Once you implement and test your feature or bug-fix, please submit a Pull Request to https://github.com/bigdata-ustc/EduData
The followings are some helpful guidelines for different types contribution:
Currently, we only provide the downloading interface for the website http://base.ustc.edu.cn/data/.
If you try to add a new dataset, you should first upload the dataset to the website, and then complete two things:
- create the key-value pair in
URL_DICTofdownload_data.py - run
pytestto test whether all test cases go well
Q: I have carefully test the code in my local system (all testing passed) but still failed in online ci?
A: There are two possible reasons:
- the online ci system is different from your local system;
- there are some network error causing the downloading test failed, which you can find in the ci log.
For the second reason, all you need to do is to retry the test.
