TerminusDB Documentation + Django DRF API Tracking

IMPORTANT UPDATE: About #COVID19

As the situation evolved and we have the safety of the participants in mind, this sprint will be FULL REMOTE.

Just join the Zoom for participation and Discord server for chat and collaboration.

We won’t let the virus stop us from contribute to open-source (actually what is better than contributing when you are stying at home)?

We have 2 projects at this sprint:

TerminusDB - documentation

The first one is help writing docstrings for the Python client library of TerminusDB. The library consist of an API (which uses requests a lot), a query language (yup, query language in Python) and tools to work with pandas DataFrame.

They use the same format of docstrings as numpy and pandas so it will be a good practice for writing docstrings without the stress of contributing to a huge project. (I can assure you your PR will be reviewed quickly).

List of methods that need documentation is listed here.

You can also have a look at their GitHub repo and issues.

DRF API Tracking

DRF API Tracking provides a Django model and DRF view mixin that work together to log Django Rest Framework requests to the database. You’ll get these attributes for every request/response cycle to a view that uses the mixin.

Have a look at their GitHub repo and issues.

You can choose either one project to work on (or both if you know what you are doing :-P)

For beginners in open-source, we will have a beginners table for making your first pull request on GitHub.

As usual, we will give priority to join the sprint to the people who:

• Experienced open source contributors
• People from underrepresented minorities in our sprints

There is no limit on remote participation.
