Missing config in example scripts and documentation
Closed this issue · 2 comments
Hello, I was reading the docs and I couldn't run any of the provided simple scripts. I then tried to dig into the repository and found that neither the following test could run
tests/examples/tests-readme.npf
Giving me the following error, as in the scripts of the documentation:
This npf script has no default repository
I found that the tests/examples/math.npf has this particular line of code that actually solves the above error.
%config
default_repo=local //No program under test
I would propose to include this line to the broken tests and provide some paragraph in the documentation about the local repo.
Thank you.
(I know it is a minor thing, but as someone coming in first contact with your (really interesting) tool, I find the ability to run simple scripts and build knowledge to be useful).
Hi!
No worries, making the on-boarding as easy as possible is very important !
The examples should give local
in the command line or reference only tests with default_repo=local
.
Where is there one of them missing?
Thanks!

Well I followed the readthedocs. There wasn't a section regarding running tests, only writing them (https://npf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tests.html). So I assumed I should follow the format described in the main README.md file, when describing npf-run.
Can you elaborate on giving local
in the command line? I think an example of how to run the simple scripts in readthedocs would be adequate and could also be inserted in the docs.
