= Trac Coding Style =

Like most Python projects, we try to adhere to [http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0008.html PEP 8 (Style Guide for Python Code)]. Be sure to read that document if you intend to contribute code to Trac.

Note that some of the current Trac code violates a couple of the rules below. We are currently in the process of refactoring the offending modules so that all code uses the same conventions.

== Naming conventions ==

 * Package and module names should be all lower-case, words ''may'' be separated by underscores.
 * Class names use CamelCase.
 * The names of functions, variables and class members use all lower-case, with words separated by underscores.
 * Internal methods and variables are prefixed with a single underscore.

== Miscellaneous ==
 * Use list comprehension instead of the built-in functions {{{filter()}}} and {{{map()}}}.
