's not your approach for learning, please take a look at ``echobot2`` (below), it is de facto the base for most of the bots out there. Best of all, the code for these examples are released to the public domain, so you can start by grabbing the code and building on top of it.

 _`API`
 ------

-The API is exposed via the ``telegram.Bot`` class.
+Note: Using the ``Bot`` class directly is the 'old' method, we have an easier way to make bots described in the next section.  All of this is however still important information, even if you're using the ``telegram.ext`` submodule!

-To generate an Access Token you have to talk to `BotFather <https://telegram.me/botfather>`_ and follow a few simple steps (described `here <https://core.telegram.org/bots#botfather>`_).
+The API is exposed via the ``telegram.Bot`` class. The methods have names as described in the official `Telegram Bot API <https://core.telegram.org/bots/api>`_, but equivalent snake_case methods are available for `PEP8 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>`_ enthusiasts. So for example ``telegram.Bot.send_message`` is the same as ``telegram.Bot.sendMessage``.

+-------------
+_`Extensions`
+-------------
+
+The ``telegram.ext`` submodule is built on top of the bare-metal API. It provides an easy-to-use interface to the ``telegram.Bot`` by caring about getting new updates with the ``Updater`` class from telegram and forwarding them to the ``Dispatcher`` class. We can register handler functions in the ``Dispatcher`` to make our bot react to Telegram commands, messages and even arbitrary updates.
+
+We'll need an Access Token. **Note:** If you have done this in the previous step, you can use that one. To generate an Access Token, we have to talk to `BotFather <https://telegram.me/botfather>`_ and follow a few simple steps (described `here <https://core.telegram.org/bots#botfather>`_).
+
+First, we create an ``Updater`` object:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> from telegram.ext import Updater
+   >>> updater = Updater(token='token')
+
+For quicker access to the ``Dispatcher`` used by our ``Updater``, we can introduce it locally:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> dispatcher = updater.dispatcher
+
+Now, we need to define a function that should process a specific type of update:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> def start(bot, update):
+   ...   bot.sendMessage(chat_id=update.message.chat_id, text="I'm a bot, please talk to me!")
+
+We want this function to be called on a Telegram message that contains the ``/start`` command. To do that, we have to use a ``CommandHandler`` object and register it in the dispatcher:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> from telegram.ext import CommandHandler
+   >>> start_handler = CommandHandler('start', start)
+   >>> dispatcher.add_handler(start_handler)
+
+The last step is to tell the ``Updater`` to start working:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> updater.start_polling()
+
+Our bot is now up and running (go ahead and try it)! It's not doing anything yet, besides answering to the ``/start`` command. Let's add another handler that listens for regular messages. We're using the `MessageHandler` here to echo to all text messages:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> def echo(bot, update):
+   ...   bot.sendMessage(chat_id=update.message.chat_id, text=update.message.text)
+   ...
+   >>> from telegram.ext import MessageHandler, Filters
+   >>> echo_handler = MessageHandler([Filters.text], echo)
+   >>> dispatcher.add_handler(echo_handler)
+
+Our bot should now reply to all text messages that are not a command with a message that has the same content.
+
+Let's add some functionality to our bot. We want to add the ``/caps`` command, that will take some text as parameter and return it in all caps. We can get the arguments that were passed to a command in the handler function:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> def caps(bot, update, args):
+   ...   text_caps = ' '.join(args).upper()
+   ...   bot.sendMessage(chat_id=update.message.chat_id, text=text_caps)
+   ...
+   >>> caps_handler = CommandHandler('caps', caps, pass_args=True)
+   >>> dispatcher.add_handler(caps_handler)
+
+To enable our bot to respond to inline queries, we can add the following (you will also have to talk to BotFather):
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> from telegram import InlineQueryResultArticle
+   >>> def inline_caps(bot, update):
+   ...   query = bot.update.inline_query.query
+   ...   results = list()
+   ...   results.append(InlineQueryResultArticle(query.upper(), 'Caps', query.upper()))
+   ...   bot.answerInlineQuery(update.inline_query.id, results)
+   ...
+   >>> from telegram.ext import InlineQueryHandler
+   >>> inline_caps_handler = InlineQueryHandler(inline_caps)
+   >>> dispatcher.add_handler(inline_caps_handler)
+
+People might try to send commands to the bot that it doesn't understand, so we can use a ``RegexHandler`` to recognize all commands that were not recognized by the previous handlers. **Note:** This handler has to be added last, else it will be triggered before the ``CommandHandlers`` had a chance to look at the update:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> def unknown(bot, update):
+   ...   bot.sendMessage(chat_id=update.message.chat_id, text="Sorry, I didn't understand that command.")
+   ...
+   >>> from telegram.ext import RegexHandler
+   >>> unknown_handler = RegexHandler(r'/.*', unknown)
+   >>> dispatcher.add_handler(unknown_handler)
+
+If you're done playing around, stop the bot with this:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+   >>> updater.stop()
+
+Check out more examples in the `examples folder <https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot/tree/master/examples>`_!

