Here are some guidelines for hacking on oauth2client
.
Use the issue tracker to start the discussion. It is possible that someone else is already working on your idea, your approach is not quite right, or that the functionality exists already. The ticket you file in the issue tracker will be used to hash that all out.
We will use GitHub's mechanism for forking repositories and making pull requests. Fork the repository, and make your changes in the forked repository.
Be sure to add the relevant tests before making the pull request. Docs will be
updated automatically when we merge to master
, but you should also build
the docs yourself via tox -e docs
and make sure they're readable.
Once you have made all your changes, tests, and updated the documentation,
make a pull request to move everything back into the main oauth2client
repository. Be sure to reference the original issue in the pull request.
Expect some back-and-forth with regards to style and compliance of these
rules. In particular:
oauth2client
follows the Google Python Style Guide.- Follow these guidelines when authoring your commit message.
You’ll have to create a development environment to hack on
oauth2client
, using a Git checkout:
-
While logged into your GitHub account, navigate to the
oauth2client
repo on GitHub. -
Fork and clone the
oauth2client
repository to your GitHub account by clicking the "Fork" button. -
Clone your fork of
oauth2client
from your GitHub account to your local computer, substituting your account username and specifying the destination ashack-on-oauth2client
. For example:$ cd ${HOME} $ git clone git@github.com:USERNAME/oauth2client.git hack-on-oauth2client $ cd hack-on-oauth2client $ # Configure remotes such that you can pull changes from the oauth2client $ # repository into your local repository. $ git remote add upstream https://github.com:google/oauth2client $ # fetch and merge changes from upstream into master $ git fetch upstream $ git merge upstream/master
Now your local repo is set up such that you will push changes to your GitHub repo, from which you can submit a pull request.

Create a virtualenv in which to install
oauth2client
:$ cd ~/hack-on-oauth2client $ virtualenv -ppython2.7 env
Note that very old versions of virtualenv (virtualenv versions below, say, 1.10 or thereabouts) require you to pass a
--no-site-packages
flag to get a completely isolated environment.You can choose which Python version you want to use by passing a
-p
flag tovirtualenv
. For example,virtualenv -ppython2.7
chooses the Python 2.7 interpreter to be installed.From here on in within these instructions, the
~/hack-on-oauth2client/env
virtual environment you created above will be referred to as$VENV
. To use the instructions in the steps that follow literally, use theexport VENV=~/hack-on-oauth2client/env
command. -
Install
oauth2client
from the checkout into the virtualenv usingsetup.py develop
. Runningsetup.py develop
must be done while the current working directory is theoauth2client
checkout directory:$ cd ~/hack-on-oauth2client $ $VENV/bin/python setup.py develop
-
To run all tests for
oauth2client
on a single Python version, runnosetests
from your development virtualenv (See Using a Development Checkout above). -
To run the full set of
oauth2client
tests on all platforms, installtox
into a system Python. Thetox
console script will be installed into the scripts location for that Python. While in theoauth2client
checkout root directory (it containstox.ini
), invoke thetox
console script. This will read thetox.ini
file and execute the tests on multiple Python versions and platforms; while it runs, it creates a virtualenv for each version/platform combination. For example:$ sudo pip install tox $ cd ~/hack-on-oauth2client $ tox
-
In order to run the
pypy
environment (intox
) you'll need at least version 2.6 ofpypy
installed. See the docs for more information.
-
To run system tests you can execute:
$ tox -e system-tests $ tox -e system-tests3
This alone will not run the tests. You'll need to change some local auth settings and download some service account configuration files from your project to run all the tests.
-
System tests will be run against an actual project and so you'll need to provide some environment variables to facilitate this.
OAUTH2CLIENT_TEST_JSON_KEY_PATH
: The path to a service account JSON key file; seetests/data/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json
as an example. Such a file can be downloaded directly from the developer's console by clicking "Generate new JSON key". See private key docs for more details.OAUTH2CLIENT_TEST_P12_KEY_PATH
: The path to a service account P12/PKCS12 key file. You can download this in the same way as a JSON key, just select "P12 Key" as your "Key type" when downloading.OAUTH2CLIENT_TEST_P12_KEY_EMAIL
: The service account email corresponding to the P12/PKCS12 key file.OAUTH2CLIENT_TEST_USER_KEY_PATH
: The path to a JSON key file for a user. If this is not set, the file created by runninggcloud auth login
will be used. Seetests/data/gcloud/application_default_credentials_authorized_user.json
for an example.OAUTH2CLIENT_TEST_USER_KEY_EMAIL
: The user account email corresponding to the user JSON key file.

Examples of these can be found in
scripts/local_test_setup.sample
. We recommend copying this toscripts/local_test_setup
, editing the values and sourcing them into your environment:$ source scripts/local_test_setup
