We have a lot of users between here and libtmux. We need to build a team.

Willing to pitch some personal time in to help make tmuxp better?

You're welcome to participate now! We're a well-documented, CI-backed open source project. You can start now by answering issues and QA'ing / code reviewing pull requests.

If you fit any of these characteristics, you're encouraged to reply here to become a helper / maintainer!

  • love open source
  • tmuxp user
  • Python experience
  • tmux experience
  • can wrap their brain around the codebase (code quality between tmuxp and libtmux is good)
  • Like of or interest in learning pytest
  • Like of or interest in documents (we use sphinx)
  • time they can devote to answering/closing issues
  • QA'ing pull requests
  • Assuring contributions maintain code standards (flake8, vulture)
  • Making sure tmuxp and libtmux stay true to what they're philosophically supposed to do, while allowing new features to come in.

Edit: mail me at tony at git dash pull dot com

@askedrelic Are you still available/willing to help out around the project?

Hi @tony unfortunately I don't know how much time I can commit. I've been watching the tmuxp and libtmux projects the last few months, to get a better sense of things. I'll keep doing so and try to be more active on things.

Sidenote - the pyup and auto ticket mgmt bots are really nice for helping maintain the project!

I am interested to be a maintainer. I am not familiar with libtmux, yet. I have used and worked with tmuxp and would love to contribute.

It probably won't make sense for me to be a maintainer since I am lack on time as well but I'll see around if I can help a bit whenever I get time and the mood. :D

I would help you. I could take a look at issues and also to the QA of merge request. Currently I use tmuxinator... but I am going to start to use tmuxp.

@tony You might consider putting this project under the Jazzband org: https://jazzband.co/ .

Jazzband is nice for some projects, I've contributed to a few. It's not ideal for ones where a lead developer or creator wants to maintain a final say. With our independent organization https://github.com/tmux-python there is the best of both worlds, responsibility can be delegated out to maintainers while still having strong leadership. As an example we've had high level help QA'ing and publishing releases from our new maintainers - but I still release features on my own as an original creator / project lead (example: tmuxp shell) and adopt and improve contribution guidelines, can overrule decisions if its more efficient, etc.

@tony I was trying to get my feet wet and implemented #589, flake8 checks out with no errors, but I can't finish make test see #620 :/

@aRkedos thank you for the error report as well. Tests will run in CI but not sure you'd want to wait for that :)