-_`Logging`
+_`JobQueue`
 -----------

-You can get logs in your main application by calling `logging` and setting the log level you want::
+The ``JobQueue`` allows you to perform tasks with a delay or even periodically. The ``Updater`` will create one for you:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    >>> from telegram.ext import Updater
+    >>> u = Updater('TOKEN')
+    >>> j = u.job_queue
+
+The job queue uses functions for tasks, so we define one and add it to the queue. Usually, when the first job is added to the queue, it wil start automatically. We can prevent this by setting ``prevent_autostart=True``:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    >>> def job1(bot):
+    ...     bot.sendMessage(chat_id='@examplechannel', text='One message every minute')
+    >>> j.put(job1, 60, next_t=0, prevent_autostart=True)
+
+You can also have a job that will not be executed repeatedly:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    >>> def job2(bot):
+    ...     bot.sendMessage(chat_id='@examplechannel', text='A single message with 30s delay')
+    >>> j.put(job2, 30, repeat=False)
+
+Now, because we didn't prevent the auto start this time, the queue will start ticking. It runs in a seperate thread, so it is non-blocking. When we stop the Updater, the related queue will be stopped as well:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    >>> u.stop()
+
+We can also stop the job queue by itself:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    >>> j.stop()
+

+_`Logging`
+----------
+
+You can get logs in your main application by calling `logging` and setting the log level you want:

+CC0 1.0 Universal
+
+Statement of Purpose
+
+The laws of most jurisdictions throughout the world automatically confer
+exclusive Copyright and Related Rights (defined below) upon the creator and
+subsequent owner(s) (each and all, an "owner") of an original work of
+authorship and/or a database (each, a "Work").
+
+Certain owners wish to permanently relinquish those rights to a Work for the
+purpose of contributing to a commons of creative, cultural and scientific
+works ("Commons") that the public can reliably and without fear of later
+claims of infringement build upon, modify, incorporate in other works, reuse
+and redistribute as freely as possible in any form whatsoever and for any
+purposes, including without limitation commercial purposes. These owners may
+contribute to the Commons to promote the ideal of a free culture and the
+further production of creative, cultural and scientific works, or to gain
+reputation or greater distribution for their Work in part through the use and
+efforts of others.
+
+For these and/or other purposes and motivations, and without any expectation
+of additional consideration or compensation, the person associating CC0 with a
+Work (the "Affirmer"), to the extent that he or she is an owner of Copyright
+and Related Rights in the Work, voluntarily elects to apply CC0 to the Work
+and publicly distribute the Work under its terms, with knowledge of his or her
+Copyright and Related Rights in the Work and the meaning and intended legal
+effect of CC0 on those rights.
+
+1. Copyright and Related Rights. A Work made available under CC0 may be
+protected by copyright and related or neighboring rights ("Copyright and
+Related Rights"). Copyright and Related Rights include, but are not limited
+to, the following:
+
+  i. the right to reproduce, adapt, distribute, perform, display, communicate,
+  and translate a Work;
+
+  ii. moral rights retained by the original author(s) and/or performer(s);
+
+  iii. publicity and privacy rights pertaining to a person's image or likeness
+  depicted in a Work;
+
+  iv. rights protecting against unfair competition in regards to a Work,
+  subject to the limitations in paragraph 4(a), below;
+
+  v. rights protecting the extraction, dissemination, use and reuse of data in
+  a Work;
+
+  vi. database rights (such as those arising under Directive 96/9/EC of the
+  European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal
+  protection of databases, and under any national implementation thereof,
+  including any amended or successor version of such directive); and
+
+  vii. other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the world
+  based on applicable law or treaty, and any national implementations thereof.
+
+2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention of,
+applicable law, Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently, irrevocably and
+unconditionally waives, abandons, and surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright
+and Related Rights and associated claims and causes of action, whether now
+known or unknown (including existing as well as future claims and causes of
+action), in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum
+duration provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time
+extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number of
+copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation
+commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer makes
+the Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large and to the
+detriment of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that such Waiver
+shall not be subject to revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or
+any other legal or equitable action to disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work
+by the public as contemplated by Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
+
+3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be
+judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver
+shall be preserved to the maximum extent permitted taking into account
+Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose. In addition, to the extent the Waiver
+is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected person a royalty-free,
+non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and
+unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in
+the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration
+provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii)
+in any current or future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any
+purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial, advertising or
+promotional purposes (the "License"). The License shall be deemed effective as
+of the date CC0 was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the
+License for any reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under
+applicable law, such partial invalidity or ineffectiveness shall not
+invalidate the remainder of the License, and in such case Affirmer hereby
+affirms that he or she will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining
+Copyright and Related Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims
+and causes of action with respect to the Work, in either case contrary to
+Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
+
+4. Limitations and Disclaimers.
+
+  a. No trademark or patent rights held by Affirmer are waived, abandoned,
+  surrendered, licensed or otherwise affected by this document.
+
+  b. Affirmer offers the Work as-is and makes no representations or warranties
+  of any kind concerning the Work, express, implied, statutory or otherwise,
+  including without limitation warranties of title, merchantability, fitness
+  for a particular purpose, non infringement, or the absence of latent or
+  other defects, accuracy, or the present or absence of errors, whether or not
+  discoverable, all to the greatest extent permissible under applicable law.
+
+  c. Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons
+  that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without limitation
+  any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work. Further, Affirmer
+  disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary consents, permissions
+  or other rights required for any use of the Work.
+
+  d. Affirmer understands and acknowledges that Creative Commons is not a
+  party to this document and has no duty or obligation with respect to this
+  CC0 or use of the Work.
