# Parabolaweb HACKING

Things you should know:

1. You don't need to mess with the fixtures every time you want to add
   something.  It's OK to just add it through the web-based admin
   interface.  The fixtures are for setting up the inital data that
   things might not work without.

2. Please don't add new pages to the `legacy_urls` list in `urls.py`.
   It's for old, compatibility URLs.  But once it's added there, it's
   there forever, don't remove it.

Which branch you should use:

 - If it's a Parabola-specific change, put it on `master`.
 - If it's not Parabola-specific, put it on `archweb-generic`, then
   merge it into `master`.

Following is Archweb's version of the HACKING file; you should follow
it too.

======================

Coding Style
------------

1.  All code should be indented with spaces. This is effectively the following VIM modeline:
  /* vim: set ai ts=4 sw=4 et: */

2.  Recommend removing trailing whitespace. Here is an example for .vimrc
    autocmd BufWritePre *.py normal m`:%s/\s\+$//e ``

3. Wrap lines at 80 characters MAXIMUM


vim: set ai ts=4 sw=4 et:
